Conventional face recognition relies on static appearance cues and degrades in unconstrained settings with expression variation, occlusion, and poor lighting. We hypothesize that audiovisual expression dynamics carry identity-discriminative information complementary to static appearance, and that extracting this signal requires multimodal representations robust to the variable input quality of in-the-wild video.

The paper introduces a disagreement‑aware dynamic facial expression recognition framework that directly learns from raw annotator vote vectors using a Dirichlet‑Multinomial likelihood, preserving both predictive mean and scale‑sensitive supervision. It adds an ambiguity head to estimate annotation entropy for unseen clips and employs a Chow‑style reject rule that integrates ambiguity, vacuity, temporal instability, and input quality for selective prediction. On the DFEW benchmark, the method maintains recognition accuracy while cutting expected calibration error by 30 % and area‑under‑risk‑curve by 15 %, with predicted ambiguity correlating 0.52 (Spearman) with true annotation entropy, and these gains transfer to FERV39k and hold under identity‑ and movie‑disjoint splits.
