用面部区域运动特征分析帕金森病视频,效果稳定可解释。
Interpretable Temporal Facial-Region Motion Analysis for In-the-Wild Parkinson's Disease Video Classification

- 从14个面部区域提取时序运动描述符,用归一化速度特征建模
- 在YouTubePD数据集上达0.826平衡准确率和0.855的AUROC
- 结果可解释性强,适合医疗影像分析与轻量级应用
帕金森病常表现为面部表情减少,即面无表情或动作迟缓。本文研究了从面部关键点提取的时序运动描述符是否可用于野外视频中的帕金森病分类。每段视频通过14个预定义面部区域的几何描述符表示:静态几何、归一化几何、基于速度的描述符、相对速度描述符,以及一个GRU序列基线模型。在相同的二分类协议下进行比较。为评估稳定性与可解释性,引入种子鲁棒性分析、区域级别消融实验及置换重要性分析。最佳结果来自归一化速度描述符与随机森林分类器,测试集上达到0.826的平衡准确率和0.855的AUROC。在10个随机种子下,平衡准确率为0.810 ± 0.018,AUROC为0.855 ± 0.005。整体表明,归一化面部区域运动是一种轻量且可解释的表示方法,适用于YouTubePD视频分类。研究定位为基准分析,不声称临床严重程度评估或MDS-UPDRS面部评分。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Reduced facial expressivity is a common motor manifestation of Parkinson's disease (PD), often described as hypomimia or facial bradykinesia. This paper examines whether temporal motion descriptors extracted from facial-region keypoints can support in-the-wild PD-related video classification on the YouTubePD benchmark. Each video is represented using geometric descriptors from 14 predefined facial regions. Static geometry, normalized geometry, velocity-based descriptors, relative-velocity descriptors, and a GRU sequence baseline are compared under the same binary classification protocol. To assess stability and interpretability, the study includes seed-robustness analysis, region-level ablation, and permutation importance. The best result is obtained with normalized velocity descriptors and a Random Forest classifier, reaching a balanced accuracy of 0.826 and an AUROC of 0.855 on the held-out test split. Across 10 random seeds, this representation remains stable, with balanced accuracy of 0.810 +/- 0.018 and AUROC of 0.855 +/- 0.005. Overall, the results suggest that normalized facial-region motion is a lightweight and interpretable representation for YouTubePD video classification. The study is framed as a benchmark-level analysis and does not claim clinical severity assessment or MDS-UPDRS facial-expression scoring.
