文摘The digital twin is the concept of transcending reality,which is the reverse feedback from the real physical space to the virtual digital space.People hold great prospects for this emerging technology.In order to realize the upgrading of the digital twin industrial chain,it is urgent to introduce more modalities,such as vision,haptics,hearing and smell,into the virtual digital space,which assists physical entities and virtual objects in creating a closer connection.Therefore,perceptual understanding and object recognition have become an urgent hot topic in the digital twin.Existing surface material classification schemes often achieve recognition through machine learning or deep learning in a single modality,ignoring the complementarity between multiple modalities.In order to overcome this dilemma,we propose a multimodal fusion network in our article that combines two modalities,visual and haptic,for surface material recognition.On the one hand,the network makes full use of the potential correlations between multiple modalities to deeply mine the modal semantics and complete the data mapping.On the other hand,the network is extensible and can be used as a universal architecture to include more modalities.Experiments show that the constructed multimodal fusion network can achieve 99.42%classification accuracy while reducing complexity.

文摘Natural events have had a significant impact on overall flight activity,and the aviation industry plays a vital role in helping society cope with the impact of these events.As one of the most impactful weather typhoon seasons appears and continues,airlines operating in threatened areas and passengers having travel plans during this time period will pay close attention to the development of tropical storms.This paper proposes a deep multimodal fusion and multitasking trajectory prediction model that can improve the reliability of typhoon trajectory prediction and reduce the quantity of flight scheduling cancellation.The deep multimodal fusion module is formed by deep fusion of the feature output by multiple submodal fusion modules,and the multitask generation module uses longitude and latitude as two related tasks for simultaneous prediction.With more dependable data accuracy,problems can be analysed rapidly and more efficiently,enabling better decision-making with a proactive versus reactive posture.When multiple modalities coexist,features can be extracted from them simultaneously to supplement each other’s information.An actual case study,the typhoon Lichma that swept China in 2019,has demonstrated that the algorithm can effectively reduce the number of unnecessary flight cancellations compared to existing flight scheduling and assist the new generation of flight scheduling systems under extreme weather.

文摘Artificial intelligence(AI)serves as a key technology in global industrial transformation and technological restructuring and as the core driver of the fourth industrial revolution.Currently,deep learning techniques,such as convolutional neural networks,enable intelligent information collection in fields such as tongue and pulse diagnosis owing to their robust feature-processing capabilities.Natural language processing models,including long short-term memory and transformers,have been applied to traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)for diagnosis,syndrome differentiation,and prescription generation.Traditional machine learning algorithms,such as neural networks,support vector machines,and random forests,are also widely used in TCM diagnosis and treatment because of their strong regression and classification performance on small structured datasets.Future research on AI in TCM diagnosis and treatment may emphasize building large-scale,high-quality TCM datasets with unified criteria based on syndrome elements;identifying algorithms suited to TCM theoretical data distributions;and leveraging AI multimodal fusion and ensemble learning techniques for diverse raw features,such as images,text,and manually processed structured data,to increase the clinical efficacy of TCM diagnosis and treatment.
文摘Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar(ISAR)images of complex targets have a low Signal-to-Noise Ratio(SNR)and contain fuzzy edges and large differences in scattering intensity,which limits the recognition performance of ISAR systems.Also,data scarcity poses a greater challenge to the accurate recognition of components.To address the issues of component recognition in complex ISAR targets,this paper adopts semantic segmentation and proposes a few-shot semantic segmentation framework fusing multimodal features.The scarcity of available data is mitigated by using a two-branch scattering feature encoding structure.Then,the high-resolution features are obtained by fusing the ISAR image texture features and scattering quantization information of complex-valued echoes,thereby achieving significantly higher structural adaptability.Meanwhile,the scattering trait enhancement module and the statistical quantification module are designed.The edge texture is enhanced based on the scatter quantization property,which alleviates the segmentation challenge of edge blurring under low SNR conditions.The coupling of query/support samples is enhanced through four-dimensional convolution.Additionally,to overcome fusion challenges caused by information differences,multimodal feature fusion is guided by equilibrium comprehension loss.In this way,the performance potential of the fusion framework is fully unleashed,and the decision risk is effectively reduced.Experiments demonstrate the great advantages of the proposed framework in multimodal feature fusion,and it still exhibits great component segmentation capability under low SNR/edge blurring conditions.

