ArXi:2603.11715v1 Announce Type: cross The expression of affect is integral to spoken communication, yet, its link to underlying articulatory execution remains unclear. Measures of articulatory muscle activity such as EMG could reveal how speech production is modulated by emotion alongside acoustic speech analyses. We investigate affect decoding from facial and neck surface electromyography (sEMG) during phonated and silent speech production. For this purpose, we
