• Abstract: Perception of auditory events is inherently multimodal relying on both audio and visual cues. A large number of existing multimodal approaches process each modality using modality-specific models and then fuse the embeddings to encode the joint information. In contrast, we employ heterogeneous graphs to explicitly capture the spatial and temporal relationships between the modalities and represent detailed information about the underlying signal. Using heterogeneous graph approaches to address the task of visually-aware acoustic event classification, which serves as a compact, efficient and scalable way to represent data in the form of graphs. Through heterogeneous graphs, we show efficiently modelling of intra- and inter-modality relationships both at spatial and temporal scales. Our model can easily be adapted to different scales of events through relevant hyperparameters. Experiments on AudioSet, a large benchmark, shows that our model achieves state-of-the-art performance.

  We define a novel Graph-Dictionary signal model, where a finite set of graphs characterizes relationships in data distribution through a weighted sum of their Laplacians. We propose a framework to infer the graph dictionary representation from observed data, along with a bilinear generalization of the primal-dual splitting algorithm to solve the learning problem. We exploit graph-dictionary representations in a motor imagery decoding task on brain activity data, where we classify imagined motion better than standard methods.

Our proposed model can adapt to various spatial and temporal scales owing to its parametric construction, while the learnable crossmodal edges effectively connect the relevant nodes.
