Previous works addressing this task focus on exploring sophisticated fusion techniques to enhance performance. However, the inherent heterogeneity of distinct modalities remains a core problem that brings challenges in fusing and coordinating the multi-modal signals at both the representational level and the informational level, impeding the full exploitation of multi-modal information. To address this problem, we propose the Multi-modal Information Disentanglement (MInD) method, which decomposes the multi-modal inputs into modality-invariant and modality-specific components through a shared encoder and multiple private encoders. Furthermore, by explicitly training generated noise in an adversarial manner, MInD is able to isolate uninformativeness, thus improves the learned representations. Therefore, the proposed disentangled decomposition allows for a fusion process that is simpler than alternative methods and results in improved performance. Experimental evaluations conducted on representative benchmark datasets demonstrate MInD's effectiveness in both multi-modal emotion recognition and multi-modal humor detection tasks. Code will be released upon acceptance of the paper.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.11818v2","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2401.11818v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"mind-improving-multimodal-sentiment-analysis","repo_url":"https://github.com/weeeichen/mind","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"pytorch","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=2401.11818","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
