Improving Multimodal Fusion with Hierarchical Mutual Information Maximization for Multimodal Sentiment Analysis

This repository contains the official implementation code of the paper Improving Multimodal Fusion with Hierarchical Mutual Information Maximization for Multimodal Sentiment Analysis, accepted to EMNLP 2021.

🔥 If you would be interested in other multimodal works in our DeCLaRe Lab, welcome to visit the clustered repository

Introduction

Multimodal-informax (MMIM) synthesizes fusion results from multi-modality input through a two-level mutual information (MI) maximization. We use BA (Barber-Agakov) lower bound and contrastive predictive coding as the target function to be maximized. To facilitate the computation, we design an entropy estimation module with associated history data memory to facilitate the computation of BA lower bound and the training process.

Usage

1. Download the CMU-MOSI and CMU-MOSEI dataset from Google Drive or Baidu Disk. Please them under the folder Multimodal-Infomax/datasets

2. Set up the environment (need conda prerequisite)

conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate MMIM

3. Start training

python main.py --dataset mosi --contrast

Bi-Bimodal Modality Fusion for Correlation-Controlled Multimodal Sentiment Analysis

This repository contains official implementation of the paper: Bi-Bimodal Modality Fusion for Correlation-Controlled Multimodal Sentiment Analysis (ICMI 2021)

Model Architecture

Overview of our Bi-Bimodal Fusion Network (BBFN). It learns two text-related pairs of representations, text-acoustic and text-visual by enforcing each pair of modalities to complement mutually. Finally, the four (two pairs) head representations are concatenated to generate the final prediction.

A single complementation layer: two identical pipelines (left and right) propagate the main modality and fuse that with complementary modality with regularization and gated control.

Results

Results on the test set of CMU-MOSI and CMU-MOSEI dataset. Notation: △ indicates results in the corresponding line are excerpted from previous papers; † means the results are reproduced with publicly visible source code and applicable hyperparameter setting; ‡ shows the results have experienced paired t-test with 𝑝 < 0.05 and demonstrate significant improvement over MISA, the state-of-the-art model.

Usage

1. Set up conda environemnt

conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate BBFN

2. Install CMU Multimodal SDK

3. Set sdk_dir in src/config.py to the path of CMU-MultimodalSDK

4. Train the model

cd src
python main.py --dataset <dataset_name> --data_path <path_to_dataset>

We provide a script scripts/run.sh for your reference.

Attention-based multimodal fusion for sentiment analysis

Attention-based multimodal fusion for sentiment analysis

Code for the paper

Context-Dependent Sentiment Analysis in User-Generated Videos (ACL 2017).

Multi-level Multiple Attentions for Contextual Multimodal Sentiment Analysis(ICDM 2017).

Preprocessing

Edit: the create_data.py is obsolete. The pre-processed datasets have already been provided in the dataset/ folder in the repo. Use them directly.

As data is typically present in utterance format, we combine all the utterances belonging to a video using the following code

python create_data.py

Note: This will create speaker independent train and test splits In dataset/mosei, extract the zip into a folder named 'raw'. Also, extract 'unimodal_mosei_3way.pickle.zip'

Running the model

Sample command:

With attention-based fusion:

python run.py --unimodal True --fusion True
python run.py --unimodal False --fusion True

Without attention-based and with concatenation-based fusion:

python run.py --unimodal True --fusion False
python run.py --unimodal False --fusion False

Utterance level attention:

python run.py --unimodal False --fusion True --attention_2 True
python run.py --unimodal False --fusion True --attention_2 True

Note:

1. Keeping the unimodal flag as True (default False) shall train all unimodal lstms first (level 1 of the network mentioned in the paper)
2. Setting --fusion True applies only to multimodal network.

Datasets:

We provide results on the MOSI, MOSEI and IEMOCAP datasets.
Please cite the creators.

Context-Dependent Sentiment Analysis in User Generated Videos

Code for the paper Context-Dependent Sentiment Analysis in User-Generated Videos (ACL 2017).

