Abstract
Even though facial expressions have universal meaning in communications, their appearances show a large amount of variation due to many factors, such as different image acquisition setups, different ages, genders, and cultural backgrounds etc. Collecting enough amounts of annotated samples for each target domain is impractical, this paper investigates the problem of facial expression recognition in the more challenging situation, where the training and testing samples are taken from different domains. To address this problem, after observing the fact of unsatisfactory performance of the Kernel Mean Matching (KMM) algorithm, we propose a supervised extension that matches the distributions in a class-to-class manner, called Supervised Kernel Mean Matching (SKMM). The new approach stands out by taking into consideration both matching the distributions and preserving the discriminative information between classes at the same time. The extensive experimental studies on four cross-dataset facial expression recognition tasks show promising improvements of the proposed method, in which a small number of labeled samples guide the matching process.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
