New I2-KAN framework improves multimodal sentiment analysis interpretation

Researchers have developed I$^2$-KAN, a novel framework for multimodal sentiment analysis that disentangles intra-modal and inter-modal information pathways. This approach uses a Task-Decoupled Linear-Gated Denoising Bottleneck to refine representations and Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks for fusion, allowing for multi-level interpretation. Experiments on CMU-MOSI, CMU-MOSEI, and CH-SIMS v2 datasets show that a modality's standalone predictive utility does not always correlate with its utility when conditioned on interactions, highlighting the importance of considering both perspectives. AI

IMPACT Enhances interpretability in multimodal AI, potentially improving how sentiment is analyzed across different data types.

    I$^2$-KAN: Interpretable Intra- and Inter-Modal Multi-Pathway Representation Learning for Multimodal Sentiment Analysis

    arXiv:2610.31087v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal sentiment analysis (MSA) aims to infer sentiment by integrating linguistic, acoustic, and visual information. However, many fusion methods integrate modality-specific representations and cross-modal interactions into join…
