In this project we intendeded to predict the degree of persuasiveness of a movie reviewer (either highly persuasive or non-persuasive) by using Multimodal Signal Processing techniques (techniques to combine audio, visual or textual representations), aided with appropriate Machine Learning tools (various feature selection and classification algorithms). We simultaneously looked at visual, acoustic and linguistic features individually as well as by merging them to do the prediction. The above figure shows an overview of the recognition pipeline.
The project was conducted in a team of three. The results were published in several top conferences/workshops.