文摘China is the world's largest producer of pigs,but traditional manual prevention,treatment,and diagnosis methods cannot satisfy the demands of the current intensive production environment.Existing computer-aided diagnosis(CAD)systems for pigs are dominated by expert systems,which cannot be widely applied because the collection and maintenance of knowledge is difficult,and most of them ignore the effect of multimodal information.A swine disease diagnosis model was proposed in this study,the Text-Guided Fusion Network-Swine Diagnosis(TGFN-SD)model,which integrated text case reports and disease images.The model integrated the differences and complementary information in the multimodal representation of diseases through the text-guided transformer module such that text case reports could carry the semantic information of disease images for disease identification.Moreover,it alleviated the phenotypic overlap problem caused by similar diseases in combination with supervised learning and self-supervised learning.Experimental results revealed that TGFN-SD achieved satisfactory performance on a constructed swine disease image and text dataset(SDT6K)that covered six disease classification datasets with accuracy and F1-score of 94.48%and 94.4%respectively.The accuracies and F1-scores increased by 8.35%and 7.24%compared with those under the unimodal situation and by 2.02%and 1.63%compared with those of the optimal baseline model under the multimodal fusion.Additionally,interpretability analysis revealed that the model focus area was consistent with the habits and rules of the veterinary clinical diagnosis of pigs,indicating the effectiveness of the proposed model and providing new ideas and perspectives for the study of swine disease CAD.

文摘Hateful meme is a multimodal medium that combines images and texts.The potential hate content of hateful memes has caused serious problems for social media security.The current hateful memes classification task faces significant data scarcity challenges,and direct fine-tuning of large-scale pre-trained models often leads to severe overfitting issues.In addition,it is a challenge to understand the underlying relationship between text and images in the hateful memes.To address these issues,we propose a multimodal hateful memes classification model named LABF,which is based on low-rank adapter layers and bidirectional gated feature fusion.Firstly,low-rank adapter layers are adopted to learn the feature representation of the new dataset.This is achieved by introducing a small number of additional parameters while retaining prior knowledge of the CLIP model,which effectively alleviates the overfitting phenomenon.Secondly,a bidirectional gated feature fusion mechanism is designed to dynamically adjust the interaction weights of text and image features to achieve finer cross-modal fusion.Experimental results show that the method significantly outperforms existing methods on two public datasets,verifying its effectiveness and robustness.

文摘Nursing behaviour and the calling-to-nurse sound are crucial indicators for assessing sow maternal behaviour and nursing status.However,accurately identifying these behaviours for individual sows in complex indoor pig housing is challenging due to factors such as variable lighting,rail obstructions,and interference from other sows'calls.Multimodal fusion,which integrates audio and visual data,has proven to be an effective approach for improving accuracy and robustness in complex scenarios.In this study,we designed an audio-visual data acquisition system that includes a camera for synchronised audio and video capture,along with a custom-developed sound source localisation system that leverages a sound sensor to track sound direction.Specifically,we proposed a novel transformer-based audio-visual multimodal fusion(TMF)framework for recognising fine-grained sow nursing behaviour with or without the calling-to-nurse sound.Initially,a unimodal self-attention enhancement(USE)module was employed to augment video and audio features with global contextual information.Subsequently,we developed an audio-visual interaction enhancement(AVIE)module to compress relevant information and reduce noise using the information bottleneck principle.Moreover,we presented an adaptive dynamic decision fusion strategy to optimise the model's performance by focusing on the most relevant features in each modality.Finally,we comprehensively identified fine-grained nursing behaviours by integrating audio and fused information,while incorporating angle information from the real-time sound source localisation system to accurately determine whether the sound cues originate from the target sow.Our results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves an accuracy of 98.42%for general sow nursing behaviour and 94.37%for fine-grained nursing behaviour,including nursing with and without the calling-to-nurse sound,and non-nursing behaviours.This fine-grained nursing information can provide a more nuanced understanding of the sow's health and lactation willingness,thereby enhancing management practices in pig farming.

