Micro-Expression Recognition Based on Attribute Information Embedding and Cross-modal Contrastive Learning

Facial micro-expressions recognition has attracted much attention recently. Micro-expressions have the characteristics of short duration and low intensity, and it is difficult to train a high-performance classifier with the limited number of existing micro-expressions. Therefore, recognizing micro-expressions is a challenge task. In this paper, we propose a micro-expression recognition method based on attribute information embedding and cross-modal contrastive learning. We use 3D CNN to extract RGB features and FLOW features of micro-expression sequences and fuse them, and use BERT network to extract text information in Facial Action Coding System. Through cross-modal contrastive loss, we embed attribute information in the visual network, thereby improving the representation ability of micro-expression recognition in the case of limited samples. We conduct extensive experiments in CASME II and MMEW databases, and the accuracy is 77.82% and 71.04%, respectively. The comparative experiments show that this method has better recognition effect than other methods for micro-expression recognition.

Joint Intent Detection And Slot Filling Based on Continual Learning Model

Slot filling and intent detection have become a significant theme in the field of natural language understanding. Even though slot filling is intensively associated with intent detection, the characteristics of the information required for both tasks are different while most of those approaches may not fully aware of this problem. In addition, balancing the accuracy of two tasks effectively is an inevitable problem for the joint learning model. In this paper, a Continual Learning Interrelated Model (CLIM) is proposed to consider semantic information with different characteristics and balance the accuracy between intent detection and slot filling effectively. The experimental results show that CLIM achieves state-of-the-art performace on slot filling and intent detection on ATIS and Snips.
