Exploring Large-scale Unlabeled Faces to Enhance Facial Expression RecognitionJun Yu, Zhongpeng Cai, Renda Li et al.
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 the generalization ability of expression recognition models, resulting in ineffective model performance. To address this problem, we propose a semi-supervised learning framework that utilizes unlabeled face data to train expression recognition models effectively. Our method uses a dynamic threshold module (\textbf{DTM}) that can adaptively adjust the confidence threshold to fully utilize the face recognition (FR) data to generate pseudo-labels, thus improving the model's ability to model facial expressions. In the ABAW5 EXPR task, our method achieved excellent results on the official validation set.

A Dual Branch Network for Emotional Reaction Intensity EstimationJun Yu, Jichao Zhu, Wangyuan Zhu et al.
Emotional Reaction Intensity(ERI) estimation is an important task in multimodal scenarios, and has fundamental applications in medicine, safe driving and other fields. In this paper, we propose a solution to the ERI challenge of the fifth Affective Behavior Analysis in-the-wild(ABAW), a dual-branch based multi-output regression model. The spatial attention is used to better extract visual features, and the Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients technology extracts acoustic features, and a method named modality dropout is added to fusion multimodal features. Our method achieves excellent results on the official validation set.

Compound Expression Recognition via Multi Model EnsembleJun Yu, Jichao Zhu, Wangyuan Zhu
Compound Expression Recognition (CER) plays a crucial role in interpersonal interactions. Due to the existence of Compound Expressions , human emotional expressions are complex, requiring consideration of both local and global facial expressions to make judgments. In this paper, to address this issue, we propose a solution based on ensemble learning methods for Compound Expression Recognition. Specifically, our task is classification, where we train three expression classification models based on convolutional networks, Vision Transformers, and multi-scale local attention networks. Then, through model ensemble using late fusion, we merge the outputs of multiple models to predict the final result. Our method achieves high accuracy on RAF-DB and is able to recognize expressions through zero-shot on certain portions of C-EXPR-DB.
