arXiv:2601. 07565v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multimodal emotion understanding requires the integration of heterogeneous data sources, including text, audio, and visual modalities, while simultaneously addressing discrete emotion recognition and continuous sentiment analysis.
The paper proposes a Mixture-of-Bottleneck (MoB) framework for video-based multimodal sentiment analysis that treats sentiment as an ordinal regression problem, splitting it into polarity recognition and intensity prediction. MoB assigns modality‑specific latent experts to each sub‑task, learns compact, task‑relevant representations via an information bottleneck, and fuses these experts with a multimodal bottleneck routing module and hard mining strategy. Experiments on four datasets and language models demonstrate that MoB captures fine‑grained intra‑ and inter‑modal dynamics, improving performance and enabling more trustworthy localization of nuanced sentiment signals.

ReH-FUSE is a reliability‑aware hierarchical fusion framework for multimodal emotion recognition in conversation. It uses a decision‑level router to first compare the relative preference between text and audio, then balances this unimodal mixture with a cross‑modal expert, thereby separating unimodal competition from cross‑modal selection. Experiments on IEMOCAP and MELD show that ReH-FUSE achieves state‑of‑the‑art weighted and macro F1 scores, and ablation studies confirm that learned routing outperforms uniform expert averaging and benefits from cross‑modal interaction.

arXiv:2607. 10599v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal sentiment analysis relies on language, visual, and acoustic cues, but utterance-level modality quality may vary due to occlusion, background noise, motion blur, or imperfect transcripts, causing conventional fusion to over-trust unreliable modalities.
