Overview
Social interactions dominate our perceptions of the world and shape our daily behavior by attaching social meaning to acts as simple as gestures, facial expressions, voice, and speech. Inter-Stance is a new data corpus of multimodal dyadic interaction (45 dyads, 90 persons).
Key features
- Synchronized multimodal recordings:
- 2D face video
- 3D face geometry
- Thermal spectrum dynamics
- Voice and speech behavior
- Physiology: PPG, EDA, heart rate, blood pressure, and respiration
- Self-reported affect from all participants
- Two dyad types: persons with a shared past history and strangers
- Annotations: social signals, agreement, disagreement, and neutral stance
- Emotion induction: a potent emotion-elicitation protocol to capture expressive interpersonal behavior
Significance
With richly induced emotional states and synchronized multi-modality behavior, these data will enable novel modeling of multimodal interpersonal behavior and conversational stance. The dataset contains approximately 20TB of multimodal data and will be shared with the research community.
