Two-Stage Multimodal Framework for Emotion Mimicry Intensity Prediction
We present our submission to the Hume-ABAW10 Emotional Mimicry Intensity (EMI) Challenge, which aims to predict six continuous emotion intensity dimensions: Admiration, Amusement, Determination, Empathic Pain, Excitement, and Joy, from in-the-wild multimodal video clips. We propose a staged multimodal framework that combines textual, acoustic, and visual representations, with an optional motion branch. Our approach first trains modality-specific encoders independently and then fuses their learned representations through a lightweight regressor with modality dropout and controlled encoder adaptation. Across our submitted systems, the best validation performance is obtained by the text--audio--vision--motion fusion model under the expanded 4:1 split, achieving an average Pearson correlation of 0.4722. Although the motion branch yields only very slight gains, its behavior can be interesting to study. Our team was placed third in the EMI challenge, achieving an average Pearson correlation of 0.57 for the test set. Overall, we provide a practical and reproducible baseline for EMI prediction.
