• Authors: Weiqi Fu, Lianming Xu, Xin Wu, Haoyang Wei, Li Wang,
• Abstract summary: This paper introduces a multimodal generative semantic communication framework named mm-GESCO. The framework ingests streams of visible and infrared modal image data, generates fused semantic segmentation maps, and transmits them. At the receiving end, the framework can reconstruct the original multimodal images based on the semantic maps.

• Abstract: In emergencies, the ability to quickly and accurately gather environmental data and command information, and to make timely decisions, is particularly critical. Traditional semantic communication frameworks, primarily based on a single modality, are susceptible to complex environments and lighting conditions, thereby limiting decision accuracy. To this end, this paper introduces a multimodal generative semantic communication framework named mm-GESCO. The framework ingests streams of visible and infrared modal image data, generates fused semantic segmentation maps, and transmits them using a combination of one-hot encoding and zlib compression techniques to enhance data transmission efficiency. At the receiving end, the framework can reconstruct the original multimodal images based on the semantic maps. Additionally, a latent diffusion model based on contrastive learning is designed to align different modal data within the latent space, allowing mm-GESCO to reconstruct latent features of any modality presented at the input. Experimental results demonstrate that mm-GESCO achieves a compression ratio of up to 200 times, surpassing the performance of existing semantic communication frameworks and exhibiting excellent performance in downstream tasks such as object classification and detection.

  We propose Modality Adaptation with text-to-image Diffusion Models (MADM) for semantic segmentation task. MADM utilizes text-to-image diffusion models pre-trained on extensive image-text pairs to enhance the model's cross-modality capabilities. We show that MADM achieves state-of-the-art adaptation performance across various modality tasks, including images to depth, infrared, and event modalities.
