Computational emotion analysis with multimodal LLMs: Current evidence on an emerging methodological opportunity

arXiv CS.CL

ArXi:2512.10882v4 Announce Type: replace Research increasingly leverages audio-visual materials to analyze emotions in political communication. Multimodal large language models (mLLMs) promise to enable such analyses through in-context learning. However, we lack systematic evidence on whether current mLLMs can reliably measure emotions in real-world political settings.
