Emotion Recognition Based on Multimodal Information

  • Chapter
Affective Information Processing

Abstract

Here is a conversation between an interviewer and a subject occurring in an Adult Attachment Interview (Roisman, Tsai, & Chiang, 2004). AUs are facial action units defined in Ekman, Friesen, and Hager (2002).

The interviewer asked: “Now, let you choose five adjective words to describe your childhood relationship with your mother when you were about five years old, or as far back as you remember.”
