[0042] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments only represent a part of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without any creative effort belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0043] The present application provides a bone injury nursing effect evaluation method and system based on multi-modal data fusion. The core is to obtain multi-modal data in bone injury nursing, pre-process the multi-modal data to obtain a multi-modal time series tensor, extract deep features from the imaging data in the multi-modal time series tensor to obtain an imaging feature vector, extract mechanical features from the motion data in the multi-modal time series tensor to obtain a mechanical feature vector, construct a nursing digital twin in bone injury nursing based on the imaging feature vector and the mechanical feature vector, perform multi-modal fusion evaluation through the current state of the nursing digital twin to obtain a comprehensive nursing evaluation result, construct an imaging contribution heat map and a mechanical contribution heat map based on the comprehensive nursing evaluation result, and dynamically update the nursing digital twin in bone injury nursing based on the imaging contribution heat map and the mechanical contribution heat map. The above scheme can construct a nursing digital twin with interpretive output and closed-loop updating mechanism based on contribution visualization, so as to improve the interpretability and accuracy of bone injury nursing effect evaluation.

[0044] In order to better understand the above technical solutions, the above technical solutions will be described in detail below in combination with the drawings in the specification and specific embodiments. Referring to Figure 1 The figure is an exemplary flowchart of a bone injury nursing effect evaluation method based on multi-modal data fusion according to some embodiments of the present application, which mainly includes the following steps:

[0045] In step S101, multi-modal data in bone injury nursing is obtained, and the multi-modal data is preprocessed to obtain a multi-modal time series tensor.

[0046] It should be noted that in the present application, the multi-modal data includes image data and motion data in bone injury nursing. In specific implementation, first, the injured part is periodically imaged and collected by a bedside imaging device, a portable ultrasound instrument or a follow-up film shooting system to obtain image sequences such as fracture alignment, soft tissue swelling and callus formation, i.e. image data in bone injury nursing; then, the motion data such as limb segment motion trajectory, joint angle change and dynamic force during training is synchronously collected by using wearable inertial sensors, surface electromyography patches or rehabilitation monitoring cameras, so as to obtain motion data in bone injury nursing.

[0047] In some embodiments, the pre-processing of the multi-modal data is time stamp alignment and missing value filling of the multi-modal data, and then a multi-modal time series tensor is obtained.

[0048] In specific implementation, first, a unified nursing period time axis can be constructed according to the original time stamps recorded by the image collection device and the motion sensor, and each modal data is mapped to the unified time axis to realize accurate alignment of the image modal and the motion modal in the time dimension. Then, for the time sequence gaps on the time axis caused by image interval collection or sensor instantaneous drop, interpolation inference, time series smoothing or trend compensation based on neighborhood dynamics characteristics can be used to fill the missing data points, so that the multi-modal sequence remains unified in continuity and dimension consistency. Finally, the image feature sequence and the motion feature sequence after time alignment and missing completion can be stacked or spliced according to the time dimension to construct a multi-modal time series tensor containing multi-source information and having complete time series structure, which provides a standardized input for the subsequent nursing effect evaluation model.

[0049] In step S102, deep feature extraction is performed on the image data in the multi-modal time series tensor to obtain an imaging feature vector, and mechanical feature extraction is performed on the motion data in the multi-modal time series tensor to obtain a mechanical feature vector.

[0050] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2As shown, the figure is an exemplary flowchart for determining an imaging feature vector according to some embodiments of the present application. In this embodiment, the following steps can be used to extract deep features from the image data in the multi-modal time-series tensor to obtain an imaging feature vector:

[0051] In step S1021, the image data in the multi-modal time-series tensor is pre-processed at the pixel level, and the pre-processed image data is then subjected to image deep segmentation to obtain a pixel-level segmentation mask.

[0052] In step S1022, the pixel-level segmentation mask is subjected to fracture feature extraction to obtain callus features, fracture line clarity, and skeletal alignment and alignment geometry.

[0053] In step S1023, the callus features, the fracture line clarity, and the skeletal alignment and alignment geometry are used to construct an imaging feature vector.

