Multimodal Sentiment Analysis: A Survey of Methods, Trends, and Challenges
Open accessAbstract
Sentiment analysis has come long way since it was introduced as a natural language processing task nearly 20 years ago. Sentiment analysis aims to extract the underlying attitudes and opinions toward an entity. It has become a powerful tool used by governments, businesses, medicine, marketing, and others. The traditional sentiment analysis model focuses mainly on text content. However, technological advances have allowed people to express their opinions and feelings through audio, image and video channels. As a result, sentiment analysis is shifting from unimodality to multimodality. Multimodal sentiment analysis brings new opportunities with the rapid increase of sentiment analysis as complementary data streams enable improved and deeper sentiment detection which goes beyond text-based analysis. Audio and video channels are included in multimodal sentiment analysis in terms of broadness. People have been working on different approaches to improve sentiment analysis system performance by employing complex deep neural architectures. Recently, sentiment analysis has achieved significant success using the transformer-based model. This paper presents a comprehensive study of different sentiment analysis approaches, applications, challenges, and resources then concludes that it holds tremendous potential. The primary motivation of this survey is to highlight changing trends in the unimodality to multimodality for solving sentiment analysis tasks.

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.
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.
