arXiv:2606. 01906v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Emotions evolve through the dynamics of conversation, and understanding their transition structure is foundational to applications ranging from mental-health screening to dialogue systems.
arXiv:2608. 07867v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal emotion recognition often treats self-reported labels as reliable supervision while overlooking self-report unreliability and cross-modal conflict.
arXiv:2606. 26987v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent work identified emotion vectors in Claude Sonnet 4.
arXiv:2608. 15619v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Emotion recognition from text keeps improving on benchmarks, yet whether an accuracy ceiling has been reached is seldom asked with discipline.
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.
arXiv:2606. 31442v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Emotion-sensing AI is rapidly becoming embedded in vehicles, home appliances, dialogue agents, and social infrastructure, giving rise to a sphere in which emotion is no longer confined to individual experience but is instead observed and computed at a societal scale, a domain we term the Affectosphere.
arXiv:2601. 00181v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We address two persistent gaps in Emotion Recognition in Conversation: which modeling choices materially affect performance, and how recognition findings connect to interpretable discourse-level patterns.
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.
Skill-based LLM agents select reusable procedures from an external library to solve complex tasks, yet their routing decisions rely entirely on text-level signals such as task descriptions, verbal reflections, and experience-derived rules, while the model's own internal representational state remains unobserved. Recent interpretability work has shown that LLMs maintain linear emotion representations that causally influence behavior; however, these representations have been exploited only for post-hoc analysis or direct output steering, and have not been used to inform agent-level decision-making.
arXiv:2606. 14742v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Do LLMs have emotions?
arXiv:2607. 28648v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly used for emotional support tasks, such as negative thought reframing.
arXiv:2512. 13998v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Music Emotion Recognition (MER) is constrained by limited expert annotations and the need to establish robustness across heterogeneous corpora.
arXiv:2606. 27536v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speech emotion recognition (SER) often relies on hard consensus labels that collapse annotator disagreement.
