arXiv:2604. 00819v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Understanding emotions in natural language is inherently a multi-dimensional reasoning problem, where multiple affective signals interact through context, interpersonal relations, and situational cues.
arXiv:2608. 10810v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Emotion understanding in discourse requires reasoning beyond surface sentiment because speakers often convey affect through indirect, implicit, polite, ironic, or deliberately mismatched expressions.
Understanding both expressed and evoked emotions is critical for multimodal large language models (MLLMs) to achieve comprehensive affect-aware interactions. However, existing benchmarks typically examine expressed and evoked emotions in isolation or are constrained to coarse-grained and incomplete affective characterizations.
arXiv:2606. 29068v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Text encoders are known for their utility in natural language processing, as they are able to efficiently compress inputs into dense vectors while preserving semantics.
arXiv:2607. 28648v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used for emotional support tasks, such as negative thought reframing.
arXiv:2607. 00661v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Explanations for emotion classifiers are usually produced post hoc, with no guarantee that they reflect the computation behind the label.
arXiv:2601. 07565v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multimodal emotion understanding requires the integration of heterogeneous data sources, including text, audio, and visual modalities, while simultaneously addressing discrete emotion recognition and continuous sentiment analysis.
arXiv:2608. 10448v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal emotion recognition in conversation (MERC) requires understanding complex interactions between verbal and non-verbal cues.
arXiv:2604. 15280v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Understanding emotions is a fundamental ability for intelligent systems to be able to interact with humans.
arXiv:2606. 27717v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Prosodic emphasis varies across languages, emotions, and speaking styles, yet existing emphasis detection models are largely trained and evaluated on monolingual neutral read speech.
arXiv:2504. 11837v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Emotional support conversation (ESC) aims to alleviate people's emotional distress through effective conversations.
arXiv:2602. 16161v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Emotional expression underpins natural communication and effective human-computer interaction.
arXiv:2606. 07707v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Decoding emotional states from neural signals has been typically framed as a discrete, single-label classification task based on emotionally stable stimuli, a formulation that oversimplifies the continuous, fluid, and co-occurring nature of human affect.
