Classical Chinese poetry is a treasured cultural heritage of humanity, attracting extensive research interest. However, the study of classical Chinese poetry is hindered by the lack of open, large-scale, and fine-grained multimodal datasets.Prior datasets are either limited by modality constraints, dataset size, or the level of dataset refinement, making them inadequate for effectively supporting studies and the development of applications in classical Chinese poetry.To address these issues, we propose a method for constructing a large-scale and fine-grained multimodal knowledge graph of classical Chinese poetry. We first design an informative ontology graph for classical Chinese poetry and comprehensively collect knowledge about poetry based on it. Furthermore, the method leverages knowledge augmentation, prompt optimization, and text-image alignment to acquire comprehensive, fine-grained knowledge. Both qualitative and quantitative evaluations are conducted on the Multimodal Knowledge Graph of Classical Chinese Poetry (CPMK), highlighting its comprehensiveness and high quality.We also conduct downstream evaluations on four tasks: poetry question answering, poetry theme classification, poetry-image retrieval, and rigid-formats poetry generation.Significant results are achieved across all four tasks, demonstrating CPMK’s effectiveness in supporting research on Chinese poetry.CPMK will be released to promote research in Chinese culture.

"Rumor detection on social media has recently attracted significant attention. Due to the complex user group and lack of regulation, rumor-spreaders intentionally disseminate rumors to sway pub-lic opinion, severely harming the general interests. Existing approaches generally perform rumor detection by analyzing both image and text modalities, and pay less attention to the interaction behaviors in social media, which can assist in distinguishing rumors from normal information.Furthermore, the images associated with rumors are often inconsistent or manipulated, how to distinguish these different features and utilize them effectively has become crucial in prevent-ing the widespread dissemination of rumors. To address the aforementioned issues, we proposeCross-modal Ambiguity Learning with Heterogeneous Interaction Analysis (CAHIA) for rumor detection. Specially, we design a novel heterogeneous graph feature extractor to fully utilize the different types of behavioral patterns in social interaction networks, we design an frequency inception net to extract manipulated visual features and adopt different fusing strategies to detect various types of rumors according to the ambiguity between text and image. Finally, a hierarchical cross-modal fusing mechanism is used to simulate the process users view and determine the authenticity of posts. Extensive experiments results demonstrate that CAHIA outperforms state-of-the-art models on four large-scale datasets for rumor detection in social media."
