Additive Margin Softmax for Face Verification [PDF]

IEEE Signal Processing Letters, 2018
In this letter, we propose a conceptually simple and intuitive learning objective function, i.e., additive margin softmax, for face verification. In general, face verification tasks can be viewed as metric learning problems, even though lots of face ...

Facing Aggressiveness in Face-to-Face Arguing

Ukrainian Policymaker, 2019
The Ukrainian identity issue is crucial for the future development of Ukraine as an independent country. In this regard, any research intended to address this issue is highly important. Among them is the project presented in this paper. In our opinion, its results may have an impact on the understanding of key traits of the Ukrainian identity.

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks

Population Ecology, EarlyView.
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

Positive emotional valence in spontaneous facial expressions of autistic adolescents

Scientific Reports
Facial expressions produced by autistic individuals are often perceived as difficult to interpret. Most data on facial expression production rely on posed or mimicked facial expressions, which may not be representative of spontaneous expressiveness.

Geographic variation in walking activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum

Population Ecology, EarlyView.
This study examined whether there is geographic variation in field populations, focusing on the moving activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum. Results showed significant differences in moving activity among field populations but no correlation with latitude or meteorological factors.

occumb: An R package for site occupancy modeling of eDNA metabarcoding data

Population Ecology, EarlyView.
This study introduces a new R package, occumb, for the convenient application of site occupancy modeling using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding data. We outline a data analysis workflow, including data setup, model fitting, model assessment, and comparison of potential study settings based on model predictions, all of which can be performed using
