Abstract With the growing demand for more comprehensive and nuanced sentiment understanding, Multimodal Sentiment Analysis (MSA) has gained significant traction in recent years and continues to attract widespread attention in the academic community. Despite notable advances, existing approaches still face critical challenges in both information modeling and modality fusion. On one hand, many current methods rely heavily on encoders to extract global features from each modality, which limits their ability to capture latent fine-grained emotional cues within modalities. On the other hand, prevailing fusion strategies often lack mechanisms to model semantic discrepancies across modalities and to… More >

Abstract Extracting valuable information from biomedical texts is one of the current research hotspots of concern to a wide range of scholars. The biomedical corpus contains numerous complex long sentences and overlapping relational triples, making most generalized domain joint modeling methods difficult to apply effectively in this field. For a complex semantic environment in biomedical texts, in this paper, we propose a novel perspective to perform joint entity and relation extraction; existing studies divide the relation triples into several steps or modules. However, the three elements in the relation triples are interdependent and inseparable, so we… More >

Abstract Accurate forecasting of time series is crucial across various domains. Many prediction tasks rely on effectively segmenting, matching, and time series data alignment. For instance, regardless of time series with the same granularity, segmenting them into different granularity events can effectively mitigate the impact of varying time scales on prediction accuracy. However, these events of varying granularity frequently intersect with each other, which may possess unequal durations. Even minor differences can result in significant errors when matching time series with future trends. Besides, directly using matched events but unaligned events as state vectors in machine… More >

Abstract Visible-infrared Cross-modality Person Re-identification (VI-ReID) is a critical technology in smart public facilities such as cities, campuses and libraries. It aims to match pedestrians in visible light and infrared images for video surveillance, which poses a challenge in exploring cross-modal shared information accurately and efficiently. Therefore, multi-granularity feature learning methods have been applied in VI-ReID to extract potential multi-granularity semantic information related to pedestrian body structure attributes. However, existing research mainly uses traditional dual-stream fusion networks and overlooks the core of cross-modal learning networks, the fusion module. This paper introduces a novel network called the… More >
