Affective
Intelligence Lab

Understanding humans.

We explore multimodal machine learning and affective computing.

We study how machine learning can help us understand emotion and behavior from facial expressions, voice, and language. By considering these signals together and in context, we explore what models can reveal about human experience, and where their interpretations fall short.
