  • Publication number: 20240355140
    Abstract: The present invention belongs to the technical field of computer vision, and proposes a lightweight real-time emotion analysis method incorporating eye tracking. In the method, gray frames and event frames that have synchronized time are acquired through event-based cameras and respectively input to a frame branch and an event branch; the frame branch extracts spatial features by convolution operations, and the event branch extracts temporal features through conv-SNN blocks; the frame branch has a guide attention mechanism for the event branch; and the spatial features and the temporal features are integrated by fully connected layers, The final output is the average of the n fully connected layer outputs, which represents the final expression. The method can recognize the emotional expression of any stage in various complex light changing scenarios; and in the case of limited accuracy loss, the emotion recognition time is shortened to achieve “real-time” user emotion analysis.

  • Publication number: 20240152726
    Abstract: A processor-implemented method for a neural architecture search (NAS) starts by generating an over-parameterized super network having multiple layers. The super network has multiple operator types. Each of the layers includes a largest super kernel corresponding to a search space. The method also includes performing gradient descent to evolve a largest super kernel to a small kernel corresponding to the search space in order to generate a range of kernel encodings. The method further includes identifying a subset of kernel encodings from the range of kernel encodings, for each layer of the super network, based on the gradient descent. The method determines a set of candidate architectures based on the subset of kernel encodings, each of the candidate architectures having a different model size. The method selects a target model, from the set of architectures, based on meeting hardware specifications, and then applies the target model.
