Reliability-aware Cross-sample Enhancement for Robust Multimodal Sentiment Analysis

Reliability-aware Cross-sample Enhancement (RCE) is a framework for multimodal sentiment analysis that tackles noise and missing modalities by first applying an adaptive variational information bottleneck to compress unreliable modality information. It then retrieves high‑confidence, semantically consistent neighbors from a large candidate pool to enrich current representations, and finally fuses cross‑modal interactions through a multilevel reliability‑aware mechanism. Experiments show RCE consistently outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods in full, noisy, and missing‑modality scenarios.

Affect-Prototype Guided Fusion for Open-Vocabulary Incomplete Multi-modal Emotion Recognition

The paper introduces Affect-Prototype Guided Fusion (APCF), a framework for open‑vocabulary multimodal emotion recognition that handles incomplete and unsynchronized modal data. APCF builds an affect‑prototype library to model how different emotions contribute across modalities, enabling dynamic fusion of available features. The fused representations are then decoded by an LLM to generate open‑vocabulary emotion labels, achieving superior performance on OV‑MERD+ and MER‑FG datasets compared to existing methods.

Robust Multimodal Sentiment Analysis with Incomplete Modalities via Semantic-aware Completeness based Reconstruction

The paper presents a method for robust multimodal sentiment analysis that handles incomplete or noisy modalities. It introduces a completeness estimation technique to measure how much sentiment-relevant information remains in partial data, guiding the reconstruction of missing semantics. A joint training strategy stabilizes multi-task learning for sentiment prediction and completeness estimation, and experiments on three benchmark datasets show improved semantic reconstruction and sentiment accuracy.

Enhancing Multimodal Emotion Recognition via Multi-Feature Encoding and Attention-Based Fusion

The paper introduces a multimodal emotion recognition framework that combines audio and visual feature extraction with an attention-based fusion strategy. Audio features include Wav2Vec2 embeddings, MFCCs, and statistical acoustic descriptors, fused via a BiLSTM, while video features are extracted using a ResNet50-BiLSTM architecture. A multi-head attention mechanism fuses these modalities, and experiments on MELD and IEMOCAP show significant accuracy and robustness gains, especially in unbalanced data settings.
