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…
Video content is rich in semantics and has the ability to evoke various emotions in viewers. In recent years, with the rapid development of affective computing and the explosive growth of visual data, affective video content analysis (AVCA)…
The technical report presents our emotion recognition pipeline for high-dimensional emotion task (A-VB High) in The ACII Affective Vocal Bursts (A-VB) 2022 Workshop \& Competition. Our proposed method contains three stages. Firstly, we…
Human affective behavior analysis plays a vital role in human-computer interaction (HCI) systems. In this paper, we introduce our submission to the CVPR 2023 Competition on Affective Behavior Analysis in-the-wild (ABAW). We propose a…
As a common way of emotion signaling via non-linguistic vocalizations, vocal burst (VB) plays an important role in daily social interaction. Understanding and modeling human vocal bursts are indispensable for developing robust and general…
Detection of human emotions based on facial images in real-world scenarios is a difficult task due to low image quality, variations in lighting, pose changes, background distractions, small inter-class variations, noisy crowd-sourced…
Analysis of human affect plays a vital role in human-computer interaction (HCI) systems. Due to the difficulty in capturing large amounts of real-life data, most of the current methods have mainly focused on controlled environments, which…
Ambivalence and hesitancy (A/H), closely related constructs, are the primary reasons why individuals delay, avoid, or abandon health behaviour changes. They are subtle and conflicting emotions that sets a person in a state between positive…
Automatic emotion recognition (ER) has recently gained lot of interest due to its potential in many real-world applications. In this context, multimodal approaches have been shown to improve performance (over unimodal approaches) by…
In recent times, there has been significant interest in the machine recognition of human emotions, due to the suite of applications to which this knowledge can be applied. A number of different modalities, such as speech or facial…
Visual Emotion Analysis (VEA) aims at predicting people's emotional responses to visual stimuli. This is a promising, yet challenging, task in affective computing, which has drawn increasing attention in recent years. Most of the existing…
Many individuals especially those with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), alexithymia, or other neurodivergent profiles face challenges in recognizing, expressing, or interpreting emotions. To support more inclusive and personalized emotion…
Emotion detection is an established NLP task of demonstrated utility for text understanding. However, basic emotion detection leaves out key information, namely, who is experiencing the emotion in question. For example, it may be the…
Videos can evoke a range of affective responses in viewers. The ability to predict evoked affect from a video, before viewers watch the video, can help in content creation and video recommendation. We introduce the Evoked Expressions from…
The quantified measurement of facial expressiveness is crucial to analyze human affective behavior at scale. Unfortunately, methods for expressiveness quantification at the video frame-level are largely unexplored, unlike the study of…
Multimodal Emotion Recognition in Conversations (ERC) is a typical multimodal learning task in exploiting various data modalities concurrently. Prior studies on effective multimodal ERC encounter challenges in addressing modality imbalances…
The ACM Multimedia 2023 Computational Paralinguistics Challenge addresses two different problems for the first time in a research competition under well-defined conditions: In the Emotion Share Sub-Challenge, a regression on speech has to…
The paper describes our proposed methodology for the six basic expression classification track of Affective Behavior Analysis in-the-wild (ABAW) Competition 2022. In Learing from Synthetic Data(LSD) task, facial expression recognition (FER)…
Recognizing complex behavioral states such as Ambivalence and Hesitancy (A/H) in naturalistic video settings remains a significant challenge in affective computing. Unlike basic facial expressions, A/H manifests as subtle, multimodal…
In this work, we explore the emotional reactions that real-world images tend to induce by using natural language as the medium to express the rationale behind an affective response to a given visual stimulus. To embark on this journey, we…
