• Abstract summary: Depression, a prominent contributor to global disability, affects a substantial portion of the population. Efforts to detect depression from social media texts have been prevalent, yet only a few works explored depression detection from user-generated video content. We propose a simple and flexible multi-modal temporal model capable of discerning non-verbal depression cues from diverse modalities in noisy, real-world videos.

• Abstract: Depression, a prominent contributor to global disability, affects a substantial portion of the population. Efforts to detect depression from social media texts have been prevalent, yet only a few works explored depression detection from user-generated video content. In this work, we address this research gap by proposing a simple and flexible multi-modal temporal model capable of discerning non-verbal depression cues from diverse modalities in noisy, real-world videos. We show that, for in-the-wild videos, using additional high-level non-verbal cues is crucial to achieving good performance, and we extracted and processed audio speech embeddings, face emotion embeddings, face, body and hand landmarks, and gaze and blinking information. Through extensive experiments, we show that our model achieves state-of-the-art results on three key benchmark datasets for depression detection from video by a substantial margin. Our code is publicly available on GitHub.

  The recent proliferation of hyper-realistic deepfake videos has drawn attention to the threat of audio and visual forgeries. Most previous work on detecting AI-generated fake videos only utilize visual modality or audio modality. We propose an Audio-Visual Transformer-based Ensemble Network (AVTENet) framework that considers both acoustic manipulation and visual manipulation.

  We propose a flexible time-enriched multimodal transformer architecture for detecting depression from social media posts. Our model operates directly at the user-level, and we enrich it with the relative time between posts by using time2vec positional embeddings. We show that our method, using EmoBERTa and CLIP embeddings, surpasses other methods on two multimodal datasets.

  This paper presents an efficient semantic pipeline to study depression severity in individuals based on their social media writings. We use test user sentences for producing semantic rankings over an index of representative training sentences corresponding to depressive symptoms and severity levels. We evaluate our methods on two Reddit-based benchmarks, achieving 30% improvement over state of the art in terms of measuring depression severity.

  The aim of this work is to propose a deepfake detector that can cope with the wide variety of manipulation methods and scenarios encountered in the real world. We leverage a contrastive learning paradigm to learn the moving-face and audio segment embeddings that are most discriminative for each identity. Our method can detect both single-modality (audio-only, video-only) and multi-modality (audio-video) attacks, and is robust to low-quality or corrupted videos.
