Task-Specific Feature Fusion Method for Multi-Task Affective Behavior Analysis
The 11th Affective Behavior Analysis in-the-wild (ABAW11) Multi-Task Learning Challenge requires a unified system to predict valence-arousal, categorical expressions, and facial action units from the official s-Aff-Wild2 images. Although these tasks are naturally related through facial behavior, our validation experiments show that they benefit from different visual features, temporal processing strategies, fusion mechanisms, and calibration procedures. In this paper, we study task-adaptive feature fusion for ABAW11 multi-task affective behavior analysis. We first adapt two pretrained visual b
