RESUMO
With the ongoing fifth-generation cellular network (5G) deployment, electromagnetic field exposure has become a critical concern. However, measurements are scarce, and accurate electromagnetic field reconstruction in a geographic region remains challenging. This work proposes a conditional generative adversarial network to address this issue. The main objective is to reconstruct the electromagnetic field exposure map accurately according to the environment's topology from a few sensors located in an outdoor urban environment. The model is trained to learn and estimate the propagation characteristics of the electromagnetic field according to the topology of a given environment. In addition, the conditional generative adversarial network-based electromagnetic field mapping is compared with simple kriging. Results show that the proposed method produces accurate estimates and is a promising solution for exposure map reconstruction.

Video facial expression recognition is useful for many applications and received much interest lately. Although some methods give good results in controlled environments (no occlusion), recognition in the presence of partial facial occlusion remains a challenging task. To handle facial occlusions, methods based on the reconstruction of the occluded part of the face have been proposed. These methods are mainly based on the texture or the geometry of the face. However, the similarity of the face movement between different persons doing the same expression seems to be a real asset for the reconstruction. In this paper we exploit this asset and propose a new method based on an auto-encoder with skip connections to reconstruct the occluded part of the face in the optical flow domain. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work that directly reconstructs the movement for facial expression recognition. We validated our approach in the controlled CK+ datasets on which different occlusions were generated. Our experiments show that the proposed method reduces the gap in the recognition accuracy between occluded and unoccluded situations. We also compare our approach with existing state-of-the-art approaches. In order to lay the basis of a reproducible and fair comparison in the future, we also propose a new experimental protocol that includes occlusion generation and reconstruction evaluation.
