Description
Summary:Multi-modal sentiment analysis extends conventional text-based definition of sentiment analysis to a multi-modal setup where multiple relevant modalities are leveraged to perform sentiment analysis. In real applications, however, acquiring annotated multi-modal data is normally labor expensive and time-consuming. In this paper, we aim to reduce the annotation effort for multi-modal sentiment classification via semi-supervised learning. The key idea is to leverage the semi-supervised variational autoencoders to mine more information from unlabeled data for multi-modal sentiment analysis. Specifically, the mined information includes both the independent knowledge within single modality and the interactive knowledge among different modalities. Empirical evaluation demonstrates the great effectiveness of the proposed semi-supervised approach to multi-modal sentiment classification.
