通过稀疏解耦与文本图像差异过滤，提升多模态物体重识别的准确率与可解释性。

Multi-modal object re-identification (Re-ID) aims to facilitate cross-camera object retrieval in complex environments by leveraging complementary information from visual (e.g., RGB, NIR, TIR) and textual modalities. However, existing approaches often lack principled feature disentanglement and coherent multi-modal integration, leading to entangled representations that introduce cross-modal conflicts, obscure discriminative cues, and suffer distribution shift under modality-missing conditions. To tackle these challenges, we propose MODAL, a novel multi-modal object re-identification framework, grounded in coupled sparse coding theory and differential suppression principles. A core component of MODAL is a Multi-modal Feature Sparse Decoupling module, developed in a model-driven deep unrolling manner based on multi-modal coupled sparse coding. It explicitly decomposes multi-modal features into uni-modal specific, bi-modal and tri-modal shared representations, thereby achieving more transparent and effective feature disentanglement. Benefiting from the principled feature disentanglement, MODAL naturally mitigates performance degradation in incomplete-modality scenarios via a Modality-Aware Subspace Activation that selectively activates only the consistently shared subspaces. Moreover, we propose a Text-Image Differential Filtering module that leverages coarse-grained textual semantics to adaptively suppress task-irrelevant responses in the decoupled visual representations, thereby enhancing discriminative information. Extensive experiments on four datasets demonstrate that MODAL achieves state-of-the-art performance with superior transparency.
