Classifying Emotionally Induced Pain Intensity Using Multimodal Physiological Signals and Subjective Ratings: A Pilot Study by Eun-Hye Jang, Young-Ji Eum, Daesub Yoon, Sangwon Byun

“…We explore the feasibility of classifying perceived pain intensity—despite the stimulus being identical—using multimodal physiological signals and self-reported emotional ratings. A total of 112 healthy participants watched the same anger-inducing video, yet reported varying pain intensities (5, 6, or 7 on a 7-point scale). …”

A Natural Language Processing Model for Predicting Five-Star Ratings of Video Games on Short-Text Reviews by Piyush Jaiswal, Hardik Setia, Pranshu Raghuwanshi, Princy Randhawa

“…This research focuses on determining which natural language processing model is the most accurate at forecasting five-star ratings of video games based on brief reviews. We make use of natural language processing (NLP) to avoid the constraints that are imposed on us by the linguistic structure of short-text reviews. …”

Subthreshold depression is associated with altered facial expression and impression formation via subjective ratings and action unit analysis by Eriko Sugimori, Mayu Yamaguchi

“…Automated analysis with OpenFace 2.0 showed higher presence/intensity of AU01 (Inner Brow Raiser), AU05 (Upper Lid Raiser), AU20 (Lip Stretcher), AU25/26/28 (mouth‑opening AUs) in StD faces; five of these AUs correlated with BDI‑II after false‑discovery‑rate correction (q < 0.05). Subthreshold depression was associated with muted positive expressivity and distinct eye‑ and mouth‑movement patterns, but did not bias observers’ first‑impression judgements. …”
