DeepCU: Integrating both Common and Unique Latent Information for Multimodal Sentiment Analysis
© 2019 International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence. All rights reserved. Multimodal sentiment analysis combines information available from visual, textual, and acoustic representations for sentiment prediction. The recent multimodal fusion schemes combine multiple modalities as a tensor and obtain either; the common information by utilizing neural networks, or the unique information by modeling low-rank representation of the tensor. However, both of these information are essential as they render inter-modal and intra-modal relationships of the data. In this research, we first propose a novel deep architecture to extract the common information from the multi-mode representations. Furthermore, we propose unique networks to obtain the modality-specific information that enhances the generalization performance of our multimodal system. Finally, we integrate these two aspects of information via a fusion layer and propose a novel multimodal data fusion architecture, which we call DeepCU (Deep network with both Common and Unique latent information). The proposed DeepCU consolidates the two networks for joint utilization and discovery of all-important latent information. Comprehensive experiments are conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of utilizing both common and unique information discovered by DeepCU on multiple real-world datasets.

Multimodal Content Analysis for Effective Advertisements on YouTube
The rapid advances in e-commerce and Web 2.0 technologies have greatly
increased the impact of commercial advertisements on the general public. As a
key enabling technology, a multitude of recommender systems exists which
analyzes user features and browsing patterns to recommend appealing
advertisements to users. In this work, we seek to study the characteristics or
attributes that characterize an effective advertisement and recommend a useful
set of features to aid the designing and production processes of commercial
advertisements. We analyze the temporal patterns from multimedia content of
advertisement videos including auditory, visual and textual components, and
study their individual roles and synergies in the success of an advertisement.
The objective of this work is then to measure the effectiveness of an
advertisement, and to recommend a useful set of features to advertisement
designers to make it more successful and approachable to users. Our proposed
framework employs the signal processing technique of cross modality feature
learning where data streams from different components are employed to train
separate neural network models and are then fused together to learn a shared
representation. Subsequently, a neural network model trained on this joint
feature embedding representation is utilized as a classifier to predict
advertisement effectiveness. We validate our approach using subjective ratings
from a dedicated user study, the sentiment strength of online viewer comments,
and a viewer opinion metric of the ratio of the Likes and Views received by
each advertisement from an online platform.Comment: 11 pages, 5 figures, ICDM 201
Sentiment Recognition in Egocentric Photostreams
Lifelogging is a process of collecting rich source of information about daily
life of people. In this paper, we introduce the problem of sentiment analysis
in egocentric events focusing on the moments that compose the images recalling
positive, neutral or negative feelings to the observer. We propose a method for
the classification of the sentiments in egocentric pictures based on global and
semantic image features extracted by Convolutional Neural Networks. We carried
out experiments on an egocentric dataset, which we organized in 3 classes on
the basis of the sentiment that is recalled to the user (positive, negative or
neutral)
