Developed on computer assisted instruction, visual education has become a new teaching method, which is a computer technique-based visual design for education. Based on the overview of the previous studies, this paper expounds the main features of education visualisation, outlines the theoretical basis of education visualisation, summarises the empirical study of science education visualisation, and refines the application scenarios and attention matters in the visualisation of science education by using static and dynamic visualisation as the clues for classification. Finally, it is concluded that the effect of education visualisation is remarkable depending on the students' knowledge background, visual perception and comprehension ability. Therefore, the design of educational visualisation must ensure that the objects and contents of visualisation can adapt to the specific conditions and instructional objectives.

Generalized zero-shot learning (GZSL) aims to simultaneously recognize both seen classes and unseen classes by training only on seen class samples and auxiliary semantic descriptions. Recent state-of-the-art methods infer unseen classes based on semantic information or synthesize unseen classes using generative models based on semantic information, all of which rely on the correct alignment of visual–semantic features. However, they often overlook the inconsistency between original visual features and semantic attributes. Additionally, due to the existence of cross-modal dataset biases, the visual features extracted and synthesized by the model may also mismatch with some semantic features, which could hinder the model from properly aligning visual–semantic features. To address this issue, this paper proposes a GZSL framework that enhances the consistency of visual–semantic features using a self-distillation and disentanglement network (SDDN). The aim is to utilize the self-distillation and disentanglement network to obtain semantically consistent refined visual features and non-redundant semantic features to enhance the consistency of visual–semantic features. Firstly, SDDN utilizes self-distillation technology to refine the extracted and synthesized visual features of the model. Subsequently, the visual–semantic features are then disentangled and aligned using a disentanglement network to enhance the consistency of the visual–semantic features. Finally, the consistent visual–semantic features are fused to jointly train a GZSL classifier. Extensive experiments demonstrate that the proposed method achieves more competitive results on four challenging benchmark datasets (AWA2, CUB, FLO, and SUN).
