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.

arXiv:2607. 09417v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Ambivalence and hesitancy are subtle behavioral states that are expressed through a combination of verbal content, facial behavior, visual context, and acoustic cues.

arXiv:2604. 07282v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Automated face recognition has made rapid strides over the past decade due to the unprecedented rise of deep neural network (DNN) models that can be trained for domain-specific tasks.

arXiv:2607. 03581v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The widespread adoption of facial masks, accelerated by COVID-19 and mandated in security-sensitive settings, has exposed limitations of conventional face recognition systems.

arXiv:2608. 08521v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Face recognition systems face two distinct, commonly-separated failure modes: spoofing, where an impostor presents a photograph or video of an authorized user, and disguise, where a legitimate user is rejected because their appearance differs from their enrolled template due to accessories, facial hair, illumination, or pose.

arXiv:2607. 06254v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deepfake image detection is currently served by three fundamentally different paradigms: commercial APIs, zero-shot vision-language models (LLMs), and open-source detectors.

arXiv:2607. 21776v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Talking-face (TF) deepfake generation synthesizes photore- alistic facial video from a static source image and an au- dio signal, producing forgeries that current image-based detectors consistently fail to identify.
