Abstract

The research progress in multimodal learning has grown rapidly over the last decade in several areas, especially in computer vision. The growing potential of multimodal data streams and deep learning algorithms has contributed to the increasing universality of deep multimodal learning. This involves the development of models capable of processing and analyzing the multimodal information uniformly. Unstructured real-world data can inherently take many forms, also known as modalities, often including visual and textual content. Extracting relevant patterns from this kind of data is still a motivating goal for researchers in deep learning. In this paper, we seek to improve the understanding of key concepts and algorithms of deep multimodal learning for the computer vision community by exploring how to generate deep models that consider the integration and combination of heterogeneous visual cues across sensory modalities. In particular, we summarize six perspectives from the current literature on deep multimodal learning, namely: multimodal data representation, multimodal fusion (i.e., both traditional and deep learning-based schemes), multitask learning, multimodal alignment, multimodal transfer learning, and zero-shot learning. We also survey current multimodal applications and present a collection of benchmark datasets for solving problems in various vision domains. Finally, we highlight the limitations and challenges of deep multimodal learning and provide insights and directions for future research.

TL;DR

This survey reviews deep multimodal learning for computer vision, organizing advances into six perspectives: multimodal data representation, multimodal fusion (traditional and deep learning-based), multitask learning, multimodal alignment, multimodal transfer learning, and zero-shot learning. It also surveys applications and benchmark datasets and highlights limitations and challenges including dimensionality/data conflict, data availability, and real-time processing/scalability.

Key findings

  • The survey organizes deep multimodal learning into six topics: multimodal data representation, multimodal fusion (traditional and deep learning-based schemes), multitask learning, multimodal alignment, multimodal transfer learning, and zero-shot learning.
  • It reviews conventional fusion methods (early, late, hybrid, kernel-based, graphical models, canonical correlation analysis) and deep fusion methods based on DBNs, DAEs, CNNs, RNNs, GANs, and attention mechanisms, noting model-specific tradeoffs such as DBNs largely ignoring spatiotemporal cues, DAEs missing spatiotemporal details, CNNs requiring large-scale multimodal datasets, RNNs having slow convergence, and GANs/attention being unstable to train.
  • It surveys multimodal applications including object detection, visual tracking, semantic segmentation, human/face recognition, image retrieval, gesture recognition, image captioning, vision-and-language navigation, embodied question answering, video question answering, style transfer, medical data analysis, and autonomous systems. Table 2 reports prior best results such as face recognition on LFW (ACC = 98.43%) and CASIA-WebFace (ACC = 99.02%), gesture recognition on SKIG (ACC = 97.8%), video question answering on TDIUC (ACC = 88.20%), and autonomous systems on nuScenes (mAP = 28.9%; NDS = 44.9%).
  • It presents benchmark datasets including RGB-D Object (300 object instances, 51 categories, 250,000 RGB-D images), BigBIRD (125 objects, 600 RGB-D point clouds, 600 12-megapixel images), Kinetics-400 (more than 300,000 video sequences across 400 classes), SceneNet RGB-D (5M RGB-D images), and nuScenes (1000 scenes, each about 20 s long, 23 classes, eight attributes).

Methods

  • Survey/overview paper; no new experiments are reported. It reviews and synthesizes literature, compares its scope with previous surveys in Table 1, and organizes the field into six perspectives.
  • It uses tables to summarize reviewed deep multimodal learning surveys, multimodal applications with technical details and best results (Table 2), and frequently used multimodal datasets (Tables 3 and 4), focusing on visual modalities such as RGB-D and RGB-optical flow.
  • The main analysis is qualitative synthesis and taxonomy; no primary data collection, statistical meta-analysis, or systematic review protocol is stated.

Limitations

  • The paper states main challenges of deep multimodal learning: dimensionality and data conflict, data availability, and real-time processing and scalability. It also states that despite impressive results, “no absolute conclusions can be drawn.”
  • It lists model-specific limitations: DBNs largely ignore spatiotemporal cues and have computationally intensive inference; DAEs miss some spatiotemporal details and have many hidden parameters with time-consuming inference; CNNs require large-scale multimodal datasets and time-consuming inference; RNNs have slow convergence; GANs are unstable and tricky to train on discrete distributions; attention mechanisms have unstable training and a huge number of parameters.
  • Evident from the text: as a survey, it does not provide new empirical validation or a quantitative meta-analysis beyond reporting prior results, and it does not state a systematic review protocol or inclusion criteria.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Claims read by deepseek-v4.1-flash under definition version 3 (extract-v3) on 2026-10-08.

Classified by jev-1.13-20260917 (gold-guideline-v0.2) on 2026-10-08.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
