A Multimodal Visual–Sentiment Integration Framework for Intelligent Brand Design Optimization

Overview

VisualSentimentBrandOptimizer is an intelligent and adaptive framework designed to enhance the alignment between brand design decisions and consumer emotional responses. Inspired by the research “A brand design optimization model integrating visual feature extraction and sentiment classification mechanisms”, the system integrates visual feature analysis, multimodal fusion, and sentiment-driven optimization strategies to support data-driven brand design.

The framework combines deep visual encoders, sentiment classification models, and iterative optimization mechanisms to capture brand aesthetics, consumer feedback, and emotional perception. Through convolutional feature extraction, multimodal embedding fusion, interpretable sentiment prediction, and optimization-guided visual refinement, the system enables a structured and data-informed approach to brand design improvement.



Features

● Visual Feature Extraction

The system incorporates a deep convolutional architecture to extract multi-level visual representations from brand assets such as logos, packaging, and promotional materials. These extracted features capture color distributions, shapes, textures, and compositional structures that influence consumer sentiment.

● Multimodal Sentiment Integration

Visual embeddings are integrated with textual sentiment signals obtained from user reviews, descriptive annotations, or emotion-laden content. The fusion mechanism reflects the paper’s Visual Sentiment-Driven Brand Design Model (VSBDM), which combines visual and affective cues for more accurate sentiment prediction.

● Sentiment Classification Mechanism

A supervised classification module predicts consumer sentiment categories by analyzing fused multimodal representations. This module employs cross-entropy optimization and incorporates evaluation metrics such as accuracy, recall, precision, and F1-score to assess predictive performance.

● Sentiment-Driven Optimization (SDVO)

An iterative optimization mechanism refines brand design alternatives by leveraging sentiment feedback. The SDVO strategy adjusts brand visuals based on sentiment gradients or performance indicators, allowing designers to explore more emotionally aligned design directions.

● Interpretable Design Insights

The framework highlights which visual regions or features contribute most strongly to predicted sentiment, providing interpretable design cues. It supports understanding of how colors, shapes, and spatial arrangements affect emotional perception.

● Scalable and Domain-Extensible

The architecture supports multiple brand categories, various aesthetic styles, and diverse consumer datasets. Its modular design allows integration with larger datasets, additional visual backbones, and alternative sentiment models.
