A Fatigue Driving Detection Algorithm Based on Facial Motion Information Entropy by Feng You, Yunbo Gong, Haiqing Tu, Jianzhong Liang, Haiwei Wang

“…First, we introduce an improved YOLOv3-tiny convolutional neural network to capture the facial regions under complex driving conditions, eliminating the inaccuracy and affections caused by artificial feature extraction. Second, we construct a geometric area called Face Feature Triangle (FFT) based on the application of the Dlib toolkit as well as the landmarks and the coordinates of the facial regions; then we create a Face Feature Vector (FFV), which contains all the information of the area and centroid of each FFT. …”

From speech acts to communicative acts: social network debates about sexual consent by Elisabeth Torras-Gómez, Elisabeth Torras-Gómez, Arja Krauchenberg, Victor Petuya, Rebeca Marcos, Olga Serradell, Marta Soler-Gallart

“…Although some research has been conducted on citizens’ social media debates on consent, how such debates include the concept of communicative acts to discuss it has not been analyzed yetMethods55 gender-related Instagram and Twitter (now known as X) posts—published and extracted over the course of 14 days—were analyzed.ResultsFindings reveal that most posts refer to Power Communicative Acts as a hindrance for consent due to hierarchical power imbalances or to coercion, and called for the need to establish elements of Dialogic Communicative Acts to achieve consent and construct more egalitarian environments. Finally, most posts that considered ethics spoke about the need for perpetrators to be held accountable or offered similar takes on consequentialism.DiscussionThese findings help illustrate how several social media debates about consent successfully fall into the Communicative Acts framework.…”
