• A Nearable Soft Mat Based on Distributed Optical Fiber Sensing for Physiological Monitoring

  Vincenzo Lavorgna, Martina Pulcinelli, Andrea Polimadei, Rosaria D Amato, Carlo Massaroni, Michele Arturo Caponero, Emiliano Schena, Daniela Lo Presti · 14. Juli 2026

  Distributed optical fiber sensing (DOFS) combines the advantages of fiber optic sensors, including flexibility, small size, immunity to electromagnetic interference, and high metrological performance, with the capability to transform a single optical fiber into a continuous sensing element for spati…

• DUPLE: An Intelligent Cross-Deployment Recognition Framework for Fiber-Optic Perimeter Security under Scarce Target Labels

  Yifan He, Haodong Zhang, Qiuheng Song, Lin Lei, Zhenxuan Zeng, Haoyang He, Hongyan Wu · 23. Juni 2026

  Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing (DFOS) has emerged as a promising technology for long-range and real-time perimeter security in critical infrastructure monitoring. However, DFOS signals collected from different field deployments often exhibit substantial distribution shifts caused by variations in f…

• SagnacAssisted Enhanced OTDR for Distributed Acoustic Sensing: A Standardized Benchmark and Engineering Evaluation Framework

  Weiguang Wang, Fugen Wu, Hailing Wang, Xuechen Liang, Xiaobin Li, Ru Han, Tianchang Xie · 5. Juni 2026

  Phase-sensitive optical time-domain reflectometry ($\phi$-OTDR) is widely used in large-scale distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) because it provides distributed spatiotemporal monitoring over long sensing distances. Its field performance can still deteriorate because of polarization-induced fading (…

• DAStatFormer: A Hybrid Multibranch Transformer with Statistical Feature Integration for DAS-Based Pattern Recognitions

  Michel Dione (CERI SN - IMT Nord Europe), Jerry Lonlac (CERI SN - IMT Nord Europe), H\'el\`ene Louis (CERI SN - IMT Nord Europe), Anthony Fleury (CERI SN - IMT Nord Europe), Stephane Lecoeuche · 2. Juni 2026

  Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) enables large-scale monitoring through optical fibers, but its high dimensionality and complex spatio-temporal patterns make event classification demanding. Existing deep learning approaches-CNNs, recurrent models, and Transformer variants-either fail to capture lo…

• Statistically-Guided Meta-Learning for Cross-Deployment Activity Recognition in Distributed Fiber-Optic Sensing

  Yifan He, Haodong Zhang, Qiuheng Song, Lin Lei, Zhenxuan Zeng, Haoyang He, Hongyan Wu · 28. April 2026

  Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing (DFOS) is promising for long-range perimeter security, yet practical deployment faces three key obstacles: severe cross-deployment domain shift, scarce or unavailable labels at new sites, and limited within-class coverage even in source deployments. We propose DUPLE, …

• PACE: Marrying generalization in PArameter-efficient fine-tuning with Consistency rEgularization

  Yao Ni, Shan Zhang, Piotr Koniusz · 9. März 2026

  Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning (PEFT) effectively adapts pre-trained transformers to downstream tasks. However, the optimization of tasks performance often comes at the cost of generalizability in fine-tuned models. To address this issue, we theoretically connect smaller weight gradient norms durin…

• Phase-OTDR Event Detection Using Image-Based Data Transformation and Deep Learning

  Muhammet Cagri Yeke, Samil Sirin, Kivilcim Yuksel, Abdurrahman Gumus · 8. Dezember 2025

  This study focuses on event detection in optical fibers, specifically classifying six events using the Phase-OTDR system. A novel approach is introduced to enhance Phase-OTDR data analysis by transforming 1D data into grayscale images through techniques such as Gramian Angular Difference Field, Gram…

  Yifan He, Haodong Zhang, Qiuheng Song, Lin Lei, Zhenxuan Zeng, Haoyang He, Hongyan Wu · 25. November 2025

  Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing (DFOS) has shown strong potential in perimeter security due to its capability of monitoring vibration events across long distances with fine spatial resolution. However, practical DFOS systems face three critical challenges: (1) signal patterns of the same activity va…
