Description
Nowadays, research and industry rely more on collecting and analyzing multimodal data that integrates a host of formats like text, images, audio, and video. Such integration increases the decision-making capabilities and builds insightful information, but equally raises serious ethical issues to be followed up with caution. In multifarious and interrelated datasets, questions about ownership of the data, informed consent, and privacy become much more complex. This has further worsened by the advent of social media and big data analytics, exposing participants to possible harms. This paper discusses the ethical issues arising in such scenarios and calls for strong mechanisms that ensure responsible and just conduct in multimodal research. 2026 Elsevier Inc.
