EMOTIC (EMOTIons in Context)
The EMOTIC dataset, named after EMOTions In Context, is a database of images with people in real environments, annotated with their apparent emotions. The images are annotated with an extended list of 26 emotion categories combined with the three common continuous dimensions Valence, Arousal and Dominance.

Papers archive 2025-07-28
7 shown of 7 papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks, newest first. The archive's own "papers using this dataset" list was never published, so this is the benchmark-backed subset; the archive's count for this dataset is 38. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
