📝 摘要(中文)
从面部图像推断显性个性在社交场景中对人形机器人交互至关重要。与通过对话推断内在个性特征不同,该任务基于面部外观建模第一印象个性感知。现有研究主要集中于五大个性模型,通常依赖语言或多模态输入,因此尚不清楚仅凭面部线索是否能支持与感知个性特征的有意义关联。为此,本文提出了GlanceFace,一个端到端的框架,通过视觉-语言模型引入语义先验,并结合语义增强的面部表征模块捕捉细微的个性相关线索,同时采用不确定性感知学习策略处理噪声和主观注释。大量实验表明,该方法在基于MBTI的显性个性基准测试中表现出色,并揭示了面部特征与感知个性特征之间的关系,突显其支持人形机器人自适应初始交互策略的潜力。
🔬 方法详解
问题定义:本文旨在解决如何仅通过面部图像推断个性特征的问题。现有方法多依赖语言或多模态输入,导致对面部线索的有效性缺乏深入研究。
核心思路:论文的核心思路是利用视觉-语言模型引入语义先验,并通过语义增强的面部表征模块捕捉细微的个性相关线索,以提高个性推断的准确性。
技术框架:GlanceFace框架包括多个主要模块:首先是面部图像的预处理,其次是通过视觉-语言模型提取语义特征,最后结合不确定性感知学习策略处理注释噪声。
关键创新:最重要的技术创新在于引入语义增强的面部表征模块和不确定性感知学习策略,这与现有方法的单一特征提取方式有本质区别。
关键设计:在设计中,采用了特定的损失函数以优化模型对个性特征的学习,同时在网络结构上进行了调整,以增强对细微面部特征的敏感性。具体参数设置和网络结构细节在实验部分进行了详细描述。

🎯 应用场景
该研究具有广泛的应用潜力,尤其在社交机器人、虚拟助手和人机交互等领域。通过准确推断用户的个性特征,机器人可以更好地适应用户需求,提供个性化的交互体验,提升用户满意度和交互效率。
📄 摘要(原文)
Inferring apparent personality from facial images is important in social scenarios for embodied agents in human-robot interaction. Unlike inferring intrinsic personality traits via conversation, this task models first-impression personality perception based solely on facial appearance before interaction begins. Existing studies mainly focus on the Big Five personality model and often rely on language or multimodal inputs. As a result, it remains unclear whether facial cues alone can support meaningful associations with perceived personality traits. This question is particularly relevant for MBTI types, which are widely used in practice and more readily interpretable by large language models. To this end, we propose \textbf{GlanceFace}, an end-to-end framework for apparent personality inference leveraging vision-language models to introduce semantic priors and a semantic-enhanced facial representation module to capture subtle personality-related cues, together with an uncertainty-aware learning strategy to handle noisy and subjective annotations. Extensive experiments demonstrate strong performance on MBTI-based apparent personality benchmarks and reveal relationships between facial characteristics and perceived personality traits, highlighting its potential to support adaptive initial interaction strategies for embodied agents.
