• Abstract summary: This paper introduces a new multimodal dataset with cognitive and emotional triggers to explore how regulations affect interactions during the collaborative process. A learning task with intentional interventions is designed and assigned to high school students aged 15 years old. Analysis of annotated emotions, body gestures, and their interactions indicates that our dataset with designed treatments could effectively examine moments of regulation in collaborative learning.

• Abstract: Collaborative learning is an educational approach that enhances learning through shared goals and working together. Interaction and regulation are two essential factors related to the success of collaborative learning. Since the information from various modalities can reflect the quality of collaboration, a new multimodal dataset with cognitive and emotional triggers is introduced in this paper to explore how regulations affect interactions during the collaborative process. Specifically, a learning task with intentional interventions is designed and assigned to high school students aged 15 years old (N=81) in average. Multimodal signals, including video, Kinect, audio, and physiological data, are collected and exploited to study regulations in collaborative learning in terms of individual-participant-single-modality, individual-participant-multiple-modality, and multiple-participant-multiple-modality. Analysis of annotated emotions, body gestures, and their interactions indicates that our multimodal dataset with designed treatments could effectively examine moments of regulation in collaborative learning. In addition, preliminary experiments based on baseline models suggest that the dataset provides a challenging in-the-wild scenario, which could further contribute to the fields of education and affective computing.

  We introduce a theoretical foundation for understanding the differences between multi-modal and single-modal contrastive learning. We identify the critical factor, which is the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), that impacts the generalizability in downstream tasks of both multi-modal and single-modal contrastive learning. Our analysis provides a unified framework that can characterize the optimization and generalization of both single-modal and multi-modal contrastive learning.

We derive from the iterated prisoner's dilemma a novel explanation for how and when cooperation arises among self-interested learning-aware agents.

  We introduce Contrastive MultiModal learning strategy that enables the communication between modalities in a single multimodal space. Our theoretical analysis shows that shared, synergistic and unique terms of information naturally emerge from this formulation, allowing us to estimate multimodal interactions beyond redundancy. In the latter, CoMM learns complex multimodal interactions and achieves state-of-the-art results on the six multimodal benchmarks.

We propose a method for integrating and aligning the information from different modalities by utilizing the relational structural similarities between the data points in each modality.
