arXiv:2606. 02679v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal systems often benefit from combining information across language, sound, and visual streams, but this benefit is not guaranteed.

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.

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.

Visible-Infrared Person Re-Identification (VI-ReID) operates under a closed-world assumption, where queries and galleries are from heterogeneous modalities. However, in open-world scenarios, both sets are likely to contain homogeneous and heterogeneous modality images.
arXiv:2606. 04205v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The growing popularity and capacity of generative models have eroded the distinction between human and machine-generated content, motivating a growing body of work on detection across text, images, and audio.

arXiv:2608. 11343v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal retrieval and classification across different types of media, spanning text, images,video and audio, has traditionally relied on dual-encoder models that align visual and textual representations through contrastive learning.

arXiv:2608. 03475v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal intent recognition combines linguistic, acoustic, and visual evidence, but individual modalities may be noisy, missing, semantically conflicting, or disproportionately dominant.

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.
