• Abstract: Recently multimodal named entity recognition (MNER) has utilized images to improve the accuracy of NER in tweets. However, most of the multimodal methods use attention mechanisms to extract visual clues regardless of whether the text and image are relevant. Practically, the irrelevant text-image pairs account for a large proportion in tweets. The visual clues that are unrelated to the texts will exert uncertain or even negative effects on multimodal model learning. In this paper, we introduce a method of text-image relation propagation into the multimodal BERT model. We integrate soft or hard gates to select visual clues and propose a multitask algorithm to train on the MNER datasets. In the experiments, we deeply analyze the changes in visual attention before and after the use of text-image relation propagation. Our model achieves state-of-the-art performance on the MNER datasets.

  We introduce the text-image interleaved retrieval (TIIR) task, where the query and document are interleaved text-image sequences. We construct a TIIR benchmark based on naturally interleaved wikiHow tutorials, where a specific pipeline is designed to generate interleaved queries. We propose a novel Matryoshka Multimodal Embedder (MME), which compresses the number of visual tokens at different granularity.

  Attribute-based Multimodal Data Augmentation (ARMADA) is a novel multimodal data augmentation method via knowledge-guided manipulation of visual attributes. ARMADA is a novel multimodal data generation framework that: (i) extracts knowledge-grounded attributes from symbolic KBs for semantically consistent yet distinctive image-text pair generation. This also highlights the need to leverage external knowledge proxies for enhanced interpretability and real-world grounding.

  We propose a Multi-view Attention Method (MVAM) for image-text matching. We also incorporate an objective to explicitly encourage attention heads to focus on distinct aspects of the input data. Our method allows models to encode images and text from different perspectives and focus on more critical details, leading to better matching performance.

  Text-to-image person re-identification (TIReID) retrieves pedestrian images of the same identity based on a query text. Existing methods for TIReID typically treat it as a one-to-one image-text matching problem, only focusing on the relationship between image-text pairs within a view. We propose a framework, called LCR$2$S, for modeling many-to-many correspondences of the same identity by learning representations for both modalities from a novel perspective.
