Multimodal Sentiment Analysis (MSA) requires effective modeling of cross-modal interactions and contextual dependencies while remaining computationally efficient. Existing fusion approaches predominantly rely on Transformer-based cross-modal attention, which incurs quadratic complexity with respect to sequence length and limits scalability. Moreover, contextual information from preceding utterances is often incorporated through concatenation or independent fusion, without explicit temporal modeling that captures sentiment evolution across dialogue turns. To address these limitations, we propose CAGMamba, a context-aware gated cross-modal Mamba framework for dialogue-based sentiment analysis. Specifically, we organize the contextual and the current-utterance features into a temporally ordered binary sequence, which provides Mamba with explicit temporal structure for modeling sentiment evolution. To further enable controllable cross-modal integration, we propose a Gated Cross-Modal Mamba Network (GCMN) that integrates cross-modal and unimodal paths via learnable gating to balance information fusion and modality preservation, and is trained with a three-branch multi-task objective over text, audio, and fused predictions. Experiments on three benchmark datasets demonstrate that CAGMamba achieves state-of-the-art or competitive results across multiple evaluation metrics.

This paper studies constrained text generation, which is to generate sentences under certain pre-conditions. We focus on CommonGen, the task of generating text based on a set of concepts, as a representative task of constrained text generation. Traditional methods mainly rely on supervised training to maximize the likelihood of target sentences.However, global constraints such as common sense and coverage cannot be incorporated into the likelihood objective of the autoregressive decoding process. In this paper, we consider using reinforcement learning to address the limitation, measuring global constraints including fluency, common sense and concept coverage with a comprehensive score, which serves as the reward for reinforcement learning. Besides, we design a guided decoding method at the word, fragment and sentence levels. Experiments demonstrate that our method significantly increases the concept coverage and outperforms existing models in various automatic evaluations.

This paper presents the system used in our submission to the \textit{CoNLL 2019 shared task: Cross-Framework Meaning Representation Parsing}. Our system is a graph-based parser which combines an extended pointer-generator network that generates nodes and a second-order mean field variational inference module that predicts edges. Our system achieved \nth{1} and \nth{2} place for the DM and PSD frameworks respectively on the in-framework ranks and achieved \nth{3} place for the DM framework on the cross-framework ranks.
