[Application of multi-scale spatiotemporal networks in physiological signal and facial action unit measurement].

Multi-task learning (MTL) has demonstrated significant advantages in the field of physiological signal measurement. This approach enhances the model's generalization ability by sharing parameters and features between similar tasks, even in data-scarce environments. However, traditional multi-task physiological signal measurement methods face challenges such as feature conflicts between tasks, task imbalance, and excessive model complexity, which limit their application in complex environments. To address these issues, this paper proposes an enhanced multi-scale spatiotemporal network (EMSTN) based on Eulerian video magnification (EVM), super-resolution reconstruction and convolutional multilayer perceptron. First, EVM is introduced in the input stage of the network to amplify subtle color and motion changes in the video, significantly improving the model's ability to capture pulse and respiratory signals. Additionally, a super-resolution reconstruction module is integrated into the network to enhance the image resolution, thereby improving detail capture and increasing the accuracy of facial action unit (AU) tasks. Then, convolutional multilayer perceptron is employed to replace traditional 2D convolutions, improving feature extraction efficiency and flexibility, which significantly boosts the performance of heart rate and respiratory rate measurements. Finally, comprehensive experiments on the Binghamton-Pittsburgh 4D Spontaneous Facial Expression Database (BP4D+) fully validate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method in multi-task physiological signal measurement.
