Faceting for direction-dependent spectral deconvolution
(2018-03-01)The new generation of radio interferometers is characterized by high sensitivity, wide fields of view and large fractional bandwidth. To synthesize the deepest images enabled by the high dynamic range of these instruments ... -
Facial Discoid Dermatosis: A cosmetically disfiguring and challenging condition to treat
(2021-06-24)Facial discoid dermatosis (FDD) is a recently described condition comprising discrete facial papulo-squamous lesions. We report three cases that clinically and histologically resemble FDD, and demonstrate its resistance ... -
Facial emotion processing in schizophrenia : a non-specific neuropsychological deficit?
(2010)Background: Identification of facial emotions has been found to be impaired in schizophrenia but there are uncertainties about the neuropsychological specificity of the finding. Method: Twenty-two patients with schizophrenia ... -
Facial Expression Recognition using Transfer Learning
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2018-12-24)In this paper, we investigate Deep Learning architectures for the recognition of facial expressions. In particular, we consider the concept of Transfer Learning whereby features learnt from generic images of large scale ... -
