At the heart of this domain is the nuanced study of facial expressions, particularly micro-expressions, which are fleeting and subtle in nature, often lasting no more than half a second and characterized by minimal but significant facial movements. This research talk will delve into the intricacies of deciphering facial expressions, highlighting the complexities associated with micro-expressions due to their ephemeral nature and the low-amplitude facial cues they present. We will present our latest findings and methodologies that aim to enhance the accuracy and sensitivity of expression recognition technologies.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><b><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> </span></font></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><b><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">Bio:</span></font></b><font face="Calibri"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> Wen-Huang Cheng is a University Distinguished Chair Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering at National Taiwan University and a Visiting Professor at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST).
