This paper addresses the problem of Facial Expression Recognition (FER), focusing on unobvious facial movements. Traditional methods often cause overfitting problems or incomplete information due to insufficient data and manual selection of features. Instead, our proposed network, which is called the Multi-features Cooperative Deep Convolutional Network (MC-DCN), maintains focus on the overall feature of the face and the trend of key parts. The processing of video data is the first stage. The method of ensemble of regression trees (ERT) is used to obtain the overall contour of the face. Then, the attention model is used to pick up the parts of face that are more susceptible to expressions. Under the combined effect of these two methods, the image which can be called a local feature map is obtained. After that, the video data are sent to MC-DCN, containing parallel sub-networks. While the overall spatiotemporal characteristics of facial expressions are obtained through the sequence of images, the selection of keys parts can better learn the changes in facial expressions brought about by subtle facial movements. By combining local features and global features, the proposed method can acquire more information, leading to better performance. The experimental results show that MC-DCN can achieve recognition rates of 95%, 78.6% and 78.3% on the three datasets SAVEE, MMI, and edited GEMEP, respectively.

In the field of meteorology, radiosonde data and observation data are critical for analyzing regional meteorological characteristics. Because of the high false alarm rate, severe convection forecasting is still challenging. In addition, the existing methods are difficult to use to capture the interaction of meteorological factors at the same time. In this research, a cascade of extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) for feature transformation and a factorization machine (FM) for second-order feature interaction to capture the nonlinear interaction—XGB+FM—is proposed. An attention-based bidirectional long short-term memory (Att-Bi-LSTM) network is proposed to impute the missing data of meteorological observation stations. The problem of class imbalance is resolved by the support vector machines–synthetic minority oversampling technique (SVM-SMOTE), in which two oversampling strategies based on the support vector discrimination mechanism are proposed. It is proven that the method is effective, and the threat score (TS) is 7.27~14.28% higher than other methods. Moreover, we propose the meteorological factor selection method based on XGB+FM and improve the forecast accuracy, which is one of our contributions, as well as the forecast system.
