SMILE-Next: Teaching Large Language Models to Detect, Classify, and Reason about Laughter (2026.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing approaches to understanding laughter or humor focus on narrowly defined tasks such as detecting humor and estimating humor intensity. |
| Approach: | They propose a dataset for real-world laughter understanding with multimodal textual representations and question–answer annotations. |
| Outcome: | The proposed framework outperforms baselines in three laughter-related tasks, showing that it is robust. |
SMILE: Multimodal Dataset for Understanding Laughter in Video with Language Models (2024.findings-naacl)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Despite advances in artificial intelligence, building social intelligence remains a challenge. |
| Approach: | They propose a task to explain why people laugh in a video and a dataset to do this. |
| Outcome: | The proposed dataset generates plausible explanations for laughter in video and in-the-wild videos. |
Emosical: An Emotion-Annotated Musical Theatre Dataset (2024.findings-emnlp)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Emosical provides rich emotion annotations for musical films by inferring the background story of the characters. |
| Approach: | They propose to use a multimodal dataset of musical films to generate annotated emotion tags for each sample by inferring the background story of the characters. |
| Outcome: | The proposed dataset provides rich emotion annotations for musical films by inferring the background story of the characters. |
