In your summary, use numerical citation markers like [1], [2], etc., to refer to the corresponding papers.

Main Abstract:
Deep learning algorithms excel at extracting patterns from raw data, and with large datasets, they have been very successful in computer vision and natural language applications. However, in other domains, large datasets on which to learn representations from may not exist. In this work, we develop a novel multimodal CNN-MLP neural network architecture that utilizes both domain-specific feature engineering as well as learned representations from raw data. We illustrate the effectiveness of such network designs in the chemical sciences, for predicting biodegradability. DeepBioD, a multimodal CNN-MLP network is more accurate than either standalone network designs, and achieves an error classification rate of 0.125 that is 27 lower than the current state-of-the-art. Thus, our work indicates that combining traditional feature engineering with representation learning can be effective, particularly in situations where labeled data is limited.

[1]: Deep networks have been successfully applied to unsupervised feature learning for single modalities (e.g., text, images or audio). In this work, we propose a novel application of deep networks to learn features over multiple modalities. We present a series of tasks for multimodal learning and show how to train deep networks that learn features to address these tasks. In particular, we demonstrate cross modality feature learning, where better features for one modality (e.g., video) can be learned if multiple modalities (e.g., audio and video) are present at feature learning time. Furthermore, we show how to learn a shared representation between modalities and evaluate it on a unique task, where the classifier is trained with audio-only data but tested with video-only data and vice-versa. Our models are validated on the CUAVE and AVLetters datasets on audio-visual speech classification, demonstrating best published visual speech classification on AVLetters and effective shared representation learning.
Multimodal learning is an established technique in DL research. Our work takes inspiration from earlier research that demonstrated using different data modalities can improve model accuracy [1] . However, to the best of our knowledge existing multimodal learning models operate primarily on different streams of synchronous raw data, for example a video stream and its corresponding audio stream, or an image and its respective text caption. In contrast, there has been limited research in using multimodal learning to combine traditional feature engineering with representation learning, and there currently exist no examples of multimodal learning in chemistry.
