Integrating emotion recognition into multimodal correspondence learning can enhance the accuracy of audiovisual perception tasks.

Motivation

While the current work focuses on audiovisual correspondence, it does not explicitly address the emotional context that can be critical for tasks like speech retrieval and sentiment analysis. Incorporating emotion recognition may improve the system's understanding and prediction capabilities in real-world applications.

Proposed Method

Develop an extended version of the PE-AV model that includes an emotion recognition module. Train this model using a dataset annotated with emotional labels, alongside the existing audiovisual data. Evaluate performance on tasks such as emotion-based speech retrieval and sentiment analysis, comparing results with the baseline PE-AV model.

Expected Contribution

This research could lead to more nuanced multimodal systems that better interpret human emotions, improving applications in areas such as customer service and content recommendation.

Required Resources

Annotated emotional datasets, computational resources for training extended models, expertise in emotion recognition and multimodal learning.
