Abstract: Microstrabismus is difficult to diagnose using conventional methods due to its subtle presentation and high risk of misdiagnosis. To overcome this limitation, we propose a multimodal diagnostic framework that integrates electrooculogram (EOG) and electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. The framework first preprocesses both signal types and applies principal component analysis to remove redundancy while preserving essential information. A dual-branch architecture then extracts spatio-temporal features from each modality, which are subsequently fused through a multi-layer interaction mechanism designed to capture cross-modal complementarity. To handle inter-sample variability, a gating-based module dynamically adjusts the fusion ratio between modalities according to individual sample characteristics. Experimental results indicate that the proposed model improves diagnostic accuracy by at least 6.35% over baseline methods, demonstrating strong potential for aiding the precise diagnosis of micro-degree strabismus.

Keywords: strabismus diagnosis; multimodal feature fusion; EOG signal; EEG signal; attention mechanism.
