Resolving Multi-Modal Regression by Difference-Quotient-Based Clustering:Fast Coarse Conditional-Label Assignment

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper introduces Difference‑Quotient Clustering (DQC) to address mean‑collapse in multimodal regression. DQC partitions data by minimizing intra‑cluster output‑vs‑input discrepancy, assigning each sample to the cluster with the lowest maximum contradiction ratio. The resulting cluster labels train a logits generator and conditional network, achieving lower minimum squared error on synthetic benchmarks compared to random labeling and mean‑collapse baselines.

When to Align, When to Predict: A Phase Diagram for Multimodal Learning

arXiv:2606. 11190v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cross-modal alignment (CA) and cross-modal prediction (CP) are the dominant paradigms for multimodal representation learning, yet there is no systematic understanding of when each succeeds, when each fails, and when cross-modal training helps at all -- a gap that leaves practitioners, especially in scientific domains like biomedicine or astrophysics, with heterogeneous instruments and multiple levels of organization and measurement, unable to diagnose why standard methods underperform the best single modality.

When to Align, When to Predict: A Phase Diagram for Multimodal Learning

Cross-modal alignment (CA) and cross-modal prediction (CP) are the dominant paradigms for multimodal representation learning, yet there is no systematic understanding of when each succeeds, when each fails, and when cross-modal training helps at all -- a gap that leaves practitioners, especially in scientific domains like biomedicine or astrophysics, with heterogeneous instruments and multiple levels of organization and measurement, unable to diagnose why standard methods underperform the best single modality. We develop a unified linear framework that addresses both questions.

Unsupervised Learning for Missing Modalities in Multimodal Learning

arXiv:2606. 15743v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper addresses the missing-modality challenge in multi-modal learning by introducing Unsupervised Learning for Missing Modalities in Multi-Modal Learning (UL4M4), a flexible framework that imputes missing feature embeddings in a task-independent manner before supervised prediction.
