Challenge: Existing multimodal fusion methods ignore inter-modality relationship, treat each modality equally, suffer sensor noise, and thus reduce multimodal learning performance.
Approach: They propose a multimodal contrastive method to explore more reliable multimodal representations under the weak supervision of unimodal predicting.
Outcome: The proposed method outperforms current state-of-the-art multimodal learning methods on image-text classification benchmarks UPMC-Food-101 and N24News.
