NPS were mainly type B(39%), characterized by moderate entrenchment and low sinuosity. The remainder were almost equally split between three different classes, highlighting the morphological diversity of NPS. Fiftynine percent of PS belonged to type C;such streams are slightly entrenched, less sinuous and have a sequential riffle-pool configuration. Surface particles were significantly coarser than the subsurface in both stream types in thalweg and low flow areas, whereas in NPS, this was prominent, showing 4-5 times more armoring than PS. Even though the NPS had a significantly coarser surface sediment layer than PS in thalweg and low flow areas, its subsurface sediment showed similar particle sizes to PS;this is an indication of surface armoring and provision of more infiltration of fine particles in NPS. A two-year return period flow event did not result in a change of the cross-section profiles. In both stream types, the horizontal force required to uproot herbaceous vegetation with unexposed roots under moist conditions manually was higher than the tractive force at high flows;however, at bankfull flows, it was lower. Also, the uprooting force in PS was lower than that of NPS, indicating that NPS banks are more stable, and numerical analyses showed they are stable under the self-weight.展开更多

Current public sign language datasets are small and lack diversity, which does not meet the practical application requirements for SLRT. However, making a large-scale and diverse sign language dataset is difficult as sign language data on the Internet is scarce. In making a large-scale and diverse sign language dataset, some sign language data qualities are not up to standard. This paper proposes a two information streams transformer(TIST) model to judge whether the quality of sign language data is qualified. To verify that TIST effectively improves sign language recognition(SLR), we make two datasets, the screened dataset and the unscreened dataset. In this experiment, this paper uses visual alignment constraint(VAC) as the baseline model. The experimental results show that the screened dataset can achieve better word error rate(WER) than the unscreened dataset.展开更多

文摘Micro-expressions(ME)recognition is a complex task that requires advanced techniques to extract informative features fromfacial expressions.Numerous deep neural networks(DNNs)with convolutional structures have been proposed.However,unlike DNNs,shallow convolutional neural networks often outperform deeper models in mitigating overfitting,particularly with small datasets.Still,many of these methods rely on a single feature for recognition,resulting in an insufficient ability to extract highly effective features.To address this limitation,in this paper,an Improved Dual-stream Shallow Convolutional Neural Network based on an Extreme Gradient Boosting Algorithm(IDSSCNN-XgBoost)is introduced for ME Recognition.The proposed method utilizes a dual-stream architecture where motion vectors(temporal features)are extracted using Optical Flow TV-L1 and amplify subtle changes(spatial features)via EulerianVideoMagnification(EVM).These features are processed by IDSSCNN,with an attention mechanism applied to refine the extracted effective features.The outputs are then fused,concatenated,and classified using the XgBoost algorithm.This comprehensive approach significantly improves recognition accuracy by leveraging the strengths of both temporal and spatial information,supported by the robust classification power of XgBoost.The proposed method is evaluated on three publicly available ME databases named Chinese Academy of Sciences Micro-expression Database(CASMEII),Spontaneous Micro-Expression Database(SMICHS),and Spontaneous Actions and Micro-Movements(SAMM).Experimental results indicate that the proposed model can achieve outstanding results compared to recent models.The accuracy results are 79.01%,69.22%,and 68.99%on CASMEII,SMIC-HS,and SAMM,and the F1-score are 75.47%,68.91%,and 63.84%,respectively.The proposed method has the advantage of operational efficiency and less computational time.
文摘Over 100 reaches of perennial streams(PS) and non-perennial streams(NPS) were classified based on the Rosgen stream classification. NPS were mainly type B(39%), characterized by moderate entrenchment and low sinuosity. The remainder were almost equally split between three different classes, highlighting the morphological diversity of NPS. Fiftynine percent of PS belonged to type C;such streams are slightly entrenched, less sinuous and have a sequential riffle-pool configuration. Surface particles were significantly coarser than the subsurface in both stream types in thalweg and low flow areas, whereas in NPS, this was prominent, showing 4-5 times more armoring than PS. Even though the NPS had a significantly coarser surface sediment layer than PS in thalweg and low flow areas, its subsurface sediment showed similar particle sizes to PS;this is an indication of surface armoring and provision of more infiltration of fine particles in NPS. A two-year return period flow event did not result in a change of the cross-section profiles. In both stream types, the horizontal force required to uproot herbaceous vegetation with unexposed roots under moist conditions manually was higher than the tractive force at high flows;however, at bankfull flows, it was lower. Also, the uprooting force in PS was lower than that of NPS, indicating that NPS banks are more stable, and numerical analyses showed they are stable under the self-weight.

文摘The dorsal and ventral visual streams have been considered to play distinct roles in visual processing for action:the dorsal stream is assumed to support real-time actions,while the ventral stream facilitates memory-guided actions.However,recent evidence suggests a more integrated function of these streams.We investigated the neural dynamics and functional connectivity between them during memory-guided actions using intracranial EEG.We tracked neural activity in the inferior parietal lobule in the dorsal stream,and the ventral temporal cortex in the ventral stream as well as the hippocampus during a delayed action task involving object identity and location memory.We found increased alpha power in both streams during the delay,indicating their role in maintaining spatial visual information.In addition,we recorded increased alpha power in the hippocampus during the delay,but only when both object identity and location needed to be remembered.We also recorded an increase in theta band phase synchronization between the inferior parietal lobule and ventral temporal cortex and between the inferior parietal lobule and hippocampus during the encoding and delay.Granger causality analysis indicated dynamic and frequency-specific directional interactions among the inferior parietal lobule,ventral temporal cortex,and hippocampus that varied across task phases.Our study provides unique electrophysiological evidence for close interactions between dorsal and ventral streams,supporting an integrated processing model in which both streams contribute to memory-guided actions.

文摘Sign language dataset is essential in sign language recognition and translation(SLRT). Current public sign language datasets are small and lack diversity, which does not meet the practical application requirements for SLRT. However, making a large-scale and diverse sign language dataset is difficult as sign language data on the Internet is scarce. In making a large-scale and diverse sign language dataset, some sign language data qualities are not up to standard. This paper proposes a two information streams transformer(TIST) model to judge whether the quality of sign language data is qualified. To verify that TIST effectively improves sign language recognition(SLR), we make two datasets, the screened dataset and the unscreened dataset. In this experiment, this paper uses visual alignment constraint(VAC) as the baseline model. The experimental results show that the screened dataset can achieve better word error rate(WER) than the unscreened dataset.
