Summary: This article addresses two important issues in automatic personality analysis systems: the use of short video segments or single frames for inferring personality traits, and the lack of methods for encoding person-specific facial dynamics. To tackle these issues, the paper proposes a novel Rank Loss for self-supervised learning of facial dynamics and a method to represent person-specific dynamics. The approach achieves promising results in personality estimation and shows the importance of the tasks performed by the subject in the video and the use of multi-scale dynamics.

Summary: MASs are distributed systems with multiple intelligent agents, and formation control is a significant technique within MASs. Despite widespread use in various fields, there has been limited research on security issues related to formation control in MASs. This study aims to investigate potential security problems in formation control on a multirobot system, proposing different levels of control attacks and demonstrating how cyberattacks can disrupt physical movements of robots. Experimental results show that these attacks can easily interrupt formation movements and even cause irreversible losses in a multirobot system.
