Speech emotion recognition is an important component of modern human-computer interaction systems. However, many state-of-the-art approaches rely on large pretrained models with high computational and memory requirements, limiting their applicability.
The paper introduces a multimodal emotion recognition framework that combines audio and visual feature extraction with an attention-based fusion strategy. Audio features include Wav2Vec2 embeddings, MFCCs, and statistical acoustic descriptors, fused via a BiLSTM, while video features are extracted using a ResNet50-BiLSTM architecture. A multi-head attention mechanism fuses these modalities, and experiments on MELD and IEMOCAP show significant accuracy and robustness gains, especially in unbalanced data settings.

SISER is a speaker‑invariant speech emotion recognition framework that combines wav2vec 2.0 for feature extraction with an ECAPA‑TDNN speaker discriminator in an entropy‑based adversarial training scheme. By leveraging self‑supervised representations, SISER reduces reliance on large labeled datasets and suppresses speaker identity more effectively than shallow classifiers. On the IEMOCAP benchmark, SISER achieves a UA of 60.63%, surpassing both the baseline (51.15%) and wav2vec 2.0 without speaker suppression (56.46%).

The paper evaluates deep learning models for electrocardiogram‑based emotion recognition, focusing on generalization across datasets rather than dataset‑specific performance. It introduces two open‑source tools—ARRC for standardized benchmarking and ARDT for inter‑dataset training—to merge three public AER datasets (CUADS, ASCERTAIN, DREAMER) into a more variable benchmark. Using these tools, the authors compare three prominent deep learning architectures and two CNN baselines with hyperparameter tuning and 10‑fold cross‑validation, revealing trade‑offs between accuracy and model complexity and providing a reproducible benchmark for future research.

arXiv:2606. 08573v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Speech emotion recognition (SER) is commonly formulated as utterance-level classification, although conversational emotion depends on a speaker's usual vocal range and the emotional context established by previous utterances.
