• Title: Private-Shared Disentangled Multimodal VAE for Learning of Hybrid Latent Representations
• Authors: Mihee Lee, Vladimir Pavlovic
• Abstract summary: We introduce a disentangled multi-modal variational autoencoder (DMVAE) that utilizes disentangled VAE strategy to separate the private and shared latent spaces of multiple modalities. We demonstrate the utility of DMVAE on a semi-supervised learning task, where one of the modalities contains partial data labels. Our experiments on several benchmarks indicate the importance of the private-shared disentanglement as well as the hybrid latent representation.

• Abstract: Multi-modal generative models represent an important family of deep models, whose goal is to facilitate representation learning on data with multiple views or modalities. However, current deep multi-modal models focus on the inference of shared representations, while neglecting the important private aspects of data within individual modalities. In this paper, we introduce a disentangled multi-modal variational autoencoder (DMVAE) that utilizes disentangled VAE strategy to separate the private and shared latent spaces of multiple modalities. We specifically consider the instance where the latent factor may be of both continuous and discrete nature, leading to the family of general hybrid DMVAE models. We demonstrate the utility of DMVAE on a semi-supervised learning task, where one of the modalities contains partial data labels, both relevant and irrelevant to the other modality. Our experiments on several benchmarks indicate the importance of the private-shared disentanglement as well as the hybrid latent representation.

  Devising deep latent variable models for multi-modal data has been a long-standing theme in machine learning research. In this work, we consider a variational objective that can tightly approximate the data log-likelihood. We develop more flexible aggregation schemes that avoid the inductive biases in PoE or MoE approaches.

  Multimodal Variational Autoencoders (VAEs) facilitate the construction of a tractable posterior within the latent space given multiple modalities. Previous studies have shown that as the number of modalities increases, the generative quality of each modality declines. In this study, we explore an alternative approach to enhance the generative performance of multimodal VAEs by jointly modeling the latent space of independently trained unimodal VAEs.

In particular, MCLEA firstly learns multiple individual representations from multiple modalities, and then performs contrastive learning to jointly model intra-modal and inter-modal interactions.

  We develop a contrastive framework for generative model learning, allowing us to train the model not just by the commonality between modalities, but by the distinction between "related" and "unrelated" multimodal data. Under our proposed framework, the generative model can accurately identify related samples from unrelated ones, making it possible to make use of the plentiful unlabeled, unpaired multimodal data.
