1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Deep neural networks have been proven effective in classifying human interactions into emotions, especially by encoding multiple input modalities. In this work, we assess the robustness of a transformer-based multimodal audio-text classifier for emotion recognition, by perturbing the input at inference time using attacks which we design specifically to corrupt information deemed important for emotion recognition. To measure the impact of the attacks on the classifier, we compare between the accuracy of the classifier on the perturbed input and on the original, unperturbed input. Our results show that the multimodal classifier is more resilient to perturbation attacks than the equivalent unimodal classifiers, suggesting that the two modalities are encoded in a way that allows the classifier to benefit from one modality even when the other one is slightly damaged.
