# AffectDynamics (Team AGI) — Longitudinal Affect Prediction Model
|

|

AffectDynamics is a temporal affect modeling system developed for **SemEval-2026 Task 2: Predicting Variation in Emotional Valence and Arousal over Time from Ecological Essays**.
|
| 30 |
|
|
|
|
| 48 |
- Produces contextual embeddings for each text input.
|
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
Different pooling strategies are used depending on text type:
|
| 51 |
+
|
| 52 |
+
- Essays → CLS / pooler representation
|
| 53 |
+
- Feeling word lists → mean pooled token embeddings
|
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
### 2. Temporal Encoder
|
| 56 |
- **Unidirectional GRU**
|
| 57 |
+
- Models longitudinal emotional dynamics across user timelines
|
| 58 |
+
- Ensures **causal temporal modeling** (no future information leakage)
|
| 59 |
|

### 3. User Conditioning
|
| 61 |
- **Gated user embedding**
|
| 62 |
+
- Uses user statistics such as:
|
| 63 |
- number of samples
|
| 64 |
- timeline length
|
| 65 |
- emotional entropy
|
|
|
|
| 67 |
This allows interpolation between **user-specific** and **global representations**.

# Limitations
|
| 158 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| 159 |
1. **Stability bias**
|
| 160 |
+
- Temporal modeling smooths predictions and reduces sensitivity to abrupt changes.
|
| 161 |
|
| 162 |
2. **Dataset domain**
|
| 163 |
+
- Data originates from a specific population (U.S. service-industry workers).
|
| 164 |
|
| 165 |
+
3. **Limited users**
|
| 166 |
+
- Only **137 users** in training data.
|
| 167 |
|
| 168 |
4. **Change prediction difficulty**
|
| 169 |
+
- Predicting emotional deltas is harder than predicting absolute states.

- dataset demographic bias
