通过动态连接面部区域，联合建模微表情的时空特征，提升识别准确率。

Micro-expression recognition is challenging due to subtle and short-lived facial muscle movements. Existing methods rely heavily on apex-onset frames, overlook fine-grained inter-frame dynamics, and separately model spatial and temporal information, limiting generalization across datasets. To address these challenges, we propose STAG, a dynamic ROI-AU-coupled spatial-temporal network that jointly models motion flow and adaptive facial connectivity. The framework extracts optical flow from discriminative frames using magnitude-based selection and temporal attention. A dual-branch architecture combines an enhanced graph attention network for structured spatial reasoning with a transformer encoder for temporal modeling. A bidirectional cross-attention module enables mutual refinement of spatial and temporal features, while AU-guided dynamic connectivity adapts facial region interactions according to muscle activation patterns. The transformer captures subtle temporal dynamics beyond apex-based approaches, improving semantic consistency and interpretability for explainable micro-expression recognition. The fused representation is optimized using focal loss and evaluated on CASME II, 4DME, DFME, NaME, SAMM, and SMIC-HS. Extensive experiments demonstrate improved robustness, generalization, interpretability, and computational efficiency, confirming the effectiveness of adaptive relational reasoning, AU-guided dynamic connectivity, and deep spatial-temporal feature fusion for accurate cross-dataset micro-expression recognition.
