Impact of Annotation Modality on Label Quality and Model Performance in the Automatic Assessment of Laughter In-the-Wild

Although laughter is known to be a multimodal signal, it is primarily annotated from audio. It is unclear how laughter labels may differ when annotated from modalities like video, which capture body movements and are relevant in in-the-wild studies. In this work we ask whether annotations of laughter are congruent across modalities, and...

CEAP-360VR: A Continuous Physiological and Behavioral Emotion Annotation Dataset for 360 VR Videos

Watching 360 videos using Virtual Reality (VR) head-mounted displays (HMDs) provides interactive and immersive experiences, where videos can evoke different emotions. Existing emotion self-report techniques within VR however are either retrospective or interrupt the immersive experience. To address this, we introduce the Continuous...
