New framework SPIRN tackles incomplete data and noisy labels in cross-modal retrieval

Researchers have developed a new framework called SPIRN to address challenges in cross-modal retrieval (CMR), specifically when dealing with incomplete data across different modalities and noisy labels. SPIRN utilizes fixed semantic priors as a stable reference for learning representations, handling noisy annotations, and completing missing modalities. The framework includes components for semantic space establishment, quality-aware learning to differentiate clean from noisy samples, global label calibration to correct annotations, and selective imputation for recovering missing data. This approach is presented as the first to jointly tackle modality incompleteness and label noise in CMR, demonstrating superior performance over existing methods on benchmark datasets. AI

IMPACT This research could improve the accuracy and robustness of AI systems that need to understand and relate information from different sources, even when the data is imperfect.

    Semantic Prior-Guided Incomplete Cross-Modal Retrieval with Noisy Labels

    arXiv:2611.06113v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cross-modal retrieval (CMR) aims to bridge the semantic gaps between modalities by learning shared representations. Unfortunately, due to the dynamism and inconsistencies in real-world data acquisition, multimodal datasets frequentl…
