Hölder++: Improving Quality-Coherence Trade-off in Multimodal VAEs
ICML 2026poster
Existing approaches for multimodal variational autoencoders (VAEs) face a trade-off between generative quality and coherence—i.e., they struggle to generate realistic and diverse samples that, at the same time, are semantically consistent across modalities. A recent work shows that using a simple ap…
