Duration Monday, August 29th, 2022 - Saturday, September 3rd, 2022 \ --- \ # 2. Learning Record ## 2. 1 Do Experiments Two days after I started to do the experiment, I suddenly found that the code repository (BDCNN) I was working in is for the paper \[1\] which is about micro-expression recognition, not micro-expression spotting. Then I switched to SoftNet-SpotME which is for paper \[2\]. The first step is face cropping which cost four days to finish in the SAMM dataset and two days in the CAS(ME)^2 dataset, which really shocked me a lot. The algorithm is not sophisticated. The Python process cost only about 5% of the CPU’s computing ability. It was just because the dataset has a large number of images. During my experiments, the C disk only left about one G of storage. Holy shit! \ --- \ # 3. Feeling ## 3. 2 Happy After months of researching, I finally found the code that could run successfully. \ --- \ # 4. References \[1\]B. Chen, K.-H. Liu, Y. Xu, Q.-Q.
