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.

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.

SemMSA introduces a latent semantic‑aided framework for multimodal sentiment analysis that leverages large language models to generate rich sentiment‑relevant semantics. The method employs Cross‑modal Semantic Refinement (CSR) to fuse visual, acoustic, and language features in a frozen LLM embedding space, and Cross‑modal Spectral Alignment (CSA) to align these refined semantics with all modalities via spectral enhancement of kernel Gram matrices. Experiments on SIMS, MOSI, and MOSEI benchmarks show that SemMSA achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance.