[0054] In a specific implementation, first, the image data in the multi-modal time-series tensor can be pre-processed at the pixel level, i.e., noise suppression processing (such as non-local mean or bilateral filtering-based noise reduction) is performed on the original image at each time point, and intensity normalization is performed to eliminate gray level differences caused by different devices or scanning parameters, so as to resample voxels or pixels to unify the spatial resolution, and if it is a multi-time point image, rigid and non-rigid registration is further used to ensure consistency of the same anatomical position. Then, the pre-processed image data can be subjected to image deep segmentation, i.e., the pre-processed image data is input into a trained deep segmentation network for pixel-level segmentation. In the training stage, a joint optimization of the intersection over union loss and the boundary loss is used to improve the recognition accuracy of small callus and fracture line edges, and the segmentation inference output is a binary mask of bone tissue and callus and a pixel-level confidence map, so as to obtain a pixel-level segmentation mask that defines the region of interest for subsequent feature extraction and passes the confidence.

[0055] In addition, in specific implementation, pixel-level segmentation mask can be subjected to bone fracture feature extraction, that is, the total number of voxels (three-dimensional pixels) marked as "callus" in the pixel-level segmentation mask is directly calculated, and then multiplied by the physical volume of each voxel (calculated from the pixel spacing and layer thickness in the DICOM header file), that is, callus volume = callus voxel number x single voxel volume, so as to take the calculated callus volume as the callus feature; in the bone fracture line region of the pixel-level segmentation mask, a clear edge pixel can be extracted using an edge detection algorithm (such as Canny), and the average gradient value of the edge pixel is calculated, so as to take the average gradient value as the bone fracture line clarity, which represents the clarity of the bone fracture line; the skeleton contour segmented from the pixel-level segmentation mask is extracted, the long axis of the skeleton contour is extracted through principal component analysis or model fitting, so as to calculate the included angle of the long axes of the two ends of the bone fracture as the angulation angle, and calculate the displacement distance of the dislocation of the bone fracture ends as the displacement distance, and take the angulation angle and the displacement distance as the geometric features of the bone alignment and alignment. Finally, the radiological feature vector can be constructed based on the callus feature, the bone fracture line clarity and the geometric features of the bone alignment and alignment, that is, the feature vector composed of the callus feature, the bone fracture line clarity and the geometric features of the bone alignment and alignment is taken as the radiological feature vector.

[0056] In some embodiments, the mechanical feature extraction on the motion data in the multi-modal time series tensor can be performed in the following manner, that is:

[0057] The motion data in the multi-modal time series tensor is calibrated, and then the calibrated motion data is subjected to gait cycle detection to obtain a gait cycle sequence;

[0058] The basic gait parameters of each gait cycle in the gait cycle sequence are determined respectively;

[0059] The mechanical features and variability indexes of each gait cycle are determined according to the corresponding basic gait parameters;

[0060] The mechanical feature vector is constructed through the mechanical features and variability indexes of all gait cycles.

[0061] In specific implementation, firstly, the motion data in the multi-modal time series tensor can be calibrated, i.e., the original sensor signals are resampled at a unified sampling frequency and band-pass filtered to remove DC drift and high-frequency noise, then the gravity component is separated from the linear acceleration by using attitude filtering or complementary filtering, and the relative installation transformation between sensors is estimated by static or dynamic calibration methods, so as to output the calibrated and coordinate-aligned continuous time series signals, i.e., the calibrated motion data. Then, the calibrated motion data can be subjected to gait cycle detection, i.e., the heel strike and toe-off times are identified by peak detection and threshold judgment on the vertical acceleration or pressure signals in the motion data, and false pulses are removed by applying minimum step interval and posterior consistency verification, and a gait cycle sequence with start and end time labels is output, so as to obtain the gait cycle sequence. Secondly, the basic gait parameters of each gait cycle in the gait cycle sequence can be determined, i.e., for each gait cycle in the gait cycle sequence, the basic gait parameters can be calculated cycle by cycle, the basic gait parameters include the step time, step length, step frequency, instantaneous step speed, left and right single-limb support time and double-limb support time, and peak value and amplitude of joint angle of each cycle, the step length can be integrated based on the foot velocity and corrected by zero velocity update to reduce cumulative error, and in this way, the basic gait parameters of each gait cycle in the gait cycle sequence can be obtained.

