LapisGS: Layered Progressive 3D Gaussian Splatting for Adaptive Streaming

The rise of Extended Reality (XR) requires efficient streaming of 3D online worlds, challenging current 3DGS representations to adapt to bandwidth-constrained environments. This paper proposes LapisGS, a layered 3DGS that supports adaptive streaming and progressive rendering. Our method constructs a layered structure for cumulative representation, incorporates dynamic opacity optimization to maintain visual fidelity, and utilizes occupancy maps to efficiently manage Gaussian splats. This proposed model offers a progressive representation supporting a continuous rendering quality adapted for bandwidth-aware streaming. Extensive experiments validate the effectiveness of our approach in balancing visual fidelity with the compactness of the model, with up to 50.71% improvement in SSIM, 286.53% improvement in LPIPS, and 318.41% reduction in model size, and shows its potential for bandwidth-adapted 3D streaming and rendering applications.

ASMFS: Adaptive-Similarity-based Multi-modality Feature Selection for Classification of Alzheimer's Disease

With the increasing amounts of high-dimensional heterogeneous data to be processed, multi-modality feature selection has become an important research direction in medical image analysis. Traditional methods usually depict the data structure using fixed and predefined similarity matrix for each modality separately, without considering the potential relationship structure across different modalities. In this paper, we propose a novel multi-modality feature selection method, which performs feature selection and local similarity learning simultaniously. Specially, a similarity matrix is learned by jointly considering different imaging modalities. And at the same time, feature selection is conducted by imposing sparse l_{2, 1} norm constraint. The effectiveness of our proposed joint learning method can be well demonstrated by the experimental results on Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) dataset, which outperforms existing the state-of-the-art multi-modality approaches.

Recognizing Chinese Judicial Named Entity using BiLSTM-CRF

Named entity recognition (NER) plays an essential role in natural language processing systems. Judicial NER is a fundamental component of judicial information retrieval, entity relation extraction, and knowledge map building. However, Chinese judicial NER remains to be more challenging due to the characteristics of Chinese and high accuracy requirements in the judicial filed. Thus, in this paper, we propose a deep learning-based method named BiLSTM-CRF which consists of bi-directional long short-term memory (BiLSTM) and conditional random fields (CRF). For further accuracy promotion, we propose to use Adaptive moment estimation (Adam) for optimization of the model. To validate our method, we perform experiments on judgment documents including commutation, parole and temporary service outside prison, which is acquired from China Judgments Online. Experimental results achieve the accuracy of 0.876, recall of 0.856 and F1 score of 0.855, which suggests the superiority of the proposed BiLSTM-CRF with Adam optimizer.
