• Abstract summary: This paper proposes a self-supervised training framework that learns a common multimodal embedding space. We extend the concept of instance-level contrastive learning with a multimodal clustering step to capture semantic similarities across modalities. The resulting embedding space enables retrieval of samples across all modalities, even from unseen datasets and different domains.

• Abstract: Multimodal self-supervised learning is getting more and more attention as it allows not only to train large networks without human supervision but also to search and retrieve data across various modalities. In this context, this paper proposes a self-supervised training framework that learns a common multimodal embedding space that, in addition to sharing representations across different modalities, enforces a grouping of semantically similar instances. To this end, we extend the concept of instance-level contrastive learning with a multimodal clustering step in the training pipeline to capture semantic similarities across modalities. The resulting embedding space enables retrieval of samples across all modalities, even from unseen datasets and different domains. To evaluate our approach, we train our model on the HowTo100M dataset and evaluate its zero-shot retrieval capabilities in two challenging domains, namely text-to-video retrieval, and temporal action localization, showing state-of-the-art results on four different datasets.

  In this paper, we employ a Reinforcement Learning framework to simulate the cognitive processes of humans. We also deploy a Member-to-Leader Multi-Agent framework to extract and fuse features from multi-modal information. We demonstrate the performance of our approach in both the 3D and 2D domains by employing the OS-MN40, OS-MN40-Miss, and Cifar10 datasets.

• Preserving Modality Structure Improves Multi-Modal Learning [64.10085674834252]
  Self-supervised learning on large-scale multi-modal datasets allows learning semantically meaningful embeddings without relying on human annotations. These methods often struggle to generalize well on out-of-domain data as they ignore the semantic structure present in modality-specific embeddings. We propose a novel Semantic-Structure-Preserving Consistency approach to improve generalizability by preserving the modality-specific relationships in the joint embedding space.

  Multimodal learning assumes all modality combinations of interest are available during training to learn cross-modal correspondences. We pose the problem of unseen modality interaction and introduce a first solution. It exploits a module that projects the multidimensional features of different modalities into a common space with rich information preserved.

  Learning from fully-unlabeled data is challenging in Multimedia Forensics problems, such as Person Re-Identification and Text Authorship Attribution. Recent self-supervised learning methods have shown to be effective when dealing with fully-unlabeled data in cases where the underlying classes have significant semantic differences. We propose a strategy to tackle Person Re-Identification and Text Authorship Attribution by enabling learning from unlabeled data even when samples from different classes are not prominently diverse.
