Speech emotion recognition (SER) systems are constrained by existing datasets that typically cover only 6-10 basic emotions, lack scale and diversity, and face ethical challenges when collecting sensitive emotional states. We introduce…

Many studies on dialog emotion analysis focus on utterance-level emotion only. These models hence are not optimized for dialog-level emotion detection, i.e. to predict the emotion category of a dialog as a whole. More importantly, these…
