Image Sensor-Supported Multimodal Attention Modeling for Educational Intelligence

To address the limitations of low fusion efficiency and insufficient personalization in multimodal perception for educational intelligence, a novel deep learning framework is proposed that integrates image sensor data with textual and contextual information through a cross-modal attention mechanism. The architecture employs a cross-modal alignment module to achieve fine-grained semantic correspondence between visual features captured by image sensors and associated textual elements, followed by a personalized feedback generator that incorporates learner background and task context embeddings to produce adaptive educational guidance. A cognitive weakness highlighter is introduced to enhance the discriminability of task-relevant features, enabling explicit localization and interpretation of conceptual gaps. Experiments show the proposed method outperforms conventional fusion and unimodal baselines with 92.37% accuracy, 91.28% recall, and 90.84% precision. Cross-task and noise-robustness tests confirm its stability, while ablation studies highlight the fusion module's +4.2% accuracy gain and the attention mechanism's +3.8% recall and +3.5% precision improvements. These results establish the proposed method as a transferable, high-performance solution for next-generation adaptive learning systems, offering precise, explainable, and context-aware feedback grounded in advanced multimodal perception modeling.

Abstract

To address the limitations of low fusion efficiency and insufficient personalization in multimodal perception for educational intelligence, a novel deep learning framework is proposed that integrates image sensor data with textual and contextual information through a cross-modal attention mechanism. The architecture employs a cross-modal alignment module to achieve fine-grained semantic correspondence between visual features captured by image sensors and associated textual elements, followed by a personalized feedback generator that incorporates learner background and task context embeddings to produce adaptive educational guidance. A cognitive weakness highlighter is introduced to enhance the discriminability of task-relevant features, enabling explicit localization and interpretation of conceptual gaps. Experiments show the proposed method outperforms conventional fusion and unimodal baselines with 92.37% accuracy, 91.28% recall, and 90.84% precision. Cross-task and noise-robustness tests confirm its stability, while ablation studies highlight the fusion module's +4.2% accuracy gain and the attention mechanism's +3.8% recall and +3.5% precision improvements. These results establish the proposed method as a transferable, high-performance solution for next-generation adaptive learning systems, offering precise, explainable, and context-aware feedback grounded in advanced multimodal perception modeling.
