Abstract In recent years, diffusion models have achieved remarkable progress in image generation. However, extending them to text-to-video (T2V) generation remains challenging, particularly in maintaining semantic consistency and visual quality across frames. Existing approaches often overlook the synergy between high-level semantics and low-level texture information, resulting in blurry or temporally inconsistent outputs. To address these issues, we propose Dual Consistency Training (DCT), a novel framework designed to jointly optimize semantic and texture consistency in video generation. Specifically, we introduce a multi-scale spatial adapter to enhance spatial feature extraction, and leverage the complementary strengths of CLIP and More >

Abstract Artificial intelligence is reshaping radiology by enabling automated report generation, yet evaluating the clinical accuracy and relevance of these reports is a challenging task, as traditional natural language generation metrics like BLEU and ROUGE prioritize lexical overlap over clinical relevance. To address this gap, we propose a novel semantic assessment framework for evaluating the accuracy of artificial intelligence-generated radiology reports against ground truth references. We trained 5229 image–report pairs from the Indiana University chest X-ray dataset on the R2GenRL model and generated a benchmark dataset on test data from the Indiana University chest X-ray and… More >

Abstract In recent years, with the rapid development of software systems, the continuous expansion of software scale and the increasing complexity of systems have led to the emergence of a growing number of software metrics. Defect prediction methods based on software metric elements highly rely on software metric data. However, redundant software metric data is not conducive to efficient defect prediction, posing severe challenges to current software defect prediction tasks. To address these issues, this paper focuses on the rational clustering of software metric data. Firstly, multiple software projects are evaluated to determine the preset number… More >

Abstract Semantic segmentation has made significant breakthroughs in various application fields, but achieving both accurate and efficient segmentation with limited computational resources remains a major challenge. To this end, we propose CGMISeg, an efficient semantic segmentation architecture based on a context-guided multi-scale interaction strategy, aiming to significantly reduce computational overhead while maintaining segmentation accuracy. CGMISeg consists of three core components: context-aware attention modulation, feature reconstruction, and cross-information fusion. Context-aware attention modulation is carefully designed to capture key contextual information through channel and spatial attention mechanisms. The feature reconstruction module reconstructs contextual information from different scales, modeling… More >

Abstract Linguistic steganography (LS) aims to embed secret information into normal natural text for covert communication. It includes modification-based (MLS) and generation-based (GLS) methods. MLS often relies on limited manual rules, resulting in low embedding capacity, while GLS achieves higher embedding capacity through automatic text generation but typically ignores extraction efficiency. To address this, we propose a sentence attribute encoding-based MLS method that enhances extraction efficiency while maintaining strong performance. The proposed method designs a lightweight semantic attribute analyzer to encode sentence attributes for embedding secret information. When the attribute values of the cover sentence differ… More >

Abstract Semantic secure communication is an emerging field that combines the principles of source-channel coding with the need for secure data transmission. It is of great significance in modern communications to protect the confidentiality and privacy of sensitive information and prevent information leaks and malicious attacks. This paper presents a novel approach to semantic secure communication through the utilization of joint source-channel coding, which is based on the design of an automated joint source-channel coding algorithm and an encryption and decryption algorithm based on semantic security. The traditional and state-of-the-art joint source-channel coding algorithms are selected More >

Abstract Semantic segmentation provides important technical support for Land cover/land use (LCLU) research. By calculating the cosine similarity between feature vectors, transformer-based models can effectively capture the global information of high-resolution remote sensing images. However, the diversity of detailed and edge features within the same class of ground objects in high-resolution remote sensing images leads to a dispersed embedding distribution. The dispersed feature distribution enlarges feature vector angles and reduces cosine similarity, weakening the attention mechanism’s ability to identify the same class of ground objects. To address this challenge, remote sensing image information granulation transformer for… More >

Abstract Although existing style transfer techniques have made significant progress in the field of image generation, there are still some challenges in the field of exhibition hall design. The existing style transfer methods mainly focus on the transformation of single dimensional features, but ignore the deep integration of content and style features in exhibition hall design. In addition, existing methods are deficient in detail retention, especially in accurately capturing and reproducing local textures and details while preserving the content image structure. In addition, point-based attention mechanisms tend to ignore the complexity and diversity of image features… More >

Abstract With the advancement of deep learning in the automotive domain, more and more researchers are focusing on autonomous driving. Among these tasks, free space detection is particularly crucial. Currently, many model-based approaches have achieved autonomous driving on well-structured urban roads, but these efforts primarily focus on urban road environments. In contrast, there are fewer deep learning methods specifically designed for off-road traversable area detection, and their effectiveness is not yet satisfactory. This is because detecting traversable areas in complex outdoor environments poses significant challenges, and current methods often rely on single-image inputs, which do not… More >
