Dynamic facial expression recognition (DFER) in the wild is still hindered by data limitations, e.g., insufficient quantity and diversity of pose, occlusion and illumination, as well as the inherent ambiguity of facial expressions. In contrast, static facial expression recognition (SFER) currently shows much higher performance and can benefit from more abundant high-quality training data. Moreover, the appearance features and dynamic dependencies of DFER remain largely unexplored. Recognizing the potential in leveraging SFER knowledge for DFER, we introduce a novel Static-to-Dynamic model (S2D) that leverages existing SFER knowledge and dynamic information implicitly encoded in extracted facial landmark-aware features, thereby significantly improving DFER performance. First, we build and train an image model for SFER, which incorporates a standard Vision Transformer (ViT) and Multi-View Complementary Prompters (MCPs) only. Then, we obtain our video model (i.e., S2D), for DFER, by inserting Temporal-Modeling Adapters (TMAs) into the image model. MCPs enhance facial expression features with landmark-aware features inferred by an off-the-shelf facial landmark detector. And the TMAs capture and model the relationships of dynamic changes in facial expressions, effectively extending the pre-trained image model for videos. Notably, MCPs and TMAs only increase a fraction of trainable parameters (less than +10%) to the original image model. Moreover, we present a novel Emotion-Anchors (i.e., reference samples for each emotion category) based Self-Distillation Loss to reduce the detrimental influence of ambiguous emotion labels, further enhancing our S2D. Experiments conducted on popular SFER and DFER datasets show that we have achieved a new state of the art. 2010-2012 IEEE.

Hydrogen is a highly promising energy carrier because of its renewable and clean qualities. Among the different methods for H2production, photoelectrocatalysis(PEC) water splitting has garnered significant interest, thanks to the abundant and perennial solar energy. Single-atom catalysts(SACs), which feature well-distributed atoms anchored on supports, have gained great attention in PEC water splitting for their unique advantages in overcoming the limitations of conventional PEC ***, we comprehensively review SAC-incorporated photoelectrocatalysts for efficient PEC water splitting. We begin by highlighting the benefits of SACs in improving charge transfer, catalytic selectivity, and catalytic activity, which address the limitations of conventional PEC reactions. Next, we provide a comprehensive overview of established synthetic techniques for optimizing the properties of SACs, along with modern characterization methods to confirm their unique structures. Finally, we discuss the challenges and future directions in basic research and advancements, providing insights and guidance for this developing field.

In recent years, novel view synthesis from a monocular image has become a research hot-spot that attracts significant attention. Some recent work identifies latent vectors for high-quality view generation via iterative optimisation, which is a time-consuming process. In contrast, some others utilise an encoder learning a mapping function to approximately estimate optimal latent codes, which significantly reduces its processing time but sacrifices reconstruction quality. Consequently, how to balance synthesis quality and its generation efficiency still remains challenging. In this paper, we propose a residual-based encoder to incorporate with a 3D Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN), named ReE3D, for novel view synthesis. It applies an iterative prediction of latent codes to ensure much higher quality of novel view synthesis with an insignificant increase of processing time when compared to existing encoder-based 3D GAN inversion methods. Additionally, we enforce a novel geometric loss constraint on the encoder to predict view-invariant latent codes, thus effectively mitigating the trade-off between geometric and texture quality in 3D GAN inversion. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that our extended encoder-based method has achieved best trade-off performance in terms of novel view synthesis quality and its execution time. Our method has gained comparable synthesis quality with exponentially decreased processing time when compared to iterative optimisation methods, while improved synthesis performance of encoder-based methods significantly.
