Pseudo-Label Augmentation for Affect Sensing in Small Collaborative Groups

Meisam Jamshidi Seikavandi, Tanya Ignatenko, Fabricio Batista Narcizo +3

Physiological affect sensing in naturalistic group interaction is often limited by sparse labels rather than sensor data: wearable devices produce many time windows, while self-rep…
