Abstract
In the fast pace of life, emotion recognition systems are essential to help monitor mental health and well-being. The continuous development of the Internet of Things (IoT) and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) improve the availability and accessibility to devices that can capture the facial expressions of a user, while wearable devices can also capture physiological signals and use them for emotion recognition. Meanwhile, machine learning and deep learning methods can provide emotion prediction models. However, the training of the models relies heavily on massive amounts of labeled data. The accuracy of data labels affects the success of the overall system. Research targeting emotion recognition uses the participants' self-reports as labels. However, participants often fail to give accurate self-reports, thus affecting the accuracy of the analysis. In this study, we examine the performance of the self-reports and external annotations for emotion recognition based on visual and physiological signals. Specifically, we use video data, as well as the Electrodermal Activity (EDA), Electroencephalogram (EEG), and Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals collected from wearable devices. We use two machine learning and three deep learning methods to process the signals and train the classifiers. The results show that the classifiers trained with external annotations offer better emotion recognition accuracy than self-reports. Also, the classifiers trained on facial expression offer better emotion prediction accuracy than the physiological signals, and the Deep Convolutional Network model shows the best results.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
