Affective Processes: Stochastic Modelling of Temporal Context for Emotion and Facial Expression Recognition

CVPR 2021poster

Temporal context is key to the recognition of expressions of emotion. Existing methods, that rely on recurrent or self-attention models to enforce temporal consistency, work on the feature level, ignoring the task-specific temporal dependencies, and fail to model context uncertainty. To alleviate th…

Learning to Transfer: Transferring Latent Task Structures and Its Application to Person-Specific Facial Action Unit Detection

ICCV 2015poster

In this article we explore the problem of constructing person-specific models for the detection of facial Action Units (AUs), addressing the problem from the point of view of Transfer Learning and Multi-Task Learning. Our starting point is the fact that some expressions, such as smiles, are very eas…

TRIC-track: Tracking by Regression With Incrementally Learned Cascades

ICCV 2015poster

This paper proposes a novel approach to part-based tracking by replacing local matching of an appearance model by direct prediction of the displacement between local image patches and part locations. We propose to use cascaded regression with incremental learning to track generic objects without any…
