arXiv:2607. 08573v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal emotion and sentiment recognition is commonly addressed by early fusion, which concatenates modalities before classification, or late fusion, which combines independently trained unimodal predictors.

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.
arXiv:2607. 05019v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In multimodal classification, late-fusion approaches classify concatenated modality-specific features extracted by unimodal neural networks.
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:2606. 26473v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Many multimodal systems estimate the reliability of each modality and weight their contributions to the final prediction.
arXiv:2608. 03611v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal Sentiment Analysis (MSA) integrates text, audio, and vision to infer human affect, yet real-world multimodal observations are often incomplete.
arXiv:2607. 27289v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The promise of multimodal fusion lies in combining complementary sources of evidence, yet more evidence does not always yield a better prediction.
