Abstract

To address the underutilization of differences in modal representation capabilities and speaker emotional cues, this paper proposed a knowledge-enhanced cross-modal fusion network model. This model incorporated a cross-modal module enhanced by external knowledge, which systematically integrated weaker modal features with multi-level text and external know-ledge, embedding them into the multi-head attention layer. This approach fully extracted valuable information from the weaker modalities, ensuring feature complementarity and consistency across modalities. Additionally, the model introduced an emotion clue enhancement module based on a directed graph, which leveraged external knowledge linked to the speaker's emotional cues to strengthen the fused features. This module also constructed a directed graph to capture contextual information, allowing for a deeper exploration and utilization of the speaker's emotional states. Experimental results on two benchmark datasets de-monstrate that the model effectively harnesses both modal representation differences and speaker emotional cues, achieving significantly improved emotion recognition performance compared to existing methods, thereby validating the model's feasibility and effectiveness.
