Course content

In this course, we will cover state-of-the-art methods and techniques for the integration and interpretation of data within and across modalities. The course will focus on hybrid audio-visual and text models for various multimodal applications using machine learning and deep learning techniques. Actual topics related to multimodal semantic and contextual data analysis and their applications in audio-visual and text domains will be covered and may include but are not limited to:

- Multimodal architectures, frameworks, and tools

- Multimodal data representation

- Embeddings and Transformers

- Multimodal data fusion

- Semantic and Contextual understanding

-- Case study on multimodal sentiment analysis

-- Case study on clinical natural language processing

-- Case study on speaker identification and recognition
