The gravity-actuated displays can be fabricated using microembossing or photolithography and can be filled and sealed using roll-to-roll techniques. The microcells can also be patterned to provide custom designs, such as official seals.

Abstract: Performance enhancement of face verification systems is credited due to advancement in deep learning methods. However, these systems fail to provide interpretations for decision makings despite their ability to attain high accuracy.

Through experiments, present disclosure demonstrates that the method described herein is resistant to adversarial attacks, thereby addressing another crucial weakness concerning deep learning models.
