MER-R1 uses dual-objective RL to optimize fast-thinking recall and slow-thinking precision separately in multimodal emotion recognition, with calibration to align them, yielding SOTA results on two benchmarks.
A cue-coverage reward plus a modality-token KL penalty makes multimodal emotion-reasoning models cite more real visual/audio evidence and hallucinate less, with reported SoTA on emotion benchmarks.
Proposes AGSR and the FAB-G supervised multi-agent framework that predicts attribute salience from human annotations to constrain MLLM emotion reasoning, yielding gains on EmoArt and cross-dataset tests.
C2F-Thinker combines structured coarse-to-fine chain-of-thought reasoning with hint-guided GRPO reinforcement learning to achieve competitive fine-grained sentiment regression and superior cross-domain generalization in multimodal analysis.
MER2026 defines four tracks to advance generative emotion understanding from individual basic labels to dyadic, fine-grained, preference, and physiological scenarios.
