Facial expression analysis and recognition has gained popularity in the last few years for its challenging nature and broad area of applications like HCI, pain detection, operator fatigue detection, surveillance, etc. The key of real-time FER system is exploiting its variety of features extracted from the source image. In this article, three different features viz. local binary pattern, Gabor, and local directionality pattern were exploited to perform feature fusion and two classification algorithms viz. support vector machines and artificial neural networks were used to validate the proposed model on benchmark datasets. The classification accuracy has been improved in the proposed feature fusion of Gabor and LDP features with SVM classifier, recorded an average accuracy of 93.83% on JAFFE, 95.83% on CK and 96.50% on MMI. The recognition rates were compared with the existing studies in the literature and found that the proposed feature fusion model has improved the performance.

This paper proposes a two-level joint information fusion model combining BP neural network and D-S evidence theory. The model of great practical value reduces target identification error probability by multiple features of the target information, shows good scalability with its two steps of information fusion model, and conveniently increases/reduces feature fusion information source according to different situations and different objects. The method used for intelligent vehicles has good flexibility and robustness in tracking and avoiding obstacle. The simulation and real vehicle tests have verified effectiveness of the method.

Automatic computer security inspection of X-ray scanned images has an irresistible trend in modern life. Aiming to address the inconvenience of recognizing small-sized prohibited item objects, and the potential class imbalance within multi-label object classification of X-ray scanned images, this paper proposes a deep feature fusion model-based dual branch network architecture. Firstly, deep feature fusion is a method to fuse features extracted from several model layers. Specifically, it operates these features by upsampling and dimension reduction to match identical sizes, then fuses them by element-wise sum. In addition, this paper introduces focal loss to handle class imbalance. For balancing importance on samples of minority and majority class, it assigns weights to class predictions. Additionally, for distinguishing difficult samples from easy samples, it introduces modulating factor. Dual branch network adopts the two components above and integrates them in final loss calculation through the weighted sum. Experimental results illustrate that the proposed method outperforms baseline and state-of-art by a large margin on various positive/negative ratios of datasets. These demonstrate the competitivity of the proposed method in classification performance and its potential application under actual circumstances.