Requirements

Code is written in Python (2.7) and requires Keras (2.0.6) with Theano backend.

Description

In this paper, we propose a LSTM-based model that enables utterances to capture contextual information from their surroundings in the same video, thus aiding the classification process in multimodal sentiment analysis.

This repository contains the code for the mentioned paper. Each contextual LSTM (Figure 2 in the paper) is implemented as shown in above figure. For more details, please refer to the paper.
Note: Unlike the paper, we haven't used an SVM on the penultimate layer. This is in effort to keep the whole network differentiable at some performance cost.

Dataset

We provide results on the MOSI dataset
Please cite the creators

Preprocessing

As data is typically present in utterance format, we combine all the utterances belonging to a video using the following code

python create_data.py

Note: This will create speaker independent train and test splits

Running sc-lstm

Sample command:

python lstm.py --unimodal True
python lstm.py --unimodal False

Note: Keeping the unimodal flag as True (default False) shall train all unimodal lstms first (level 1 of the network mentioned in the paper)

Tensor Fusion Network (TFN)

IMPORTANT NOTICE

The CMU-MultimodalSDK on which this repo depend has drastically changed its API since this code is written. Hence the code in this repo cannot be run off-the-shelf anymore. However, the code for the model itself can still be of reference.

Tensor Fusion Networks

This is a PyTorch implementation of:

Zadeh, Amir, et al. "Tensor fusion network for multimodal sentiment analysis." EMNLP 2017 Oral.

It requires PyTorch and the CMU Multimodal Data SDK (https://github.com/A2Zadeh/CMU-MultimodalDataSDK) to function properly. The training data (CMU-MOSI dataset) will be automatically downloaded if you run the script for the first time.

The model is defined in model.py, and the training script is train.py. Here's a list of commandline arguments for train.py:

--dataset: default is 'MOSI', currently don't really support other datasets. Just ignore this option

--epochs: max number of epochs, default is 50

--batch_size: batch size, default is 32

--patience: specifies the early stopping condition, similar to that in Keras, default 20

--cuda: whether or not to use GPU, default False

--model_path: a string that specifies the location for storing trained models, default='models'

--max_len: max sequence length when preprocessing data, default=20

In a nutshell, you can train the model using the following command:

python train.py --epochs 100 --patience 10

The script starts with a randomly selected set of hyper-parameters. If you want to tune it, you can change them yourself in the script.

Low rank Multimodal Fusion

This is the repository for "Efficient Low-rank Multimodal Fusion with Modality-Specific Factors", Liu and Shen, et. al. ACL 2018.

Dependencies

Python 2.7 (now experimentally has Python 3.6+ support)

torch=0.3.1
sklearn
numpy

You can install the libraries via python -m pip install -r requirements.txt.

Data for Experiments

The processed data for the experiments (CMU-MOSI, IEMOCAP, POM) can be downloaded here:

https://drive.google.com/open?id=1CixSaw3dpHESNG0CaCJV6KutdlANP_cr

To run the code, you should download the pickled datasets and put them in the data directory.

Note that there might be NaN values in acoustic features, you could replace them with 0s.

Training Your Model

To run the code for experiments (grid search), use the scripts train_xxx.py. They have some commandline arguments as listed here:

`--run_id`: an user-specified unique ID to ensure that saved results/models don't override each other.

`--epochs`: the number of maximum epochs in training. Since early-stopping is used to prevent overfitting, in actual training the number of epochs could be less than what you specify here.

`--patience`: if the model performance does not improve in `--patience` many validation evaluations consecutively, the training will early-stop.

`output_dim`: output dimension of the model. Default value in each script should work.

`signiture`: an optional string that's added to the output file name. Intended to use as some sort of comment.

`cuda`: whether or not to use GPU in training. If not specified, will use CPU.

`data_path`: the path to the data directory. Defaults to './data', but if you prefer storing the data else where you can change this.

`model_path`: the path to the directory where models will be saved.

`output_path`: the path to the directory where the grid search results will be saved.

`max_len`: the maximum length of training data sequences. Longer/shorter sequences will be truncated/padded.

