Multimodal Aspect-Based Sentiment Analysis (MABSA) aims to extract aspect-sentiment pairs from text and image data. While significant progress has been made in image-aspect alignment, due to the subtlety and complexity of language expressions, there are not always explicit aspect words in the langua…
Multimodal Sentiment Analysis (MSA) integrates diverse modalities to overcome the limitations of unimodal data. However, existing MSA datasets commonly exhibit significant sentiment distribution imbalances and cross-modal sentiment conflicts, which hinder performance improvement. This paper shows th…
Multimodal Sentiment Analysis (MSA) with incomplete data has gained significant attention recently. Existing studies focus on optimizing model structures to handle modality missingness, but models still face challenges in robustness when dealing with uncertain missingness. To this end, we propose a…
Audio-Visual Question Answering (AVQA) is a complex multi-modal reasoning task, demanding intelligent systems to accurately respond to natural language queries based on audio-video input pairs. Nevertheless, prevalent AVQA approaches are prone to overlearning dataset biases, resulting in poor robust…
The goal of multilingual modelling is to generate multilingual text representations for various downstream tasks in different languages. However, some state-of-the-art pre-trained multilingual models perform poorly on many low-resource languages due to the lack of representation space and model capa…
In linguistics, all languages can be considered as symbolic systems, with each language relying on symbolic processes to associate specific symbols with meanings. In the same language, there is a fixed correspondence between linguistic symbol and meaning. In different languages, universal meanings f…
Speaker change detection (SCD) is an important feature that improves the readability of the recognized words from an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system by breaking the word sequence into paragraphs at speaker change points. Existing SCD solutions either require additional ensemble for the tim…
Conditional random fields (CRFs) have been shown to be one of the most successful approaches to sequence labeling. Various linear-chain neural CRFs (NCRFs) are developed to implement the non-linear node potentials in CRFs, but still keeping the linear-chain hidden structure. In this paper, we propos…
