To address such a challenge, and inspired by the recent success of deep identity network (DeepID-Net) for face identification, this paper proposes a novel deep learning based framework for recognising human expressions with facial images. Compared to the existing deep learning methods, our proposed framework, which is based on multi-scale global images and local facial patches, can significantly achieve a better performance on facial expression recognition. Finally, we verify the effectiveness of our proposed framework through experiments on the public benchmarking datasets JAFFE and extended Cohn-Kanade (CK+).展开更多

Blind source separation(BSS) and independent component analysis(ICA) are the methods to identify/recover the channels and the sources. BSS/ICA of nonlinear mixing models are difficult problems. For instance, the post-nonlinear model has been studied by several authors. It is noticed that in most cases, the proposed models are always with an invertible mixing. According to this fact there is an interesting question, how about the situation of the non-invertible non-linear mixing in BSS or ICA? A new simple non-linear mixing model is proposed with a kind of non-invertible mixing, the folding mixing, and method to identify its channel, blindly.展开更多

The authentication process is very complicated, and therefore, the grid user is in a heavily loaded point both in computation and in communication. Based on identity-based architecture for grid (IBAG) and corresponding encryption and signature schemes, an identity-based authentication protocol for grid is proposed. Being certificate-free, the authentication protocol aligns well with the demands of grid computing. Through simulation testing, it is seen that the authentication protocol is more lightweight and efficient than SAP, especially the more lightweight user side. This contributes to the larger grid scalability.展开更多

White was hom osexual,and he gave a reflection to the sex-related identity concerns in a diverse way because he was deeply depressed by the Australian heterosexual system before and after the Second World War. The sexual themes of the Australian modernistic novels were often manifested in a subtle,indirect way. In this paper,the sexual identity and value of the characters in Australian modernistic novels are discussed,so as to profoundly explore the understandings of human nature.展开更多

Through the endeavor of a group of Afro- American women writers,they have achieved a great success for the cultural identity by concluding their own social experience into works in recent decades. This paper reviews the cultural identity built by Afro- American black women writers and introduces its historical reasons,works,and historical significance. By doing this,we stand to gain insights into the American women writers and find their great contributions to their cultural identity in American culture.展开更多
