Abstract Arabic Sign Language (ArSL) recognition plays a vital role in enhancing the communication for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (DHH) community. Researchers have proposed multiple methods for automated recognition of ArSL; however, these methods face multiple challenges that include high gesture variability, occlusions, limited signer diversity, and the scarcity of large annotated datasets. Existing methods, often relying solely on either skeletal data or video-based features, struggle with generalization and robustness, especially in dynamic and real-world conditions. This paper proposes a novel multimodal ensemble classification framework that integrates geometric features derived from 3D skeletal joint… More >

Abstract 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… More >

Abstract As social networks become increasingly complex, contemporary fake news often includes textual descriptions of events accompanied by corresponding images or videos. Fake news in multiple modalities is more likely to create a misleading perception among users. While early research primarily focused on text-based features for fake news detection mechanisms, there has been relatively limited exploration of learning shared representations in multimodal (text and visual) contexts. To address these limitations, this paper introduces a multimodal model for detecting fake news, which relies on similarity reasoning and adversarial networks. The model employs Bidirectional Encoder Representation from Transformers… More >

Abstract 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… More >
