Consistent movement of viewers' facial keypoints while watching emotionally evocative videos. by Shivansh Chandra Tripathi, Rahul Garg

“…This is evidenced in DISFA dataset where the time-series of Average t-statistic has a high correlation (R2 = 0.78) with a metric called AU consistency, which directly measures facial muscle movement through FACS coding of video frames. The simplicity of recording facial expressions with the automated Average t-statistic expands the applications of CRM such as measuring engagement in online learning, customer interactions, etc., and diagnosing outliers in healthcare conditions like stroke, autism, depression, etc. …”

A global review of the impact on women from men’s alcohol drinking: the need for responding with a gendered lens by Ingrid M. Wilson, Bree Willoughby, Amany Tanyos, Kathryn Graham, Mary Walker, Anne-Marie Laslett, Leane Ramsoomar

“…The harms in the studies were collated and organised under three main themes: (i) harmful alcohol-related actions by men (e.g. violence, sexual coercion, economic abuse), (ii) impact on women (e.g. physical and mental health harm, relationship functioning, social harm), and (iii) how partner alcohol use was framed by women in the studies. Conclusion Men’s drinking results in a multitude of direct, indirect and hidden harms to women that are cumulative, intersecting and entrench women’s disempowerment. …”

The Eurasian Space in Chinese Official and Academic Discourses by I. E. Denisov, I. A. Safranchuk

“…The 2015 document, "Vision and Actions on Jointly Building Silk Road Economic Belt and 21st-Century Maritime Silk Road," illustrates the initiative's extensive and vague geographical scope, indicating that China did not initially aim for a broad Eurasian strategy.By employing Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), we uncover how China's official rhetoric strategically frames BRI. The analysis reveals that Chinese discourse emphasizes bilateral rather than multilateral engagements within Eurasia, reflecting a «point-to-point» rather than a networked approach. …”
