Shapes of Emotions: Multimodal Emotion Recognition in Conversations via Emotion Shifts

Understand

Emotion Recognition in Conversations (ERC) is an important and active research area.

• Recent work has shown the benefits of using multiple modalities (e.g., text, audio, and video) for the ERC task.
• In a conversation, participants tend to maintain a particular emotional state unless some stimuli evokes a change.
• There is a continuous ebb and flow of emotions in a conversation.