文摘The task of student action recognition in the classroom is to precisely capture and analyze the actions of students in classroom videos,providing a foundation for realizing intelligent and accurate teaching.However,the complex nature of the classroom environment has added challenges and difficulties in the process of student action recognition.In this research article,with regard to the circumstances where students are prone to be occluded and classroom computing resources are restricted in real classroom scenarios,a lightweight multi-modal fusion action recognition approach is put forward.This proposed method is capable of enhancing the accuracy of student action recognition while concurrently diminishing the number of parameters of the model and the Computation Amount,thereby achieving a more efficient and accurate recognition performance.In the feature extraction stage,this method fuses the keypoint heatmap with the RGB(Red-Green-Blue color model)image.In order to fully utilize the unique information of different modalities for feature complementarity,a Feature Fusion Module(FFE)is introduced.The FFE encodes and fuses the unique features of the two modalities during the feature extraction process.This fusion strategy not only achieves fusion and complementarity between modalities,but also improves the overall model performance.Furthermore,to reduce the computational load and parameter scale of the model,we use keypoint information to crop RGB images.At the same time,the first three networks of the lightweight feature extraction network X3D are used to extract dual-branch features.These methods significantly reduce the computational load and parameter scale.The number of parameters of the model is 1.40 million,and the computation amount is 5.04 billion floating-point operations per second(GFLOPs),achieving an efficient lightweight design.In the Student Classroom Action Dataset(SCAD),the accuracy of the model is 88.36%.In NTU 60(Nanyang Technological University Red-Green-Blue-Depth RGB+Ddataset with 60 categories),the accuracies on X-Sub(The people in the training set are different from those in the test set)and X-View(The perspectives of the training set and the test set are different)are 95.76%and 98.82%,respectively.On the NTU 120 dataset(Nanyang Technological University Red-Green-Blue-Depth dataset with 120 categories),RGB+Dthe accuracies on X-Sub and X-Set(the perspectives of the training set and the test set are different)are 91.97%and 93.45%,respectively.The model has achieved a balance in terms of accuracy,computation amount,and the number of parameters.

文摘Video classification is an important task in video understanding and plays a pivotal role in intelligent monitoring of information content.Most existing methods do not consider the multimodal nature of the video,and the modality fusion approach tends to be too simple,often neglecting modality alignment before fusion.This research introduces a novel dual stream multimodal alignment and fusion network named DMAFNet for classifying short videos.The network uses two unimodal encoder modules to extract features within modalities and exploits a multimodal encoder module to learn interaction between modalities.To solve the modality alignment problem,contrastive learning is introduced between two unimodal encoder modules.Additionally,masked language modeling(MLM)and video text matching(VTM)auxiliary tasks are introduced to improve the interaction between video frames and text modalities through backpropagation of loss functions.Diverse experiments prove the efficiency of DMAFNet in multimodal video classification tasks.Compared with other two mainstream baselines,DMAFNet achieves the best results on the 2022 WeChat Big Data Challenge dataset.

