Knowledge Graphs for Multi-modal Learning: Survey and Perspective

Integrated with multi-modal learning, knowledge graphs (KGs) as structured knowledge repositories, can enhance AI for processing and understanding complex, real-world data. This paper provides a comprehensive survey of cutting-edge research on KG-aware multi-modal learning. For these core areas, we provide task definitions, evaluation benchmarks, and comprehensive insights into key breakthroughs, offering detailed explanations critical for conducting related research. Furthermore, we also discuss current challenges, highlighting emerging trends and future research directions. The repository for this paper can be found at https://github.com/zjukg/KG-MM-Survey.
