Flexible-modal Deception Detection with Audio-Visual Adapter
Detecting deception by human behaviors is vital in many fields such as custom security and multimedia anti-fraud. Recently, audio-visual deception detection attracts more attention due to its better performance than using only a single modality. However, in real-world multi-modal settings, the integrity of data can be an issue (e.g., sometimes only partial modalities are available). The missing modality might lead to a decrease in performance, but the model still learns the features of the missed modality. In this paper, to further improve the performance and overcome the missing modality problem, we propose a novel Transformer-based framework with an Audio-Visual Adapter (AVA) to fuse temporal features across two modalities efficiently. Extensive experiments conducted on two benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed method can achieve superior performance compared with other multi-modal fusion methods under flexible-modal (multiple and missing modalities) settings.
