## Introduction to Multimodal Emotion Recognition Research

This article comparatively analyzes the performance of CNN, LSTM, GRU, and logistic regression in multimodal emotion recognition tasks, explores best practices for fusing image (FER2013) and audio (RAVDESS) data, covering core content such as model comparison, engineering implementation, and application scenarios.

## Technical Background and Dataset Description

Emotion recognition is an important branch of artificial intelligence. Multimodal approaches capture the complexity of emotions more accurately by fusing information such as facial expressions and speech. The image modality uses the FER2013 dataset (facial images of 7 basic emotions), and the audio modality uses the RAVDESS dataset (speech recordings of 8 emotions).

## Experimental Results of Model Architecture Comparison

**Image Modality**: Logistic regression accuracy is 18.04%, CNN improves to 58.00%; **Audio Modality**: Logistic regression: 65.79%, LSTM:52.26%, GRU:57.14%, 1D-CNN achieves the best result at 77.82%.

## Key Findings and Technical Insights

1. Input representation determines model selection; 2. Audio modality has better recognition performance than image modality; 3. 1D-CNN outperforms RNN variants in audio tasks.

## Engineering Implementation and Application Scenarios

The project uses FastAPI for the backend and Next.js for the frontend, supporting real-time inference and visualization. Application scenarios include customer service, educational assistance, mental health monitoring, human-computer interaction, etc., but the generalization of the model in real scenarios needs to be verified.

## Practical Recommendations and Research Limitations

Recommendations: Explore modality fusion strategies, data augmentation, pre-trained models, and attention mechanisms. Limitations: The datasets are from laboratory environments, the model's generalization needs verification, and emotion recognition should be used as an auxiliary tool rather than an absolute judgment basis.
