Abstract: Provided are a facial expression recognition method and system combined with an attention mechanism. The method comprises: detecting faces comprised in each video frame in a video sequence, and extracting corresponding facial ROIs, so as to obtain facial pictures in each video frame; aligning the facial pictures in each video frame on the basis of location information of facial feature points of the facial pictures; inputting the aligned facial pictures into a residual neural network, and extracting spatial features of facial expressions corresponding to the facial pictures; inputting the spatial features of the facial expressions into a hybrid attention module to acquire fused features of the facial expressions; inputting the fused features of the facial expressions into a gated recurrent unit, and extracting temporal features of the facial expressions; and inputting the temporal features of the facial expressions into a fully connected layer, and classifying and recognizing the facial expressions.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a non-contact fatigue detection system and method based on rPPG. The system and method adopt multi-thread synchronous communication for real-time acquisition and processing of rPPG signal, enabling fatigue status detection. In this setup, the first thread handles real-time rPPG data capture, storage and concatenation, while the second thread conducts real-time analysis and fatigue detection of rPPG data. Through a combination of skin detection and LUV color space conversion, rPPG raw signal extraction is achieved, effectively eliminating interference from internal and external environmental facial noise; Subsequently, an adaptive multi-stage filtering process enhances the signal-to-noise ratio, and a multi-dimensional fusion CNN model ensures accurate detection of respiration and heart rate.

Abstract: The invention provides a wide-aperture spherical primary mirror off-axis afocal optical system, including a primary mirror, a secondary mirror and an aberration compensation mirror group. The primary mirror is a spherical reflector, the secondary mirror are higher-order aspherical reflectors. The primary mirror and the secondary mirror form an off-axis two-mirror system to compress the beam aperture. The aberration compensation mirror group is a coaxial reflective system that is used off-axis. The aberration compensation mirror group has focal power to produce compensation aberrations. The incident beam passes through and is reflected by the primary mirror and secondary mirror sequentially and enters the aberration compensation mirror group thereafter.

Abstract: A fast assembly method of an Offner spectral imaging optical system. The Offner spectral imaging optical system is a concentric or nearly concentric optical system, that is, its primary mirror (7), convex grating (5) and three-mirror (8) are all spherical, and respective centers of curvature coincide or basically coincide. Based on the self-collimation principle, the invention quickly determines the position of the center of curvature of the spherical mirror by observing the self-collimation image after the point light source is reflected by the spherical mirror. The assembly and adjustment method provided by the invention has the characteristics of fast assembly and adjustment speed, high precision, low requirements for assembly and adjustment environment and low required equipment cost, and can quickly and effectively complete the assembly and adjustment of the Offner spectral imaging optical system.

Abstract: An example apparatus is caused to receive a video sequence of a plurality of frames, and perform a number of operations as each of at least some of the frames is received but before all of the frames are received. The apparatus is caused to calculate a score for the frame, and compare the score for the frame to a predefined threshold. The apparatus is caused to cause output of the frame as a key frame in an instance in which the frame is received within a specified period of time and the score for the frame is above the predefined threshold. Otherwise, in an instance in which none of the scores for frames received within the specified period of time is above the predefined threshold, the apparatus is caused to cause output of one of the frames received within the specified period of time as a key frame.
