Weakly-Supervised Text-driven Contrastive Learning for Facial Behavior Understanding

Posted by klaurent Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiang Zhang, Taoyue Wang, Xiaotian Li, Huiyuan Yang, Lijun Yin | Summary: Contrastive learning has shown promising potential for learning robust representations by utilizing unlabeled data. However, constructing effective positive-negative pairs for contrastive learning on facial behavior datasets remains challenging. This is because such pairs inevitably encode […]

Detecting Nanometer-Scale New Forces with Coherent Neutron Scattering

Posted by klaurent Stanford

Kavli Affiliate: Giorgio Gratta | First 5 Authors: Zachary Bogorad, Peter W. Graham, Giorgio Gratta, , | Summary: Significant effort has been devoted to searching for new fundamental forces of nature. At short length scales (below approximately 10 nm), the strongest experimental constraints come from neutron scattering from individual nuclei in gases. The leading experiments […]