[0062] In addition, in specific implementation, the mechanical characteristics and variability indexes of each gait cycle can be determined according to the corresponding basic gait parameters, it should be noted that in the present application, the mechanical characteristics include average speed, single-limb weight-bearing duration ratio, peak value of joint range of motion, peak value of center of gravity acceleration, and phase energy distribution, the variability indexes include coefficient of variation of step time and step length, variation amplitude of step frequency, spectral entropy and short-term frequency band energy fluctuation, and time series uncertainty measure reflecting gait stability, the above-mentioned mechanical characteristics and variability indexes can be calculated by existing algorithms, which will not be described here. Finally, the mechanical characteristic vector can be constructed by the mechanical characteristics and variability indexes of all gait cycles, i.e., the mechanical characteristics and variability indexes of all gait cycles are combined and aligned in time sequence, so as to obtain the final feature vector as the mechanical characteristic vector.

[0063] It should be noted that the deep feature extraction of the image data and the motion data in the multi-modal time sequence tensor can convert the structural change information of fracture healing and the dynamic performance of patient functional recovery from original high-dimensional data into stable, quantifiable and fusable representations, so that the image morphology, callus growth, alignment changes and factors such as gait speed, weight-bearing capacity and stability that are originally difficult to directly compare between different modalities can be uniformly expressed in the same feature space; the deep image features can accurately capture small changes such as callus formation and fracture line blurring, while the mechanical features can reflect the real movement ability and recovery trend of the patient, which helps to form a global, dynamic and quantifiable description of the nursing effect of bone injury.

[0064] In step S103, a nursing digital twin in bone injury nursing is constructed based on the imaging feature vector and the mechanical feature vector, multi-modal fusion evaluation is performed through the current state of the nursing digital twin, and a comprehensive nursing evaluation result is obtained.

[0065] In some embodiments, the construction of the nursing digital twin in bone injury nursing based on the imaging feature vector and the mechanical feature vector can be specifically performed in the following manner, that is:

[0066] The imaging feature vector and the mechanical feature vector are time-aligned and standardized to obtain a state vector in bone injury nursing;

[0067] A parameterized proxy model is constructed through the state vector;

[0068] The proxy model is individually tuned to obtain the nursing digital twin in bone injury nursing.

[0069] In a specific implementation, first, the imaging feature vector and the mechanical feature vector can be time-aligned and standardized, that is, the imaging feature vector and the mechanical feature vector are strictly aligned according to their respective time markers, and a unified normalization and standardization strategy (for example, based on training set quantile scaling or zero mean unit variance transformation) is adopted for each feature, while the quality confidence of each feature is used to weight the abnormal values and compensate for the missing values, and a state vector that is consistent in time and comparable in value is output, that is, the state vector in bone injury care. Then, a parameterized proxy model can be constructed from the state vector, that is, a parameterized proxy model is constructed with the state vector as the observation input, which consists of two parts: one is a geometry-mechanics approximation sub-model based on physics, which is used to constrain the geometric size, material stiffness and healing-related physical parameters with imaging features; the second is a data-driven dynamic sub-model, which is used to describe the boundary load, functional response and time evolution law with mechanical features, and the proxy model is expressed in the form of parameter set and exposes adjustable parameters for subsequent calibration. Finally, the proxy model can be individually parameterized, that is, individualized parameterization is implemented based on the patient's past time series observation data and the forward simulation output of the proxy model, the parameter prior can be set and the difference between the model output and the observation can be measured by the loss function, then the parameter estimation method (such as Bayesian inference or least squares optimization combined with regularization) is used to iteratively solve the posterior distribution or optimal point estimate of the parameters, and Monte Carlo sampling or robust optimization is introduced in the process to quantify the parameter uncertainty and prevent overfitting, completing the calibration of key parameters such as geometry, mechanics and healing rate; and the parameterized proxy model is coupled with its data-driven dynamic part, and it is deployed as a runnable care digital twin, so that the care digital twin in bone injury care can be obtained.

