• Abstract summary: The emotion recognition in conversation (ERC) task aims to predict the emotion label of an utterance in a conversation. We design a novel speaker modeling scheme that explores intra- and inter-speaker dependencies jointly in a dynamic manner. We also propose a Speaker-Guided-Decoder (SGED) framework for ERC, which fully exploits speaker information for the decoding of emotion.

• Abstract: The emotion recognition in conversation (ERC) task aims to predict the emotion label of an utterance in a conversation. Since the dependencies between speakers are complex and dynamic, which consist of intra- and inter-speaker dependencies, the modeling of speaker-specific information is a vital role in ERC. Although existing researchers have proposed various methods of speaker interaction modeling, they cannot explore dynamic intra- and inter-speaker dependencies jointly, leading to the insufficient comprehension of context and further hindering emotion prediction. To this end, we design a novel speaker modeling scheme that explores intra- and inter-speaker dependencies jointly in a dynamic manner. Besides, we propose a Speaker-Guided Encoder-Decoder (SGED) framework for ERC, which fully exploits speaker information for the decoding of emotion. We use different existing methods as the conversational context encoder of our framework, showing the high scalability and flexibility of the proposed framework. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority and effectiveness of SGED.

  We propose a conversational speech emotion recognition method to deal with capturing attentive contextual dependency and speaker-sensitive interactions. First, we use a pretrained VGGish model to extract segment-based audio representation in individual utterances. Second, an attentive bi-directional recurrent unit (GRU) models contextual-sensitive information and explores intra- and inter-speaker dependencies jointly.

  A multi-turn dialogue is composed of multiple utterances from two or more different speaker roles. In the existing retrieval-based multi-turn dialogue modeling, the pre-trained language models (PrLMs) as encoder represent the dialogues coarsely. We propose a novel model to fill such a gap by modeling the effective utterance-aware and speaker-aware representations entailed in a dialogue history.
