The paper proposes a novel approach to multimodal learning robust to missing modalities. Existing methods learn a common subspace representation for different modality combinations, but these approaches are sub-optimal due to implicit constraints on intra-class representations. The proposed Decoupled Multimodal Representation Network (DMRNet) models input from different modality combinations as probabilistic distributions, allowing the model to capture modality-specific information and relax direction constraints. This approach is demonstrated to significantly outperform state-of-the-art methods on multimodal classification and segmentation tasks.

The paper introduces a new way of learning with multiple types of data, like images and sound. Current approaches try to combine these different types of data into a single representation, but this can limit what the model can learn. The proposed method, DMRNet, treats each type of data as a separate probability distribution, allowing it to capture unique information from each one. This approach is shown to work well on various tasks involving multiple types of data.
