We present our winning submission to the First International Workshop on Bodily Expressed Emotion Understanding (BEEU) challenge. Based on recent literature on the effect of context/environment on emotion, as well as visual representations…
Automatic understanding of human affect using visual signals is of great importance in everyday human-machine interactions. Appraising human emotional states, behaviors and reactions displayed in real-world settings, can be accomplished…
Classifying group-level emotions is a challenging task due to complexity of video, in which not only visual, but also audio information should be taken into consideration. Existing works on multimodal emotion recognition are using bulky…
The audio-video based emotion recognition aims to classify a given video into basic emotions. In this paper, we describe our approaches in EmotiW 2019, which mainly explores emotion features and feature fusion strategies for audio and…
Emotion recognition in videos is a pivotal task in affective computing, where identifying subtle psychological states such as Ambivalence and Hesitancy holds significant value for behavioral intervention and digital health. Ambivalence and…
In recent years, Affective Computing and its applications have become a fast-growing research topic. Furthermore, the rise of Deep Learning has introduced significant improvements in the emotion recognition system compared to classical…
Multimodal emotion recognition often suffers from performance degradation in valence-arousal estimation due to noise and misalignment between audio and visual modalities. To address this challenge, we introduce TAGF, a Time-aware Gated…
This paper proposes a system capable of recognizing a speaker's utterance-level emotion through multimodal cues in a video. The system seamlessly integrates multiple AI models to first extract and pre-process multimodal information from the…
Automated affective computing in the wild is a challenging task in the field of computer vision. This paper presents three neural network-based methods proposed for the task of facial affect estimation submitted to the First…
Telling stories is an integral part of human communication which can evoke emotions and influence the affective states of the audience. Automatically modeling emotional trajectories in stories has thus attracted considerable scholarly…
This paper aims to test whether a multi-modal approach for music emotion recognition (MER) performs better than a uni-modal one on high-level song features and lyrics. We use 11 song features retrieved from the Spotify API, combined lyrics…
The goal of this study is to develop and analyze multimodal models for predicting experienced affective responses of viewers watching movie clips. We develop hybrid multimodal prediction models based on both the video and audio of the…
Over the past few years many research efforts have been devoted to the field of affect analysis. Various approaches have been proposed for: i) discrete emotion recognition in terms of the primary facial expressions; ii) emotion analysis in…
Valuable decisions and highly prioritized analysis now depend on applications such as facial biometrics, social media photo tagging, and human robots interactions. However, the ability to successfully deploy such applications is based on…
In this paper, we propose a new automatic Action Units (AUs) recognition method used in a competition, Affective Behavior Analysis in-the-wild (ABAW). Our method tackles a problem of AUs label inconsistency among subjects by using pairwise…
In this study, we revisit key training strategies in machine learning often overlooked in favor of deeper architectures. Specifically, we explore balancing strategies, activation functions, and fine-tuning techniques to enhance speech…
The affect embedded in video data conveys high-level semantic information about the content and has direct impact on the understanding and perception of reviewers, as well as their emotional responses. Affective Video Content Analysis…
Dimensional representations of speech emotions such as the arousal-valence (AV) representation provide a continuous and fine-grained description and control than their categorical counterparts. They have wide applications in tasks such as…
Face based affective computing consists in detecting emotions from face images. It is useful to unlock better automatic comprehension of human behaviours and could pave the way toward improved human-machines interactions. However it comes…
Throughout the past decade, many studies have classified human emotions using only a single sensing modality such as face video, electroencephalogram (EEG), electrocardiogram (ECG), galvanic skin response (GSR), etc. The results of these…
