Multimodal Unlearning Across Vision, Language, Video, and Audio: Survey of Methods, Datasets, and Benchmarks

arXiv:2607. 07907v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: With the growing adoption of VLMs, DMs, LLMs, and AFMs, these multimodal foundation models can inadvertently encode sensitive, copyrighted, biased, or unsafe cross-modal associations that originate from their training data.

Quality-Aware Multimodal Fusion Reveals Implicit Identity in Valence-Arousal Features

Conventional face recognition relies on static appearance cues and degrades in unconstrained settings with expression variation, occlusion, and poor lighting. We hypothesize that audiovisual expression dynamics carry identity-discriminative information complementary to static appearance, and that extracting this signal requires multimodal representations robust to the variable input quality of in-the-wild video.

MVEB: Massive Video Embedding Benchmark

arXiv:2606. 14958v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce the Massive Video Embedding Benchmark (MVEB), a 23-task benchmark for video embeddings spanning classification, zero-shot classification, clustering, pair classification, retrieval, and video-centric question answering.
