Cross-Modal Emotion Understanding: A Transformer-GAT Approach for Dialogue Emotion Recognition

Read the original on arXiv AI →

Cross-Modal Emotion Understanding: A Transformer-GAT Approach for Dialogue Emotion Recognition proposes a hybrid framework that combines a Transformer and a Graph Attention Network to capture both global semantic information and fine-grained relationships between modalities. The model is evaluated on the IEMOCAP and MELD datasets, achieving weighted F1 scores of 72.45% and 77.37%, respectively, and surpasses state‑of‑the‑art methods. These results suggest that integrating multimodal features with balanced global and local context modeling can provide deeper emotional insights for dialogue emotion recognition.

Enhancing Multimodal Emotion Recognition via Multi-Feature Encoding and Attention-Based Fusion

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.

Affect-Prototype Guided Fusion for Open-Vocabulary Incomplete Multi-modal Emotion Recognition

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.
