arXiv:2509. 16727v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Automated pain assessment from facial expressions is crucial for non-communicative patient.
arXiv:2608. 11050v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep learning systems perform mainly within the 2D for a single image domain and take the face as a single-dimension representation, losing sight of the 3D anatomy of sheep and cross-landmark spatial relationships that are intrinsic to the clinically proven Sheep Pain Facial Expression Scale (SPFES).
Automatic pain assessment from facial video remains challenging due to the spatial heterogeneity of pain-related facial cues. This study proposes ReFace, a spatial reorganization pipeline that divides facial input into four spatial quadrants before tokenization, rather than processing the entire face as a single region.
Automatic pain localization, which involves identifying the anatomical origin of pain from peripheral physiological signals without patient self-report, is a clinically critical but largely unaddressed problem, particularly for non-verbal patients. This paper presents a systematic comparison of classical feature engineering and deep sequence learning for subject-independent three-class pain localization using the AI4Pain 2026 Challenge dataset, which comprises four synchronously recorded wearable modalities: electrodermal activity, blood volume pulse, respiration, and peripheral oxygen saturation recorded from 65 participants under controlled TENS-induced pain.
arXiv:2607. 16287v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) have enabled photorealistic novel-view synthesis of 3D scenes and, in the facial domain, have been extended to reconstruct and animate 3D face models from a small number of images.
arXiv:2606. 23705v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Pain is assessed differently by patients, nurses, and clinicians, yet most computational approaches assume a single ground-truth label - effectively ignoring who is doing the rating.
arXiv:2608. 14662v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Accurate recognition of pain using physiological signals remains a challenging problem due to pain's subjective nature and high inter-individual variability.
arXiv:2608. 14130v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Computer vision models for generated facial content, such as face editing and privacy protection, increasingly affect people, requiring similarity metrics that serve as faithful proxies for human perception.
arXiv:2607. 08533v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Understanding perceptual differences between autistic and neurotypical adults requires behavioral assays that are sensitive, reliable, and mechanistically informative.
arXiv:2607. 05585v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: FaceMesh2HPO is a framework for classifying facial phenotypic descriptors aligned with the Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) to support clinical diagnosis.
arXiv:2606. 02301v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Chronic pain diminishes quality of life by decreasing functional ability, yet objectively measuring this functional impact remains challenging in real-world settings.
Color Fundus Photography (CFP) is a primary non-invasive imaging modality for large-scale screening of ophthalmic and systemic diseases. Existing surveys mainly summarize task-specific algorithms, datasets, or preprocessing techniques independently, lacking a unified perspective on their co-evolution with modern artificial intelligence.
Current identity customized video generation methodologies are predominantly limited to single-identity scenarios, as the lack of explicit identity separation mechanisms often leads to identity confusion in multi-identity settings. Existing multi-identity approaches, which directly extend single-identity frameworks by concatenating face images as input conditions, frequently result in unnatural facial expressions and motions, manifesting as the "copy-paste" phenomenon.
