The Weight Distributions of a Class of Cyclic Codes with Three Nonzeros over F3
Cyclic codes have efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. The decoding
error probability and the undetected error probability are usually bounded by
or given from the weight distributions of the codes. Most researches are about
the determination of the weight distributions of cyclic codes with few
nonzeros, by using quadratic form and exponential sum but limited to low
moments. In this paper, we focus on the application of higher moments of the
exponential sum to determine the weight distributions of a class of ternary
cyclic codes with three nonzeros, combining with not only quadratic form but
also MacWilliams' identities. Another application of this paper is to emphasize
the computer algebra system Magma for the investigation of the higher moments.
In the end, the result is verified by one example using Matlab.Comment: 10 pages, 3 table
Deep Learning Face Attributes in the Wild
Predicting face attributes in the wild is challenging due to complex face
variations. We propose a novel deep learning framework for attribute prediction
in the wild. It cascades two CNNs, LNet and ANet, which are fine-tuned jointly
with attribute tags, but pre-trained differently. LNet is pre-trained by
massive general object categories for face localization, while ANet is
pre-trained by massive face identities for attribute prediction. This framework
not only outperforms the state-of-the-art with a large margin, but also reveals
valuable facts on learning face representation.
(1) It shows how the performances of face localization (LNet) and attribute
prediction (ANet) can be improved by different pre-training strategies.
(2) It reveals that although the filters of LNet are fine-tuned only with
image-level attribute tags, their response maps over entire images have strong
indication of face locations. This fact enables training LNet for face
localization with only image-level annotations, but without face bounding boxes
or landmarks, which are required by all attribute recognition works.
(3) It also demonstrates that the high-level hidden neurons of ANet
automatically discover semantic concepts after pre-training with massive face
identities, and such concepts are significantly enriched after fine-tuning with
attribute tags. Each attribute can be well explained with a sparse linear
combination of these concepts.Comment: To appear in International Conference on Computer Vision (ICCV) 201
Talking Face Generation by Adversarially Disentangled Audio-Visual Representation
Talking face generation aims to synthesize a sequence of face images that
correspond to a clip of speech. This is a challenging task because face
appearance variation and semantics of speech are coupled together in the subtle
movements of the talking face regions. Existing works either construct specific
face appearance model on specific subjects or model the transformation between
lip motion and speech. In this work, we integrate both aspects and enable
arbitrary-subject talking face generation by learning disentangled audio-visual
representation. We find that the talking face sequence is actually a
composition of both subject-related information and speech-related information.
These two spaces are then explicitly disentangled through a novel
associative-and-adversarial training process. This disentangled representation
has an advantage where both audio and video can serve as inputs for generation.
Extensive experiments show that the proposed approach generates realistic
talking face sequences on arbitrary subjects with much clearer lip motion
patterns than previous work. We also demonstrate the learned audio-visual
representation is extremely useful for the tasks of automatic lip reading and
audio-video retrieval.Comment: AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence (AAAI 2019) Oral
