Traits Run Deeper introduces a personality assessment framework that tailors multimodal fusion to each trait dimension. It comprises a Multimodal Foundation Representation module that uses psychology-informed semantic templates, a Trait-Specific Modality Fusion module that asymmetrically fuses modalities to reduce cross‑modal interference, and a Distribution‑Calibrated Personality Regression module that corrects label imbalance. The approach achieves a ~25% reduction in mean squared error on the AVI Challenge 2026 validation set and wins the Personality Assessment Track.

Personality recognition in asynchronous video interviews (AVIs) has become increasingly important due to their widespread adoption in modern recruitment. Existing approaches often rely on large language models (LLMs) to analyze textual responses of interviewees in AVI.
arXiv:2606. 11930v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Predicting psychological traits from asynchronous video interviews (AVIs) is a challenging multimodal learning problem because labeled datasets are limited while each response contains high-dimensional visual, acoustic, and verbal signals.
