Emotional Mimicry Intensity (EMI) estimation plays a pivotal role in understanding human social behavior and advancing human-computer interaction. The core challenges lie in dynamic correlation modeling and robust fusion of multimodal…
Facial micro-expressions indicate brief and subtle facial movements that appear during emotional communication. In comparison to macro-expressions, micro-expressions are more challenging to be analyzed due to the short span of time and the…
Emotion recognition from facial videos enables non-contact inference of human emotional states. Although facial expressions are widely used cues, they cannot fully reflect intrinsic affective states. Remote photoplethysmography (rPPG)…
Dynamic facial expression recognition has many useful applications in social networks, multimedia content analysis, security systems and others. This challenging process must be done under recurrent problems of image illumination and low…
In Speech Emotion Recognition (SER), textual data is often used alongside audio signals to address their inherent variability. However, the reliance on human annotated text in most research hinders the development of practical SER systems.…
Facial expression manipulation aims at editing facial expression with a given condition. Previous methods edit an input image under the guidance of a discrete emotion label or absolute condition (e.g., facial action units) to possess the…
Humans can effortlessly describe what they see, yet establishing a shared representational format between vision and language remains a significant challenge. Emerging evidence suggests that human brain representations in both vision and…
While several approaches to face emotion recognition task are proposed in literature, none of them reports on power consumption nor inference time required to run the system in an embedded environment. Without adequate knowledge about these…
Facial Expression Recognition (FER) is an important task in computer vision and has wide applications in human-computer interaction, intelligent security, emotion analysis, and other fields. However, the limited size of FER datasets limits…
Personality computing and affective computing, where the recognition of personality traits is essential, have gained increasing interest and attention in many research areas recently. We propose a novel approach to recognize the Big Five…