文摘Accurate estimation of lithium battery state-of-health(SOH)is essential for ensuring safe operation and efficient utilization.To address the challenges of complex degradation factors and unreliable feature extraction,we develop a novel SOH prediction model integrating physical information constraints and multimodal feature fusion.Our approach employs a multi-channel encoder to process heterogeneous data modalities,including health indicators,raw charge/discharge sequences,and incremental capacity data,and uses multi-channel encoders to achieve structured input.A physics-informed loss function,derived from an empirical capacity decay equation,is incorporated to enforce interpretability,while a cross-layer attention mechanism dynamically weights features to handle missing modalities and random noise.Experimental validation on multiple battery types demonstrates that our model reduces mean absolute error(MAE)by at least 51.09%compared to unimodal baselines,maintains robustness under adverse conditions such as partial data loss,and achieves an average MAE of 0.0201 in real-world battery pack applications.This model significantly enhances the accuracy and universality of prediction,enabling accurate prediction of battery SOH under actual engineering conditions.
文摘Visual question answering(VQA)is a multimodal task,involving a deep understanding of the image scene and the question’s meaning and capturing the relevant correlations between both modalities to infer the appropriate answer.In this paper,we propose a VQA system intended to answer yes/no questions about real-world images,in Arabic.To support a robust VQA system,we work in two directions:(1)Using deep neural networks to semantically represent the given image and question in a fine-grainedmanner,namely ResNet-152 and Gated Recurrent Units(GRU).(2)Studying the role of the utilizedmultimodal bilinear pooling fusion technique in the trade-o.between the model complexity and the overall model performance.Some fusion techniques could significantly increase the model complexity,which seriously limits their applicability for VQA models.So far,there is no evidence of how efficient these multimodal bilinear pooling fusion techniques are for VQA systems dedicated to yes/no questions.Hence,a comparative analysis is conducted between eight bilinear pooling fusion techniques,in terms of their ability to reduce themodel complexity and improve themodel performance in this case of VQA systems.Experiments indicate that these multimodal bilinear pooling fusion techniques have improved the VQA model’s performance,until reaching the best performance of 89.25%.Further,experiments have proven that the number of answers in the developed VQA system is a critical factor that a.ects the effectiveness of these multimodal bilinear pooling techniques in achieving their main objective of reducing the model complexity.The Multimodal Local Perception Bilinear Pooling(MLPB)technique has shown the best balance between the model complexity and its performance,for VQA systems designed to answer yes/no questions.

文摘Medical image fusion technology is crucial for improving the detection accuracy and treatment efficiency of diseases,but existing fusion methods have problems such as blurred texture details,low contrast,and inability to fully extract fused image information.Therefore,a multimodal medical image fusion method based on mask optimization and parallel attention mechanism was proposed to address the aforementioned issues.Firstly,it converted the entire image into a binary mask,and constructed a contour feature map to maximize the contour feature information of the image and a triple path network for image texture detail feature extraction and optimization.Secondly,a contrast enhancement module and a detail preservation module were proposed to enhance the overall brightness and texture details of the image.Afterwards,a parallel attention mechanism was constructed using channel features and spatial feature changes to fuse images and enhance the salient information of the fused images.Finally,a decoupling network composed of residual networks was set up to optimize the information between the fused image and the source image so as to reduce information loss in the fused image.Compared with nine high-level methods proposed in recent years,the seven objective evaluation indicators of our method have improved by 6%−31%,indicating that this method can obtain fusion results with clearer texture details,higher contrast,and smaller pixel differences between the fused image and the source image.It is superior to other comparison algorithms in both subjective and objective indicators.
文摘Traffic prediction is crucial for urban planning and transportation management,and deep learning techniques have emerged as effective tools for this task.While previous works have made advancements,they often overlook comprehensive analyses of spatio-temporal distributions and the integration of multimodal representations.Our research addresses these limitations by proposing a large-scale spatio-temporal multimodal fusion framework that enables accurate predictions based on location queries and seamlessly integrates various data sources.Specifically,we utilize Convolutional Neural Networks(CNNs)for spatial information processing and a combination of Recurrent Neural Networks(RNNs)for final spatio-temporal traffic prediction.This framework not only effectively reveals its ability to integrate various modal data in the spatio-temporal hyperspace,but has also been successfully implemented in a real-world large-scale map,showcasing its practical importance in tackling urban traffic challenges.The findings presented in this work contribute to the advancement of traffic prediction methods,offering valuable insights for further research and application in addressing real-world transportation challenges.
文摘Neuroimaging data typically include multiple modalities,such as structural or functional magnetic resonance imaging,dif-fusion tensor imaging,and positron emission tomography,which provide multiple views for observing and analyzing the brain.To lever-age the complementary representations of different modalities,multimodal fusion is consequently needed to dig out both inter-modality and intra-modality information.With the exploited rich information,it is becoming popular to combine multiple modality data to ex-plore the structural and functional characteristics of the brain in both health and disease status.In this paper,we first review a wide spectrum of advanced machine learning methodologies for fusing multimodal brain imaging data,broadly categorized into unsupervised and supervised learning strategies.Followed by this,some representative applications are discussed,including how they help to under-stand the brain arealization,how they improve the prediction of behavioral phenotypes and brain aging,and how they accelerate the biomarker exploration of brain diseases.Finally,we discuss some exciting emerging trends and important future directions.Collectively,we intend to offer a comprehensive overview of brain imaging fusion methods and their successful applications,along with the chal-lenges imposed by multi-scale and big data,which arises an urgent demand on developing new models and platforms.

