Abstract: This study proposes a multimodal approach for timely campus network public opinion monitoring amidst increasing data. The method uses convolutional neural networks, bidirectional encoders, and Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients to extract features from images, text, and speech, which are then fused using a bidirectional gated recurrent unit (BiGRU) for sentiment classification. Comparative experiments demonstrated the superiority of the BiGRU and self-attention mechanism algorithm, achieving an F1 score of 0.85 and accuracy of 0.87. This method consistently achieved the highest accuracy, averaging close to 0.90, with minimal variation as sample size increased. It also maintained the shortest, most stable response time. The proposed monitoring method demonstrates significant performance and high accuracy, offering valuable support for campus management.
