Abstract :
Recently, there has been considerable interest in the recognition of affect in language. In this paper, we investigate how information fusion using linguistic (lexical, stylometric, deictic) and acoustic information can be utilized for this purpose and present a comprehensive study of fusion. We examine fusion at the decision level and the feature level and discuss obtained results.
