Existing 3D facial emotion modeling have been constrained by limited emotion classes and insufficient datasets. This paper introduces "Emo3D", an extensive "Text-Image-Expression dataset" spanning a wide spectrum of human emotions, each paired with images and 3D blendshapes. Leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs), we generate a diverse array of textual descriptions, facilitating the capture of a broad spectrum of emotional expressions. Using this unique dataset, we conduct a comprehensive evaluation of language-based models' fine-tuning and vision-language models like Contranstive Language Image Pretraining (CLIP) for 3D facial expression synthesis. We also introduce a new evaluation metric for this task to more directly measure the conveyed emotion. Our new evaluation metric, Emo3D, demonstrates its superiority over Mean Squared Error (MSE) metrics in assessing visual-text alignment and semantic richness in 3D facial expressions associated with human emotions. "Emo3D" has great applications in animation design, virtual reality, and emotional human-computer interaction.

In this paper, a generalization of deep learning-aided joint source channel coding (Deep-JSCC) approach to secure communications is studied. We propose an end-to-end (E2E) learning-based approach for secure communication against multiple eavesdroppers over complex-valued fading channels. Both scenarios of colluding and non-colluding eavesdroppers are studied. For the colluding strategy, eavesdroppers share their logits to collaboratively infer private attributes based on ensemble learning method, while for the non-colluding setup they act alone. The goal is to prevent eavesdroppers from inferring private (sensitive) information about the transmitted images, while delivering the images to a legitimate receiver with minimum distortion. By generalizing the ideas of privacy funnel and wiretap channel coding, the trade-off between the image recovery at the legitimate node and the information leakage to the eavesdroppers is characterized. To solve this secrecy funnel framework, we implement deep neural networks (DNNs) to realize a data-driven secure communication scheme, without relying on a specific data distribution. Simulations over CIFAR-10 dataset verifies the secrecy-utility trade-off. Adversarial accuracy of eavesdroppers are also studied over Rayleigh fading, Nakagami-m, and AWGN channels to verify the generalization of the proposed scheme. Our experiments show that employing the proposed secure neural encoding can decrease the adversarial accuracy by 28%.