[0070] In some embodiments, the multi-modal fusion evaluation by the current state of the care digital twin is to input the current state of the care digital twin as input data into a multi-modal evaluation model for evaluation, and then obtain a comprehensive care evaluation result.

[0071] In a specific implementation, first, the current state of the nursing digital twin can be provided as input data to the multi-modal evaluation model, i.e., normalization and confidence weighting are performed on the current state to ensure the comparability of features from different sources in terms of numerical scale and reliability, and the processed vector is directly input to the next step. Then, a multi-modal feature encoder is used to encode the imaging sub-vector and the mechanical sub-vector of the nursing digital twin, respectively. The encoder can be a network based on sequence modeling or a transformer based on self-attention mechanism, which outputs the imaging time sequence representation and the mechanical time sequence representation, respectively. The encoder also returns the attention weight of each modality as intermediate explanatory information. Second, the time sequence representation and the corresponding attention weight of each modality are input into a fusion unit. The fusion unit performs weighted aggregation based on the attention weight and the confidence, and combines a time consistency correction module to eliminate the influence of short-term abnormal windows. The fusion unit outputs a unified multi-modal comprehensive representation. Finally, the multi-modal comprehensive representation can be input into the evaluation decision layer, which performs regression and classification tasks in parallel to output the comprehensive nursing evaluation results, including functional recovery score, pain relief score, life ability score, and comprehensive nursing score. During the evaluation process, a prediction method with uncertainty estimation is used to output point estimates and confidence intervals simultaneously.

[0072] It should be noted that the imaging feature vector and the mechanical feature vector are used together to construct the nursing digital twin, and multi-modal fusion evaluation is carried out based on the current state of the digital twin. This can integrate complementary information with a unified parameterized physiological structure-function model, so that the model can reflect structural changes such as callus formation and alignment from the imaging perspective, and can also depict functional changes such as gait recovery and load capacity from the mechanical perspective. On this basis, multi-modal fusion evaluation can accurately quantify the contribution of each modality feature to the evaluation result through attention weight and sensitivity analysis, thereby significantly improving the accuracy and interpretability of the comprehensive evaluation result.

[0073] In step S104, an imaging contribution heat map and a mechanical contribution heat map are constructed based on the comprehensive nursing evaluation result, and the nursing digital twin in bone injury nursing is dynamically updated based on the imaging contribution heat map and the mechanical contribution heat map.

[0074] In some embodiments, the imaging contribution heat map and the mechanical contribution heat map can be constructed based on the comprehensive nursing evaluation result in the following manner, i.e.:

[0075] Obtaining intermediate output in multi-modal fusion evaluation;

[0076] Extracting an influence quantity for explanation from the intermediate output and the comprehensive nursing evaluation result;

[0077] performing reverse mapping on the image-related influence quantity in the influence quantity to obtain a pixel contribution map;

[0078] performing regional aggregation on the pixel contribution map to further generate an imaging contribution heat map;

[0079] extracting a contribution value sequence of a mechanical feature vector in the influence quantity, and performing rule projection on the contribution value sequence to obtain a mechanical contribution distribution map;

[0080] performing time smoothing and confidence weighting processing on the mechanical contribution distribution map to further generate a mechanical contribution heat map.

[0081] In specific implementation, first, intermediate outputs and final scores can be obtained from a multi-modal fusion evaluation process as original inputs. Then, influence quantities for explanation can be extracted from the intermediate outputs and comprehensive nursing evaluation results, including model attention weights on input features, gradient sensitivity of prediction scores on input pixels or features, and sensitivity changes obtained based on input perturbation, which serve as the basis for subsequent mapping and projection. Second, image-related influence quantities in the influence quantity can be reversely mapped, specifically, pixel-level gradient sensitivity and model output attention weights are multiplied according to pixel correspondence and combined with pixel confidence in the segmentation mask for weighting to obtain an original pixel contribution map, and local statistical filtering is performed on the original pixel contribution map to suppress noise and fill in isolated artifacts, and the output is a smoothed pixel contribution map with confidence annotation. Further, regional aggregation can be performed on the pixel contribution map, that is, the pixel contribution map is aggregated in regions with anatomical partitions or segmentation masks as units, the cumulative contribution value of each region is calculated and normalized to form imaging contribution heat map layers layered by anatomical sites and time points, thereby obtaining an imaging contribution heat map.

