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.
The paper introduces Emo-DVS, a large-scale, multimodal dataset combining event camera, audio, and text data for emotion recognition, designed to mitigate privacy concerns associated with RGB cameras. It proposes the Information‑Guided Gated Fusion (IGF) framework, which pre‑trains an event encoder on the dataset’s FAU subset, adaptively gates modalities to reduce noise, and aligns cross‑modal representations via mutual information maximization. Experiments show that IGF outperforms existing methods on this challenging tri‑modal benchmark.
The paper introduces a generalized multimodal foundation model that can handle arbitrary combinations of modalities and prediction tasks. It trains on large-scale synthetic multimodal datasets with diverse causal structures to learn transferable multimodal correlations. Experiments on 18 real-world datasets across 12 modalities and 11 tasks show competitive performance compared to specialized models without task-specific adaptation.
The paper introduces Fusion Anything Model (FAM), a foundation model designed for generalized multimodal data fusion that can handle arbitrary modality combinations and prediction tasks. FAM is trained on large-scale synthetic multimodal datasets generated via Structural Multimodal Causal Models (SMCMs), enabling it to encode transferable multimodal correlations. Experiments on 18 real-world datasets across 12 modalities and 11 tasks show that FAM performs competitively with specialized models without requiring task-specific adaptation.
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.
The paper introduces an end‑to‑end framework for personalized audio‑driven facial motion that operates in real time without look‑ahead. It combines a causal multi‑resolution motion tokenizer, which captures both global temporal context and fine articulatory details, with a multi‑modal style retriever that pulls stylistic priors from arbitrary reference footage using ongoing audio and motion queries. This approach allows high‑fidelity, identity‑consistent animation from just a few casually recorded clips, outperforming existing methods in lip‑sync accuracy, identity consistency, and perceived realism while maintaining real‑time streaming constraints.
