Facial expression recognition (FER) in the wild is challenged by co-occurring visual perturbations (e.g., occlusions, pose variations) and label noise. Existing methods often address these issues in isolation, failing to handle their compound effects effectively. To this end, we propose D^3FER (Dual
Concept Bottleneck Models (CBMs) enhance interpretability by explaining predictions through human-understandable concepts but typically assume that training and test data share the same distribution. This assumption often fails under domain shifts, leading to degraded performance and poor generaliza…
With the emergence of pre-trained vision-language models like CLIP how to adapt them to various downstream classification tasks has garnered significant attention in recent research. The adaptation strategies can be typically categorized into three paradigms: zero-shot adaptation few-shot adaptation…
Detecting anomalies on attributed graphs is a challenging task since labelled anomalies are highly labour-intensive by taking specialized domain knowledge to make anomalous samples not as available as normal ones. Moreover, graphs contain complex structure information as well as attribute informatio…
Deep learning in computer vision has achieved great success with the price of large-scale labeled training data. However, exhaustive data annotation is impracticable for each task of all domains of interest, due to high labor costs and unguaranteed labeling accuracy. Besides, the uncontrollable data…
Despite the popularization of deep neural networks (DNNs) in many fields, it is still challenging to deploy state-of-the-art models to resource-constrained devices due to high computational overhead. Model pruning provides a feasible solution to the aforementioned challenges. However, the interpreta…
From the perspective of the spatial domain, Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) is essentially a process of iteratively aggregating neighbor nodes. However, the existing GCNs using simple average or sum aggregation may neglect the characteristics of each node and the topology between nodes, resulting…
Existing graph contrastive methods have benefited from ingenious data augmantations and mutual information estimation operations that are carefully designated to augment graph views and maximize the agreement between representations produced at the aftermost layer of two view networks. However, the…
Graph convolutional network (GCN) is a novel framework that utilizes a pre-defined Laplacian matrix to learn graph data effectively. With its powerful nonlinear fitting ability, GCN can produce high-quality node embedding. However, generalized GCN can only handle static graphs, whereas a large numbe…
"Semi-supervised learning (SSL) has achieved new progress recently with the emerging framework of self-training deep networks, where the criteria for selection of unlabeled samples with pseudo labels play a key role in the empirical success. In this work, we propose such a new criterion based on con…
Semi-supervised learning (SSL) has been studied for a long time to solve vision tasks in data-efficient application scenarios. SSL aims to learn a good classification model using a few labeled data together with large-scale unlabeled data. Recent advances achieve the goal by combining multiple SSL t…
The point cloud representation of an object can have a large geometric variation in view of inconsistent data acquisition procedure, which thus leads to domain discrepancy due to diverse and uncontrollable shape representation cross datasets. To improve discrimination on unseen distribution of point…
Unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) is to make predictions for unlabeled data on a target domain, given labeled data on a source domain whose distribution shifts from the target one. Mainstream UDA methods learn aligned features between the two domains, such that a classifier trained on the source…
Unsupervised domain adaptation aims to learn a model of classifier for unlabeled samples on the target domain, given training data of labeled samples on the source domain. Impressive progress is made recently by learning invariant features via domain-adversarial training of deep networks. In spite o…
Fine-grained visual categorization (FGVC) is challenging due in part to the fact that it is often difficult to acquire an enough number of training samples. To employ large models for FGVC without suffering from overfitting, existing methods usually adopt a strategy of pre-training the models using…
Piezoelectric ceramics(PZT)actuator has been widely used in flexure-guided nanopositioning stage because of their high resolution. However, it is quite hard to achieve high-rate precision positioning control because of the complex hysteresis nonlinearity effect of PZT actuator. Thus, an online RELM…
