FUSE- FrUstration and Surprise Expressions: ASubtle Emotional Multimodal Language Corpus

This study introduces a novel multimodal corpus for expressive task-based spoken language and dialogue, focused on language use under frustration and surprise, elicited from three tasks motivated by prior research and collected in an IRB-approved experiment. The resource is unique both because these are understudied affect states for emotion modeling in language, and also because it provides both individual and dyadic multimodally grounded language. The study includes a detailed analysis of annotations and performance results for multimodal emotion inference in language use.
