Abstract Social media has become increasingly significant in modern society, but it has also turned into a breeding ground for the propagation of misleading information, potentially causing a detrimental impact on public opinion and daily life. Compared to pure text content, multmodal content significantly increases the visibility and share ability of posts. This has made the search for efficient modality representations and cross-modal information interaction methods a key focus in the field of multimodal fake news detection. To effectively address the critical challenge of accurately detecting fake news on social media, this paper proposes a fake… More >

Abstract Multi-modal fusion technology gradually become a fundamental task in many fields, such as autonomous driving, smart healthcare, sentiment analysis, and human-computer interaction. It is rapidly becoming the dominant research due to its powerful perception and judgment capabilities. Under complex scenes, multi-modal fusion technology utilizes the complementary characteristics of multiple data streams to fuse different data types and achieve more accurate predictions. However, achieving outstanding performance is challenging because of equipment performance limitations, missing information, and data noise. This paper comprehensively reviews existing methods based on multi-modal fusion techniques and completes a detailed and in-depth analysis.… More >

Abstract This paper contributes a sophisticated statistical method for the assessment of performance in routing protocols salient Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) routing protocols: Destination Sequenced Distance Vector (DSDV), Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV), Dynamic Source Routing (DSR), and Zone Routing Protocol (ZRP). In this paper, the evaluation will be carried out using complete sets of statistical tests such as Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney, and Friedman. It articulates a systematic evaluation of how the performance of the previous protocols varies with the number of nodes and the mobility patterns. The study is premised upon the Quality of More >

Abstract With the rise of blockchain technology, the security issues of smart contracts have become increasingly critical. Despite the availability of numerous smart contract vulnerability detection tools, many face challenges such as slow updates, usability issues, and limited installation methods. These challenges hinder the adoption and practicality of these tools. This paper examines smart contract vulnerability detection tools from 2016 to 2023, sourced from the Web of Science (WOS) and Google Scholar. By systematically collecting, screening, and synthesizing relevant research, 38 open-source tools that provide installation methods were selected for further investigation. From a developer’s perspective,… More >

Abstract As a core part of battlefield situational awareness, air target intention recognition plays an important role in modern air operations. Aiming at the problems of insufficient feature extraction and misclassification in intention recognition, this paper designs an air target intention recognition method (KGTLIR) based on Knowledge Graph and Deep Learning. Firstly, the intention recognition model based on Deep Learning is constructed to mine the temporal relationship of intention features using dilated causal convolution and the spatial relationship of intention features using a graph attention mechanism. Meanwhile, the accuracy, recall, and F1-score after iteration are introduced More >

Abstract Autonomous driving technology has entered a period of rapid development, and traffic sign detection is one of the important tasks. Existing target detection networks are difficult to adapt to scenarios where target sizes are seriously imbalanced, and traffic sign targets are small and have unclear features, which makes detection more difficult. Therefore, we propose a Hybrid Feature Fusion Traffic Sign detection algorithm based on YOLOv7 (HFFT-YOLO). First, a self-attention mechanism is incorporated at the end of the backbone network to calculate feature interactions within scales; Secondly, the cross-scale fusion part of the neck introduces a… More >

Abstract In the context of the accelerated pace of daily life and the development of e-commerce, online shopping is a mainstream way for consumers to access products and services. To understand their emotional expressions in facing different shopping experience scenarios, this paper presents a sentiment analysis method that combines the e-commerce review keyword-generated image with a hybrid machine learning-based model, in which the Word2Vec-TextRank is used to extract keywords that act as the inputs for generating the related images by generative Artificial Intelligence (AI). Subsequently, a hybrid Convolutional Neural Network and Support Vector Machine (CNN-SVM) model… More >

Abstract Recovering high-quality inscription images from unknown and complex inscription noisy images is a challenging research issue. Different from natural images, character images pay more attention to stroke information. However, existing models mainly consider pixel-level information while ignoring structural information of the character, such as its edge and glyph, resulting in reconstructed images with mottled local structure and character damage. To solve these problems, we propose a novel generative adversarial network (GAN) framework based on an edge-guided generator and a discriminator constructed by a dual-domain U-Net framework, i.e., EDU-GAN. Unlike existing frameworks, the generator introduces the… More >
