• Abstract summary: In micro-expression, facial movement is transient and sparsely localized through time. We propose a novel end-to-end deep learning architecture, referred to as adaptive key-frame mining network (AKMNet) AKMNet is able to learn discriminative-temporal representation by combining spatial features of self-learned local key frames and their global-temporal dynamics.

• Abstract: As a spontaneous expression of emotion on face, micro-expression reveals the underlying emotion that cannot be controlled by human. In micro-expression, facial movement is transient and sparsely localized through time. However, the existing representation based on various deep learning techniques learned from a full video clip is usually redundant. In addition, methods utilizing the single apex frame of each video clip require expert annotations and sacrifice the temporal dynamics. To simultaneously localize and recognize such fleeting facial movements, we propose a novel end-to-end deep learning architecture, referred to as adaptive key-frame mining network (AKMNet). Operating on the video clip of micro-expression, AKMNet is able to learn discriminative spatio-temporal representation by combining spatial features of self-learned local key frames and their global-temporal dynamics. Theoretical analysis and empirical evaluation show that the proposed approach improved recognition accuracy in comparison with state-of-the-art methods on multiple benchmark datasets.

  The analysis of micro-expressions generally involves two main tasks: spotting micro-expression intervals in long videos and recognizing the emotions associated with these intervals. Previous deep learning methods have primarily relied on classification networks utilizing sliding windows. We present a novel temporal state transition architecture grounded in the state space model, which replaces conventional window-level classification with video-level regression.

  We propose a time-sensitive Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM) aimed at directing attention to the local facial micro-expression dynamics. Our model incorporates two key architectural contributions: (1) a global-local attention visual encoder that integrates global frame-level timestamp-bound image features with local facial features of temporal dynamics of micro-expressions; and (2) an utterance-aware video Q-Former that captures multi-scale and contextual dependencies by generating visual token sequences for each utterance segment and for the entire video then combining them.
