Classification of fashion e-commerce products using ResNet-BERT multi-modal deep learning and transfer learning optimization.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
As the fashion e-commerce markets rapidly develop, tens of thousands of products are registered daily on e-commerce platforms. Individual sellers register products after setting up a product category directly on a fashion e-commerce platform. However, many sellers fail to find a suitable category and mistakenly register their products under incorrect ones. Precise category matching is important for increasing sales through search optimization and accurate product exposure. However, manually correcting registered categories is time-consuming and costly for platform managers. To resolve this problem, this study proposes a methodology for fashion e-commerce product classification based on multi-modal deep learning and transfer learning. Through the proposed methodology, three challenges in classifying fashion e-commerce products are addressed. First, the issue of extremely biased e-commerce data is addressed through under-sampling. Second, multi-modal deep learning enables the model to simultaneously use input data in different formats, which helps mitigate the impact of noisy and low-quality e-commerce data by providing richer information.Finally, the high computational cost and long training times involved in training deep learning models with both image and text data are mitigated by leveraging transfer learning. In this study, three strategies for transfer learning to fine-tune the image and text modules are presented. In addition, five methods for fusing feature vectors extracted from a single modal into one and six strategies for fine-tuning multi-modal models are presented, featuring a total of 14 strategies. The study shows that multi-modal models outperform unimodal models based solely on text or image. It also suggests the optimal conditions for classifying e-commerce products, helping fashion e-commerce practitioners construct models tailored to their respective business environments more efficiently.
