As large language models (LLMs) diversify across modalities, capabilities, and cost profiles, the problem of intelligent request routing: selecting the right model for each query at inference time, has become a critical systems challenge. We present vLLM Semantic Router, a signal-driven decision routing framework for Mixture-of-Modality (MoM) model deployments. The architecture follows two complementary Shannon-inspired views. In the information-theoretic regime, signal extraction reduces the entropy of "which model?" by distilling routing-relevant information from raw queries. In the Boolean-algebraic regime, the decision engine composes functionally complete routing policies from signal conditions. The central innovation is composable signal orchestration: thirteen heterogeneous signal types, spanning sub-millisecond heuristics and neural classifiers for semantics, safety, and modality, are composed through configurable Boolean decision rules into deployment-specific routing policies, so that fundamentally different scenarios (multi-cloud enterprise, privacy-regulated, cost-optimized) are expressed as different configurations over the same architecture. Matched decisions drive semantic model routing via thirteen selection algorithms, while per-decision plugin chains enforce safety constraints including a three-stage HaluGate hallucination detection pipeline and a lightweight episodic memory system with ReflectionGate for personalized multi-turn context. A typed neural-symbolic DSL specifies these routing policies and compiles them to multiple deployment targets, enabling configuration-first adaptation without code changes. Together, these components show that composable signal orchestration enables a single framework to serve diverse deployment scenarios with differentiated cost, privacy, and safety policies.

Industrial anomaly detection (IAD) increasingly benefits from integrating 2D and 3D data, but robust cross-modal fusion remains challenging. We propose a novel unsupervised framework, Multi-Modal Attention-Driven Fusion Restoration (MAFR), which synthesises a unified latent space from RGB images and point clouds using a shared fusion encoder, followed by attention-guided, modality-specific decoders. Anomalies are localised by measuring reconstruction errors between input features and their restored counterparts. Evaluations on the MVTec 3D-AD and Eyecandies benchmarks demonstrate that MAFR achieves state-of-the-art results, with a mean I-AUROC of 0.972 and 0.901, respectively. The framework also exhibits strong performance in few-shot learning settings, and ablation studies confirm the critical roles of the fusion architecture and composite loss. MAFR offers a principled approach for fusing visual and geometric information, advancing the robustness and accuracy of industrial anomaly detection.

The paper presents our proposed solutions for the MediaEval 2020 Flood-Related Multimedia Task, which aims to analyze and detect flooding events in multimedia content shared over Twitter. In total, we proposed four different solutions including a multi-modal solution combining textual and visual information for the mandatory run, and three single modal image and text-based solutions as optional runs. In the multimodal method, we rely on a supervised multimodal bitransformer model that combines textual and visual features in an early fusion, achieving a micro F1-score of .859 on the development data set. For the text-based flood events detection, we use a transformer network (i.e., pretrained Italian BERT model) achieving an F1-score of .853. For image-based solutions, we employed multiple deep models, pre-trained on both, the ImageNet and places data sets, individually and combined in an early fusion achieving F1-scores of .816 and .805 on the development set, respectively.