文摘3D vehicle detection based on LiDAR-camera fusion is becoming an emerging research topic in autonomous driving.The algorithm based on the Camera-LiDAR object candidate fusion method(CLOCs)is currently considered to be a more effective decision-level fusion algorithm,but it does not fully utilize the extracted features of 3D and 2D.Therefore,we proposed a 3D vehicle detection algorithm based onmultimodal decision-level fusion.First,project the anchor point of the 3D detection bounding box into the 2D image,calculate the distance between 2D and 3D anchor points,and use this distance as a new fusion feature to enhance the feature redundancy of the network.Subsequently,add an attention module:squeeze-and-excitation networks,weight each feature channel to enhance the important features of the network,and suppress useless features.The experimental results show that the mean average precision of the algorithm in the KITTI dataset is 82.96%,which outperforms previous state-ofthe-art multimodal fusion-based methods,and the average accuracy in the Easy,Moderate and Hard evaluation indicators reaches 88.96%,82.60%,and 77.31%,respectively,which are higher compared to the original CLOCs model by 1.02%,2.29%,and 0.41%,respectively.Compared with the original CLOCs algorithm,our algorithm has higher accuracy and better performance in 3D vehicle detection.

文摘In complex traffic environment scenarios,it is very important for autonomous vehicles to accurately perceive the dynamic information of other vehicles around the vehicle in advance.The accuracy of 3D object detection will be affected by problems such as illumination changes,object occlusion,and object detection distance.To this purpose,we face these challenges by proposing a multimodal feature fusion network for 3D object detection(MFF-Net).In this research,this paper first uses the spatial transformation projection algorithm to map the image features into the feature space,so that the image features are in the same spatial dimension when fused with the point cloud features.Then,feature channel weighting is performed using an adaptive expression augmentation fusion network to enhance important network features,suppress useless features,and increase the directionality of the network to features.Finally,this paper increases the probability of false detection and missed detection in the non-maximum suppression algo-rithm by increasing the one-dimensional threshold.So far,this paper has constructed a complete 3D target detection network based on multimodal feature fusion.The experimental results show that the proposed achieves an average accuracy of 82.60%on the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and Toyota Technological Institute(KITTI)dataset,outperforming previous state-of-the-art multimodal fusion networks.In Easy,Moderate,and hard evaluation indicators,the accuracy rate of this paper reaches 90.96%,81.46%,and 75.39%.This shows that the MFF-Net network has good performance in 3D object detection.
