Multimodal machine translation (MMT) aims to leverage additional modalities to assist in language translation. With limited parallel data, current MMT systems rely heavily on monolingual English captioning data. These systems face three key issues: they often overlook that visual signals are unneces…
Self-supervised pretraining has transformed speech representation learning, enabling models to generalize across various downstream tasks. However, empirical studies have highlighted two notable gaps. First, different speech tasks require varying levels of acoustic and semantic information, which ar…
Previous research has studied the task of segmenting cinematic videos into scenes and into narrative acts. However, these studies have overlooked the essential task of multimodal alignment and fusion for effectively and efficiently processing long-form videos (>60min). In this paper, we introduce Mu…
The International Classification of Diseases (ICD) is a list of classification codes for the diagnoses. Automatic ICD coding is a multi-label text classification problem with noisy clinical document inputs and long-tailed label distribution, making it difficult for fine-grained classification on bot…
Head movement is an integral part of face-to-face communications. It is important to investigate methodologies to generate naturalistic movements for conversational agents (CAs). The predominant method for head movement generation is using rules based on the meaning of the message. However, the vari…
Unsupervised deep hash functions have not shown satisfactory improvements against the shallow alternatives, and usually, require supervised pretraining to avoid getting stuck in bad local minima. In this paper, we propose a deep unsupervised hashing function, called HashGAN, which outperforms unsupe…
