The detection of non-cooperative unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) presents significant challenges for Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) systems due to the inherent limitations of single-modal perception and the competition for shared communication and sensing resources. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a novel Camera-Cooperative ISAC (CC-ISAC) framework that employs multimodal sensing to enable efficient UAV beam steering and tracking. The proposed framework employs cameras for coarse-grained airspace monitoring and utilizes ISAC for fine-grained, high-precision sensing, forming a complementary perception loop that enhances both sensing accuracy and resource efficiency. Within this framework, two key modules are developed: (1) a Vision-to-Echo Data Alignment (V2EDA) model that aligns visual and echo-domain features through cross-attention mechanisms, and (2) a Multimodal Fusion-Based Estimation (MMFE) model that integrates historical multimodal data with current observations for robust state estimation. Extensive evaluations conducted on the DeepSense 6G dataset demonstrate that the proposed framework achieves an average reduction of 71% in beam steering overhead and 1.69-11.15% in tracking overhead while maintaining high angular estimation accuracy. The CC-ISAC framework effectively mitigates resource contention between sensing and communication, enabling reliable UAV surveillance while freeing substantial system resources for additional communication tasks, thereby representing a practical advancement in ISAC system design.

In the wake of the swift evolution of technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), the global data landscape undergoes an exponential surge, propelling DNA storage into the spotlight as a prospective medium for contemporary cloud storage applications. This paper introduces a Semantic Artificial Intelligence-enhanced DNA storage (SemAI-DNA) paradigm, distinguishing itself from prevalent deep learning-based methodologies through two key modifications: 1) embedding a semantic extraction module at the encoding terminus, facilitating the meticulous encoding and storage of nuanced semantic information; 2) conceiving a forethoughtful multi-reads filtering model at the decoding terminus, leveraging the inherent multi-copy propensity of DNA molecules to bolster system fault tolerance, coupled with a strategically optimized decoder's architectural framework. Numerical results demonstrate the SemAI-DNA's efficacy, attaining 2.61 dB Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) gain and 0.13 improvement in Structural Similarity Index (SSIM) over conventional deep learning-based approaches.