[0082] In addition, in specific implementation, a contribution value sequence of a mechanical feature vector can be extracted from the influence quantity, that is, a contribution value sequence of the mechanical feature vector over each time window or gait cycle is extracted from the influence quantity, and the contribution value sequence is projected onto space or gait phase according to a pre-defined mapping rule, specifically including projecting left-right support time ratio to corresponding parts of left and right lower limbs, projecting joint range of motion to corresponding joint regions, projecting step frequency and step speed to the phase axis of gait cycle, to generate an original mechanical contribution distribution map. Finally, time smoothing and confidence weighting processing can be performed on the mechanical contribution distribution map, that is, smoothing processing is performed on the mechanical contribution distribution map along the time axis to weaken short-term abnormalities, and sensor quality metrics and event recognition confidence are used to weight and adjust the contribution values at each time point to reduce the impact of low-quality data on visualization, and the output is a time-continuous mechanical contribution heat map with confidence.

[0083] In some embodiments, dynamically updating the care digital twin in bone injury care based on the imaging contribution heat map and the mechanical contribution heat map can be implemented in the following manner, that is:

[0084] Inputting the imaging contribution heat map and the mechanical contribution heat map as external feedback signals into the care digital twin;

[0085] Adjusting internal parameters of the care digital twin according to the external feedback signals, thereby obtaining an updated care digital twin.

[0086] In specific implementation, first, the imaging contribution heat map and the mechanical contribution heat map can be inputted as external feedback signals into the care digital twin. Then, the care digital twin adjusts internal parameters according to the feedback signals, which specifically includes two types of operations: one type is to increase the weight or reduce the prior constraint of the corresponding bone geometry parameters, callus volume estimation, fracture line clarity index and related healing rate parameters for the region with high imaging contribution, so as to improve the sensitivity of the care digital twin to key structural changes; the other type is to dynamically adjust the gait cycle parameters, step frequency, step speed, support time ratio and joint range of motion and other related parameters for the feature with high mechanical contribution, while increasing the uncertainty or regularization constraint for low contribution or unstable features to reduce their noise interference; in the adjustment process, the care digital twin iteratively calculates the new estimated value of each parameter through optimization algorithm or Bayesian update method, to ensure that the adjusted parameters can reflect the latest contribution information and maintain the stability of the overall care digital twin; finally, the parameter set after adjustment is coupled with the dynamic prediction module of the twin to form an updated care digital twin, which can more accurately perform multi-modal fusion evaluation, generate explanatory contribution heat map and support closed-loop update mechanism to continuously optimize the accuracy and interpretability of bone injury care effect evaluation when new imaging or mechanical state vectors are inputted subsequently.

[0087] It should be noted that, according to the construction of the imaging contribution heat map and the mechanical contribution heat map based on the comprehensive nursing evaluation result, and the dynamic updating of the nursing digital twin by using the two types of heat maps, the key influencing factors in the comprehensive evaluation result can be explicitly visualized and directly act on the internal parameters of the nursing digital twin, so that the sensitivity and accuracy of the digital twin to the structural healing indicators and functional mechanical characteristics are optimized. Specifically, the imaging heat map highlights the contribution of structural key regions such as callus volume, fracture line clarity and bone alignment to the evaluation result, while the mechanical heat map reveals the influence of functional key characteristics such as gait parameters, joint range of motion and support time. These information as external feedback guide the twin to dynamically adjust parameters and weights, realize the enhancement of high contribution characteristics and the uncertainty weighting of low contribution characteristics, thus forming a closed-loop updating mechanism.