`emotion`: (exclusive for IEMOCAP) specifies which emotion category you want to train the model to predict. Can be 'happy', 'sad', 'angry', 'neutral'.

An example would be

python train_mosi.py --run_id 19260817 --epochs 50 --patience 20 --output_dim 1 --signiture test_run_big_model

Introduction

Multimodal EmotionLines Dataset (MELD) has been created by enhancing and extending EmotionLines dataset. MELD contains the same dialogue instances available in EmotionLines, but it also encompasses audio and visual modality along with text. MELD has more than 1400 dialogues and 13000 utterances from Friends TV series. Multiple speakers participated in the dialogues. Each utterance in a dialogue has been labeled by any of these seven emotions -- Anger, Disgust, Sadness, Joy, Neutral, Surprise and Fear. MELD also has sentiment (positive, negative and neutral) annotation for each utterance.

Example Dialogue

Purpose

Multimodal data analysis exploits information from multiple-parallel data channels for decision making. With the rapid growth of AI, multimodal emotion recognition has gained a major research interest, primarily due to its potential applications in many challenging tasks, such as dialogue generation, multimodal interaction etc. A conversational emotion recognition system can be used to generate appropriate responses by analysing user emotions. Although there are numerous works carried out on multimodal emotion recognition, only a very few actually focus on understanding emotions in conversations. However, their work is limited only to dyadic conversation understanding and thus not scalable to emotion recognition in multi-party conversations having more than two participants. EmotionLines can be used as a resource for emotion recognition for text only, as it does not include data from other modalities such as visual and audio. At the same time, it should be noted that there is no multimodal multi-party conversational dataset available for emotion recognition research. In this work, we have extended, improved, and further developed EmotionLines dataset for the multimodal scenario. Emotion recognition in sequential turns has several challenges and context understanding is one of them. The emotion change and emotion flow in the sequence of turns in a dialogue make accurate context modelling a difficult task. In this dataset, as we have access to the multimodal data sources for each dialogue, we hypothesise that it will improve the context modelling thus benefiting the overall emotion recognition performance. This dataset can also be used to develop a multimodal affective dialogue system. IEMOCAP, SEMAINE are multimodal conversational datasets which contain emotion label for each utterance. However, these datasets are dyadic in nature, which justifies the importance of our Multimodal-EmotionLines dataset. The other publicly available multimodal emotion and sentiment recognition datasets are MOSEI, MOSI, MOUD. However, none of those datasets is conversational.

Dataset Creation

The first step deals with finding the timestamp of every utterance in each of the dialogues present in the EmotionLines dataset. To accomplish this, we crawled through the subtitle files of all the episodes which contains the beginning and the end timestamp of the utterances. This process enabled us to obtain season ID, episode ID, and timestamp of each utterance in the episode. We put two constraints whilst obtaining the timestamps: (a) timestamps of the utterances in a dialogue must be in increasing order, (b) all the utterances in a dialogue have to belong to the same episode and scene. Constraining with these two conditions revealed that in EmotionLines, a few dialogues consist of multiple natural dialogues. We filtered out those cases from the dataset. Because of this error correction step, in our case, we have the different number of dialogues as compare to the EmotionLines. After obtaining the timestamp of each utterance, we extracted their corresponding audio-visual clips from the source episode. Separately, we also took out the audio content from those video clips. Finally, the dataset contains visual, audio, and textual modality for each dialogue.

Description of Raw Data

• There are 3 folders (.tar.gz files)-train, dev and test; each of which corresponds to video clips from the utterances in the 3 .csv files.
• In any folder, each video clip in the raw data corresponds to one utterance in the corresponding .csv file. The video clips are named in the format: diaX1_uttX2.mp4, where X1 is the Dialogue_ID and X2 is the Utterance_ID as provided in the corresponding .csv file, denoting the particular utterance.
• For example, consider the video clip dia6_utt1.mp4 in train.tar.gz. The corresponding utterance for this video clip will be in the file train_sent_emp.csv with Dialogue_ID=6 and Utterance_ID=1, which is 'You liked it? You really liked it?'

