RAFM-SER++: A Lightweight Multimodal Emotion Recognition Framework for Real-Time Behavioral Monitoring in Surveillance Systems

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper introduces RAFM-SER++, a lightweight multimodal speech emotion recognition framework designed for real‑time surveillance systems. It replaces heavy bidirectional cross‑modal transformers with an asymmetric Residual Attention Fusion Mechanism that injects affective speech cues into text representations via a one‑directional residual attention pathway. Experiments on IEMOCAP and ESD show RAFM‑SER++ outperforms the HuBERT‑Base baseline and MemoCMT, reducing trainable parameters by over 60%, achieving 79.60 it/s inference speed, and reaching BACC scores of 81.10% on IEMOCAP and 95.39% on ESD.

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.

CLEAR: Coupling Local Evidence with Affective Representations for Multimodal Emotion Recognition in Conversation

The paper introduces CLEAR, a framework for Multimodal Emotion Recognition in Conversation that couples contextual representations with local discriminative cues. It replaces emotion label generation with continuous internal representations from a vision‑language model and trains a classifier on these representations. Sample‑adaptive residual coupling is used to integrate textual and acoustic evidence from the target utterance into the contextual representation, improving emotion recognition performance on IEMOCAP and MELD datasets.
