arXiv:2608. 10442v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automatic stress detection from facial video offers a practical path to non-intrusive affect monitoring, yet existing video-based approaches commonly decompose full recordings into short temporal windows before classification.

The paper presents Test-Time Adaptation via Cache Personalization (TTA‑CaP), a gradient‑free, cache‑based method that personalizes vision‑language models for facial expression recognition in videos. TTA‑CaP uses three complementary caches—a personalized static cache, a positive target cache, and a negative target cache—controlled by a tri‑gate mechanism to prevent corruption and provide robust subject‑matched evidence. Experiments on BioVid, StressID, and BAH datasets show that TTA‑CaP outperforms state‑of‑the‑art test‑time adaptation methods while keeping computational and memory overhead low.
