UNWIND: Any-Length Facial Video for Stress Detection without Temporal Windowing

Read the original on arXiv AI →

UNWIND is a facial‑video framework that detects stress by treating an entire recording as a single input, avoiding the need for temporal windowing or segmentation. It folds the video’s temporal dimension into the channel dimension of a 2‑D spatial representation and processes it with an asymmetric‑attention architecture. Experiments on a 58‑subject stress dataset show that using all 3,600 frames (stride τ = 1) yields a 69.73 % accuracy, comparable to the best 70.02 % accuracy at τ = 15, while computational cost varies from 12.48 to 348.78 GFLOPs.

FUSE: Frame-Unified Stress Estimation from Facial Video

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.

Moment-Video: Diagnosing Temporal Fidelity of Video MLLMs on Momentary Visual Events

arXiv:2606. 02522v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have made rapid progress on general and long-form video understanding, yet their ability to preserve brief answer-critical visual evidence remains underexplored.

Test-Time Adaptation via Cache Personalization for Facial Expression Recognition in Videos

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.
