PC-MNet: Dual-Level Congruity Modeling for Multimodal Sarcasm Detection via Polarity-Modulated Attention

Multimodal sarcasm detection, which aims to precisely identify pragmatic incongruities between literal text and nonverbal cues, has gained substantial attention in multimodal understanding. Recent advancements have predominantly relied on naïve similarity-based attention mechanisms and uniform late fusion strategies.Furthermore, given that functional entanglement restricts traditional late fusions, we incorporate a scalar congruity routing mechanism and a prior-guided contextual graph. This mechanism anchors a generalized incongruity manifold through a two-stage asymmetric optimization driven by inconsistency-aware contrastive learning, selectively fusing only the most discriminative multi-granularity evidence. Extensive experiments on the \texttt{MUStARD} benchmark and its spurious-correlation-mitigated balanced datasets demonstrate that our approach achieves new state-of-the-art performance, surpassing the strongest multimodal baseline by a substantial 3.14\% improvement in Macro-F1. By architecturally isolating atomic, composition, and contextual conflicts. This work provides a robust, decoupled paradigm for modeling subtle pragmatic incongruities in human communication.

Seeking Salient Facial Regions for Cross-Database Micro-Expression Recognition

Cross-Database Micro-Expression Recognition (CDMER) aims to develop the Micro-Expression Recognition (MER) methods with strong domain adaptability, i.e., the ability to recognize the Micro-Expressions (MEs) of different subjects captured by different imaging devices in different scenes. The development of CDMER is faced with two key problems: 1) the severe feature distribution gap between the source and target databases; 2) the feature representation bottleneck of ME such local and subtle facial expressions. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a novel Transfer Group Sparse Regression method, namely TGSR, which aims to 1) optimize the measurement and better alleviate the difference between the source and target databases, and 2) highlight the valid facial regions to enhance extracted features, by the operation of selecting the group features from the raw face feature, where each region is associated with a group of raw face feature, i.e., the salient facial region selection. Compared with previous transfer group sparse methods, our proposed TGSR has the ability to select the salient facial regions, which is effective in alleviating the aforementioned problems for better performance and reducing the computational cost at the same time. We use two public ME databases, i.e., CASME II and SMIC, to evaluate our proposed TGSR method. Experimental results show that our proposed TGSR learns the discriminative and explicable regions, and outperforms most state-of-the-art subspace-learning-based domain-adaptive methods for CDMER.

A Novel Transferability Attention Neural Network Model for EEG Emotion Recognition

The existed methods for electroencephalograph (EEG) emotion recognition always train the models based on all the EEG samples indistinguishably. However, some of the source (training) samples may lead to a negative influence because they are significant dissimilar with the target (test) samples. So it is necessary to give more attention to the EEG samples with strong transferability rather than forcefully training a classification model by all the samples. Furthermore, for an EEG sample, from the aspect of neuroscience, not all the brain regions of an EEG sample contains emotional information that can transferred to the test data effectively. Even some brain region data will make strong negative effect for learning the emotional classification model. Considering these two issues, in this paper, we propose a transferable attention neural network (TANN) for EEG emotion recognition, which learns the emotional discriminative information by highlighting the transferable EEG brain regions data and samples adaptively through local and global attention mechanism. This can be implemented by measuring the outputs of multiple brain-region-level discriminators and one single sample-level discriminator. We conduct the extensive experiments on three public EEG emotional datasets. The results validate that the proposed model achieves the state-of-the-art performance.

DFEW: A Large-Scale Database for Recognizing Dynamic Facial Expressions in the Wild

Recently, facial expression recognition (FER) in the wild has gained a lot of researchers' attention because it is a valuable topic to enable the FER techniques to move from the laboratory to the real applications. In this paper, we focus on this challenging but interesting topic and make contributions from three aspects. First, we present a new large-scale 'in-the-wild' dynamic facial expression database, DFEW (Dynamic Facial Expression in the Wild), consisting of over 16,000 video clips from thousands of movies. These video clips contain various challenging interferences in practical scenarios such as extreme illumination, occlusions, and capricious pose changes. Second, we propose a novel method called Expression-Clustered Spatiotemporal Feature Learning (EC-STFL) framework to deal with dynamic FER in the wild. Third, we conduct extensive benchmark experiments on DFEW using a lot of spatiotemporal deep feature learning methods as well as our proposed EC-STFL. Experimental results show that DFEW is a well-designed and challenging database, and the proposed EC-STFL can promisingly improve the performance of existing spatiotemporal deep neural networks in coping with the problem of dynamic FER in the wild. Our DFEW database is publicly available and can be freely downloaded from https://dfew-dataset.github.io/.

Walk-Steered Convolution for Graph Classification

Graph classification is a fundamental but challenging issue for numerous real-world applications. Despite recent great progress in image/video classification, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) cannot yet cater to graphs well because of graphical non-Euclidean topology. In this work, we propose a walk-steered convolutional (WSC) network to assemble the essential success of standard convolutional neural networks as well as the powerful representation ability of random walk. Instead of deterministic neighbor searching used in previous graphical CNNs, we construct multi-scale walk fields (a.k.a. local receptive fields) with random walk paths to depict subgraph structures and advocate graph scalability. To express the internal variations of a walk field, Gaussian mixture models are introduced to encode principal components of walk paths therein. As an analogy to a standard convolution kernel on image, Gaussian models implicitly coordinate those unordered vertices/nodes and edges in a local receptive field after projecting to the gradient space of Gaussian parameters. We further stack graph coarsening upon Gaussian encoding by using dynamic clustering, such that high-level semantics of graph can be well learned like the conventional pooling on image. The experimental results on several public datasets demonstrate the superiority of our proposed WSC method over many state-of-the-arts for graph classification.

Recurrent Regression for Face Recognition

To address the sequential changes of images including poses, in this paper we propose a recurrent regression neural network(RRNN) framework to unify two classic tasks of cross-pose face recognition on still images and video-based face recognition. To imitate the changes of images, we explicitly construct the potential dependencies of sequential images so as to regularize the final learning model. By performing progressive transforms for sequentially adjacent images, RRNN can adaptively memorize and forget the information that benefits for the final classification. For face recognition of still images, given any one image with any one pose, we recurrently predict the images with its sequential poses to expect to capture some useful information of others poses. For video-based face recognition, the recurrent regression takes one entire sequence rather than one image as its input. We verify RRNN in static face dataset MultiPIE and face video dataset YouTube Celebrities(YTC). The comprehensive experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed RRNN method.
