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.

The paper introduces Affect-Prototype Guided Fusion (APCF), a framework for open‑vocabulary multimodal emotion recognition that handles incomplete and unsynchronized modal data. APCF builds an affect‑prototype library to model how different emotions contribute across modalities, enabling dynamic fusion of available features. The fused representations are then decoded by an LLM to generate open‑vocabulary emotion labels, achieving superior performance on OV‑MERD+ and MER‑FG datasets compared to existing methods.

arXiv:2607. 16076v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal sarcasm and cyberbullying detection remain challenging because the intended meaning often emerges from incongruity between textual and visual information rather than from either modality alone.
