• Abstract summary: We explore ChatGPT's zero-shot ability to perform affective computing tasks using prompting alone. We show that ChatGPT a) performs meaningful sentiment analysis in the Valence, Arousal and Dominance dimensions, b) has meaningful emotion representations in terms of emotion categories, and c) can perform basic appraisal-based emotion elicitation of situations.

• Abstract: Large language models, in particular generative pre-trained transformers (GPTs), show impressive results on a wide variety of language-related tasks. In this paper, we explore ChatGPT's zero-shot ability to perform affective computing tasks using prompting alone. We show that ChatGPT a) performs meaningful sentiment analysis in the Valence, Arousal and Dominance dimensions, b) has meaningful emotion representations in terms of emotion categories and these affective dimensions, and c) can perform basic appraisal-based emotion elicitation of situations based on a prompt-based computational implementation of the OCC appraisal model. These findings are highly relevant: First, they show that the ability to solve complex affect processing tasks emerges from language-based token prediction trained on extensive data sets. Second, they show the potential of large language models for simulating, processing and analyzing human emotions, which has important implications for various applications such as sentiment analysis, socially interactive agents, and social robotics.

  This study introduces MEMO-Bench, a comprehensive benchmark consisting of 7,145 portraits, each depicting one of six different emotions. Results demonstrate that existing T2I models are more effective at generating positive emotions than negative ones. Although MLLMs show a certain degree of effectiveness in distinguishing and recognizing human emotions, they fall short of human-level accuracy.

  Human emotions are often not expressed directly, but regulated according to internal processes and social display rules. No method to automatically classify different emotion regulation strategies in a cross-user scenario exists. We make use of the recently introduced textscDeep corpus for modeling the social display of the emotion shame. A fine-tuned Llama2-7B model is able to classify the utilized emotion regulation strategy with high accuracy.

  Causal Emotion Entailment (CEE) aims to identify the causal utterances in a conversation that stimulate the emotions expressed in a target utterance. Current works in CEE mainly focus on modeling semantic and emotional interactions in conversations. We introduce a step-by-step reasoning method, Emotion-Cause Reasoning Chain (ECR-Chain), to infer the stimulus from the target emotional expressions in conversations.

  Achieving human-level recognition of the apparent emotion of a person in real world situations remains an unsolved task in computer vision. In this paper, we examine two major approaches enabled by recent large vision language models. We demonstrate that a vision language model, fine-tuned even on a small dataset, can significantly outperform traditional baselines.