Reading the Data

There are 2 python scripts provided in './utils/':

• read_meld.py - displays the path of the video file corresponding to an utterance in the .csv file from MELD.
• read_emorynlp - displays the path of the video file corresponding to an utterance in the .csv file from Multimodal EmoryNLP Emotion Detection dataset.

Labelling

For experimentation, all the labels are represented as one-hot encodings, the indices for which are as follows:

• Emotion - {'neutral': 0, 'surprise': 1, 'fear': 2, 'sadness': 3, 'joy': 4, 'disgust': 5, 'anger': 6}. Therefore, the label corresponding to the emotion 'joy' would be [0., 0., 0., 0., 1., 0., 0.]
• Sentiment - {'neutral': 0, 'positive': 1, 'negative': 2}. Therefore, the label corresponding to the sentiment 'positive' would be [0., 1., 0.]

Class Weights

For the baseline on emotion classification, the following class weights were used. The indexing is the same as mentioned above. Class Weights: [4.0, 15.0, 15.0, 3.0, 1.0, 6.0, 3.0].

Run the baseline

Please follow these steps to run the baseline -

1. Download the features from here.
2. Copy these features into ./data/pickles/
3. To train/test the baseline model, run the file: baseline/baseline.py as follows:
   • python baseline.py -classify [Sentiment|Emotion] -modality [text|audio|bimodal] [-train|-test]
   • example command to train text unimodal for sentiment classification: python baseline.py -classify Sentiment -modality text -train
   • use python baseline.py -h to get help text for the parameters.
4. For pre-trained models, download the model weights from here and place the pickle files inside ./data/models/.

Multimodal EmoryNLP Emotion Recognition Dataset

---

Description

Multimodal EmoryNLP Emotion Detection Dataset has been created by enhancing and extending EmoryNLP Emotion Detection dataset. It contains the same dialogue instances available in EmoryNLP Emotion Detection dataset, but it also encompasses audio and visual modality along with text. There are more than 800 dialogues and 9000 utterances from Friends TV series exist in the multimodal EmoryNLP dataset. Multiple speakers participated in the dialogues. Each utterance in a dialogue has been labeled by any of these seven emotions -- Neutral, Joyful, Peaceful, Powerful, Scared, Mad and Sad. The annotations are borrowed from the original dataset.

Data

Video clips of this dataset can be download from this link. The annotation files can be found in https://github.com/SenticNet/MELD/tree/master/data/emorynlp. There are 3 .csv files. Each entry in the first column of these csv files contain an utterance whose corresponding video clip can be found here. Each utterance and its video clip is indexed by the season no., episode no., scene id and utterance id. For example, sea1_ep2_sc6_utt3.mp4 implies the clip corresponds to the utterance with season no. 1, episode no. 2, scene_id 6 and utterance_id 3. A scene is simply a dialogue. This indexing is consistent with the original dataset. The .csv files and the video files are divided into the train, validation and test set in accordance with the original dataset. Annotations have been directly borrowed from the original EmoryNLP dataset (Zahiri et al. (2018)).

Description of the .csv files

Column Specification

Column Name	Description
Utterance	Individual utterances from EmoryNLP as a string.
Speaker	Name of the speaker associated with the utterance.
Emotion	The emotion (Neutral, Joyful, Peaceful, Powerful, Scared, Mad and Sad) expressed by the speaker in the utterance.
Scene_ID	The index of the dialogue starting from 0.
Utterance_ID	The index of the particular utterance in the dialogue starting from 0.
Season	The season no. of Friends TV Show to which a particular utterance belongs.
Episode	The episode no. of Friends TV Show in a particular season to which the utterance belongs.

MUStARD: Multimodal Sarcasm Detection Dataset

This repository contains the dataset and code for our ACL 2019 paper:

Towards Multimodal Sarcasm Detection (An Obviously Perfect Paper)

We release the MUStARD dataset which is a multimodal video corpus for research in automated sarcasm discovery. The dataset is compiled from popular TV shows including Friends, The Golden Girls, The Big Bang Theory, and Sarcasmaholics Anonymous. MUStARD consists of audiovisual utterances annotated with sarcasm labels. Each utterance is accompanied by its context, which provides additional information on the scenario where the utterance occurs.

