Automatic affective recognition has been an important research topic in human computer interaction (HCI) area. With recent development of deep learning techniques and large scale in-the-wild annotated datasets, the facial emotion analysis is now aimed at challenges in the real world settings. In this paper, we introduce our submission to the 2nd Affective Behavior Analysis in-the-wild (ABAW2) Competition. In dealing with different emotion representations, including Categorical Emotions (CE), Action Units (AU), and Valence Arousal (VA), we propose a multi-task streaming network by a heuristic that the three representations are intrinsically associated with each other. Besides, we leverage an advanced facial expression embedding as prior knowledge, which is capable of capturing identity-invariant expression features while preserving the expression similarities, to aid the down-streaming recognition tasks. The extensive quantitative evaluations as well as ablation studies on the Aff-Wild2 dataset prove the effectiveness of our proposed prior aided streaming network approach.

Human affective recognition is an important factor in human-computer interaction. However, the method development with in-the-wild data is not yet accurate enough for practical usage. In this paper, we introduce the affective recognition method focus
ing on valence-arousal (VA) and expression (EXP) that was submitted to the Affective Behavior Analysis in-the-wild (ABAW) 2020 Contest. Since we considered that affective behaviors have many observable features that have their own time frames, we introduced multiple optimized time windows (short-term, middle-term, and long-term) into our analyzing framework for extracting feature parameters from video data. Moreover, multiple modality data are used, including action units, head poses, gaze, posture, and ResNet 50 or Efficient NET features, and are optimized during the extraction of these features. Then, we generated affective recognition models for each time window and ensembled these models together. Also, we fussed the valence, arousal, and expression models together to enable the multi-task learning, considering the fact that the basic psychological states behind facial expressions are closely related to each another. In the validation set, our model achieved a valence-arousal score of 0.498 and a facial expression score of 0.471. These verification results reveal that our proposed framework can improve estimation accuracy and robustness effectively.
Affective Behavior Analysis is an important part in human-computer interaction. Existing multi-task affective behavior recognition methods suffer from the problem of incomplete labeled datasets. To tackle this problem, this paper presents a semi-supe
rvised model with a mean teacher framework to leverage additional unlabeled data. To be specific, a multi-task model is proposed to learn three different kinds of facial affective representations simultaneously. After that, the proposed model is assigned to be student and teacher networks. When training with unlabeled data, the teacher network is employed to predict pseudo labels for student network training, which allows it to learn from unlabeled data. Experimental results showed that our proposed method achieved much better performance than baseline model and ranked 4th in both competition track 1 and track 2, and 6th in track 3, which verifies that the proposed network can effectively learn from incomplete datasets.
Video affective understanding, which aims to predict the evoked expressions by the video content, is desired for video creation and recommendation. In the recent EEV challenge, a dense affective understanding task is proposed and requires frame-level
affective prediction. In this paper, we propose a multi-granularity network with modal attention (MGN-MA), which employs multi-granularity features for better description of the target frame. Specifically, the multi-granularity features could be divided into frame-level, clips-level and video-level features, which corresponds to visual-salient content, semantic-context and video theme information. Then the modal attention fusion module is designed to fuse the multi-granularity features and emphasize more affection-relevant modals. Finally, the fused feature is fed into a Mixtures Of Experts (MOE) classifier to predict the expressions. Further employing model-ensemble post-processing, the proposed method achieves the correlation score of 0.02292 in the EEV challenge.
Person re-identification (ReID) focuses on identifying people across different scenes in video surveillance, which is usually formulated as a binary classification task or a ranking task in current person ReID approaches. In this paper, we take both
tasks into account and propose a multi-task deep network (MTDnet) that makes use of their own advantages and jointly optimize the two tasks simultaneously for person ReID. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to integrate both tasks in one network to solve the person ReID. We show that our proposed architecture significantly boosts the performance. Furthermore, deep architecture in general requires a sufficient dataset for training, which is usually not met in person ReID. To cope with this situation, we further extend the MTDnet and propose a cross-domain architecture that is capable of using an auxiliary set to assist training on small target sets. In the experiments, our approach outperforms most of existing person ReID algorithms on representative datasets including CUHK03, CUHK01, VIPeR, iLIDS and PRID2011, which clearly demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
Multi-task learning (MTL) is an efficient way to improve the performance of related tasks by sharing knowledge. However, most existing MTL networks run on a single end and are not suitable for collaborative intelligence (CI) scenarios. In this work,
we propose an MTL network with a deep joint source-channel coding (JSCC) framework, which allows operating under CI scenarios. We first propose a feature fusion based MTL network (FFMNet) for joint object detection and semantic segmentation. Compared with other MTL networks, FFMNet gets higher performance with fewer parameters. Then FFMNet is split into two parts, which run on a mobile device and an edge server respectively. The feature generated by the mobile device is transmitted through the wireless channel to the edge server. To reduce the transmission overhead of the intermediate feature, a deep JSCC network is designed. By combining two networks together, the whole model achieves 512 times compression for the intermediate feature and a performance loss within 2% on both tasks. At last, by training with noise, the FFMNet with JSCC is robust to various channel conditions and outperforms the separate source and channel coding scheme.
