SeetaPsych v1.0: An Open-source Computer Vision Toolkit for Behavior-based Psychological Measurement

The rising prevalence of psychological disorders necessitates effective emotion monitoring, yet current methods relying on facial or physiological signals often suffer from intrusiveness and privacy issues. This paper proposes an intelligent decision support system and pervasive edge-computing framework that leverages smart glasses and a companion smartphone to infer emotional states from microscopic visual fixation patterns. Moving beyond traditional macroscopic gaze metrics, the proposed system extracts and decomposes three distinct neurophysiological micro-movements: microsaccades, ocular drifts, and ocular microtremors. We introduce an interpretable hybrid artificial intelligence pipeline combining a multi-head attention mechanism, extreme gradient boosting, and a support vector machine to extract deep temporal features, quantify their physiological importance, and perform efficient on-device classification. Through an extensive evaluation involving 60 volunteers, we rigorously validate the framework under a strict leave-one-subject-out cross-validation protocol across both controlled and naturalistic mobile scenarios. Ablation studies unequivocally demonstrate that these fixational micro-movements are substantially more discriminative for emotion inference than traditional macroscopic features. Furthermore, aligned with contemporary affective science, the system incorporates a few-shot personalization mechanism to bridge universal physiological baselines with individual emotional heterogeneity, achieving a highly robust personalized F1-score of 83.6%. This work establishes a physiologically interpretable, unobtrusive, and deployable paradigm for continuous real-time emotion monitoring.

Despite the high accuracy of EEG-based emotion recognition, existing models remain opaque "black boxes", lacking semantic grounding between abstract neural features and human-interpretable states. In this paper, we reframe EEG explainability as a cross-modal generation task, shifting the paradigm from feature attribution to behavioral visualization. We introduce Facial Emoji Proxy Modeling, a novel framework that translates high-dimensional EEG signals into identity-anonymized facial emojis. Guided by the neuroscientific inspiration of neural-facial association, this approach grounds neural representations in the manifold of observable facial dynamics. Technically, our framework integrates FMENet, a specialized backbone modeling expression-relevant spatial synergies, and the Facial Emoji Learning Branch (FELB), which treats emoji reconstruction as a structured semantic regularizer. Extensive experiments on EAV and MMER benchmarks demonstrate that our method achieves state-of-the-art accuracy among EEG-only models. Crucially, it generates semantically faithful facial animations that provide a transparent, privacy-preserving window into the brain's emotional evolution, effectively allowing users to "see the emotion" directly from neural signals.

Automatic pain assessment from facial video remains challenging due to the spatial heterogeneity of pain-related facial cues. This study proposes ReFace, a spatial reorganization pipeline that divides facial input into four spatial quadrants before tokenization, rather than processing the entire face as a single region. Evaluated on the AI4Pain dataset, the proposed approach achieves $56.00\%$ accuracy on the test set using video only, achieving the highest reported accuracy under the fixed AI4Pain benchmark protocol among the compared methods. Notably, the four-quadrant configuration processes the same total pixel budget as the full-face input, yet achieves higher accuracy, suggesting that spatial reorganization can improve performance under the proposed tokenization design. A single quadrant region, processing just one quarter of those pixels, remains competitive at a fraction of the computational cost.