Example Instance

Example sarcastic utterance from the dataset along with its context and transcript.

Raw Videos

We provide a Google Drive folder with the raw video clips, including both the utterances and their respective context

Data Format

The annotations and transcripts of the audiovisual clips are available at data/sarcasm_data.json. Each instance in the JSON file is allotted one identifier (e.g. "1_60") which is a dictionary of the following items:

Key	Value
utterance	The text of the target utterance to classify.
speaker	Speaker of the target utterance.
context	List of utterances (in chronological order) preceding the target utterance.
context_speakers	Respective speakers of the context utterances.
sarcasm	Binary label for sarcasm tag.

Example format in JSON:

{
  "1_60": {
    "utterance": "It's just a privilege to watch your mind at work.",
    "speaker": "SHELDON",
    "context": [
      "I never would have identified the fingerprints of string theory in the aftermath of the Big Bang.",
      "My apologies. What's your plan?"
    ],
    "context_speakers": [
      "LEONARD",
      "SHELDON"
    ],
    "sarcasm": true
  }
}

M2H2: A Multimodal Multiparty Hindi Dataset For Humor Recognition in Conversations

⚡ ⚡ ⚡ Baseline Codes will be released soon!

🔥🔥🔥 Read the paper

The M2H2 dataset is compiled from a famous TV show "Shrimaan Shrimati Phir Se" (Total of 4.46 hours in length) and annotated them manually. We make groups of these samples (utterances) based on their context into scenes. Each utterance in each scene consists of a label indicating humor of that utterance i.e., humor or non-humor. Besides, each utterance is also annotated with its speaker and listener information. In multiparty conversation, listener identification poses a great challenge. In our dataset, we define the listener as the party in the conversation to whom the speaker is replying. Each utterance in each scene is coupled with its context utterances, which are preceding turns by the speakers participating in the conversation. It also contains multi-party conversations that are more challenging to classify than dyadic variants.

Data Format

Text Data

🔥🔥🔥 The Raw-Text/Ep-NUMBER.tsv acts as a master annotation file which does not only contain the textual data but also contains other metadata as described below. It also contains the manually annotated labels of the utterances. Using the Episode id and scene id, one can map the utterances in the Raw-Text folder to the corresponding audio and visual segments in Raw-Audio and Raw-Visual. This should result in multimodal data. The Label column in the TSV files e.g., Raw-Text/Ep-NUMBER.tsv contains the desired manually annotated labels for each utterance.

The text data are stored in TSV format. Each of the file is named as Raw-Text/Ep-NUMBER.tsv. Here the NUMBER is episode number which one should use to map with the corresponding audio and visual segments. The text data contains the following fields:

Scenes: The scene id. It will match the corresponding audio and visual segments.
SI. No.: Utterance number.
Start_time: Start time of the utterance in the video.
End_time: End time of the utterance in the video.
Utterance: The spoken utterance.
Label: The annotated label of the utterance. This can either be humor or non-humor.
Speaker: The format is "Speaker,listener". It has the form of "Speaker_name,utterance_id" e.g., "Dilruba,u3" which means the speaker is Dilruba and he is responding to utterance no. 3. This is particularly useful to resolve coreferences in a multiparty conversation.

Audio Data

Every episode has a dedicated folder e.g., Raw-Audio/22/ contains all the annotated audio samples for Episode no. 22.

For every episode, each scene has a dedicated folder e.g., Raw-Audio/22/Scene_1 contains all the annotated audio samples for Episode no. 22 Scene 1.

Visual Data

Every episode has a dedicated folder e.g., Raw-Visual/22/ contains all the annotated visual samples for Episode no. 22.

For every episode, each scene has a dedicated folder e.g., Raw-Visual/22/Scene_1 contains all the annotated visual samples for Episode no. 22 Scene 1.

Baselines
