In recent years, multi-modal sentiment analysis has become more and more popular in the field of natural language processing. Multi-modal sentiment analysis mainly concentrates on text, image and audio information. Previous work based on BERT utilizes only text representation to fine-tune BERT, while ignoring the importance of nonverbal information. Most current research methods are fine-tuning models based on BERT that do not optimize BERT’s internal structure. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an optimized BERT model that is composed of three modules: the Hierarchical Multi-head Self Attention module realizes the hierarchical extraction process of the features; the Gate Channel module replaces BERT’s original Feed-Forward layer to realize information filtering; the tensor fusion model based on self-attention mechanism utilized to implement the fusion process of different modal features. In CMU-MOSI, a public mult-imodal sentiment analysis dataset, the accuracy and F1-Score were improved by 0.44% and 0.46% compared with the original BERT model using custom fusion. Compared with traditional models, such as LSTM and Transformer, they are improved to a certain extent.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
