We address the Ambivalence/Hesitancy (A/H) Video Recognition Challenge at the 10th ABAW Competition (CVPR 2026). We propose a divergence-based multimodal fusion that explicitly measures cross-modal conflict between visual, audio, and…

Ambivalence/hesitancy recognition in unconstrained videos is a challenging problem due to the subtle, multimodal, and context-dependent nature of this behavioral state. In this paper, a multimodal approach for video-level…

Recognizing complex behavioral states such as Ambivalence and Hesitancy (A/H) in naturalistic video settings remains a significant challenge in affective computing. Unlike basic facial expressions, A/H manifests as subtle, multimodal…

Using behavioural science, health interventions focus on behaviour change by providing a framework to help patients acquire and maintain healthy habits that improve medical outcomes. In-person interventions are costly and difficult to…

Multi-modal emotion recognition in conversations is a challenging problem due to the complex and complementary interactions between different modalities. Audio and textual cues are particularly important for understanding emotions from a…

Emotion recognition in videos is a pivotal task in affective computing, where identifying subtle psychological states such as Ambivalence and Hesitancy holds significant value for behavioral intervention and digital health. Ambivalence and…

During collaborative learning, confusion and conflict emerge naturally. However, persistent confusion or conflict have the potential to generate frustration and significantly impede learners' performance. Early automatic detection of…

AI models are increasingly required to be multimodal, integrating disparate input streams into a coherent state representation on which subsequent behaviors and actions can be based. This paper seeks to understand how such models behave…

Multimodal models play a key role in empathy detection, but their performance can suffer when modalities provide conflicting cues. To understand these failures, we examine cases where unimodal and multimodal predictions diverge. Using…

With the rapid growth in deepfake video content, we require improved and generalizable methods to detect them. Most existing detection methods either use uni-modal cues or rely on supervised training to capture the dissonance between the…

Mental disorders are among the foremost contributors to the global healthcare challenge. Research indicates that timely diagnosis and intervention are vital in treating various mental disorders. However, the early somatization symptoms of…

Multimodal AI models are increasingly used in fields like healthcare, finance, and autonomous driving, where information is drawn from multiple sources or modalities such as images, texts, audios, videos. However, effectively managing…

Multimodal emotion recognition is crucial for future human-computer interaction. However, accurate emotion recognition still faces significant challenges due to differences between different modalities and the difficulty of characterizing…

We used two multimodal models for continuous valence-arousal recognition using visual, audio, and linguistic information. The first model is the same as we used in ABAW2 and ABAW3, which employs the leader-follower attention. The second…

This article presents our results for the eighth Affective Behavior Analysis in-the-Wild (ABAW) competition. We combine facial emotional descriptors extracted by pre-trained models, namely, our EmotiEffLib library, with acoustic features…

Multimodal emotion recognition (MER) aims to infer human affect by jointly modeling audio and visual cues; however, existing approaches often struggle with temporal misalignment, weakly discriminative feature representations, and suboptimal…

Human affective behavior analysis has received much attention in human-computer interaction (HCI). In this paper, we introduce our submission to the CVPR 2022 Competition on Affective Behavior Analysis in-the-wild (ABAW). To fully exploit…

Humans perceive the world by concurrently processing and fusing high-dimensional inputs from multiple modalities such as vision and audio. Machine perception models, in stark contrast, are typically modality-specific and optimised for…

Emotion recognition in real-world environments is hindered by partial occlusions, missing modalities, and severe class imbalance. To address these issues, particularly for the Affective Behavior Analysis in-the-wild (ABAW) Expression…

Fusing multiple modalities has proven effective for multimodal information processing. However, the incongruity between modalities poses a challenge for multimodal fusion, especially in affect recognition. In this study, we first analyze…
