arXiv:2607. 03981v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Memes have become influential communication tools on social media, combining viral visuals with concise messaging to convey impactful ideas.
arXiv:2607. 15442v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Internet memes intertwine visual cues, textual content, and cultural context, making them particularly challenging to interpret in scenarios where humor, sarcasm, and harmful intent coexist.
arXiv:2607. 23493v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automated analysis of multimodal content on social networks has become a critical task for understanding public sentiment and information diffusion in the digital age.
Hateful memes are a growing form of multimodal online harm, where hostile intent is often conveyed through the joint interpretation of images, text, cultural references, and implicit targets. While hateful meme detection has advanced in high-resource languages, Arabic remains underexplored, with existing meme resources focusing mainly on propaganda or coarse harmful-content labels.
arXiv:2606. 05316v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal memes are dynamic and often require up to date background knowledge for interpretation.

arXiv:2607. 16076v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal sarcasm and cyberbullying detection remain challenging because the intended meaning often emerges from incongruity between textual and visual information rather than from either modality alone.
arXiv:2607. 06611v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automatically recognizing the sentiment, positive or negative, from speech is a challenging task, requiring both the analysis of vocal inflections and the interpretation of uttered words.
arXiv:2608. 16622v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal harmful meme detection is typically formulated as image--text harmfulness classification.
arXiv:2607. 22709v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The proliferation of internet memes has introduced new complexities to automated content moderation, particularly in detecting misogyny.
Social media videos often communicate meanings that go beyond their visible actions, captions, or speech. A mundane clip may become humorous, ironic, or satire only through the interaction of multimodal cues and cultural context, making such content a difficult test case for video-language models.
arXiv:2606. 15307v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hateful and propagandistic memes exploit the interplay between images and text to convey harmful intent that neither modality reveals alone.
