Abstract
The sentiment expressed by a meeting participant in their face-to-face comments may differ from the sentiment contained in their private summary of the meeting. In this work, we investigate whether we can predict the sentiment score of a participant’s private post-meeting summary, based on multi-modal features derived from the group interaction during the meeting. We describe several effective prediction models, all of which outperform a baseline that assumes the sentiment score of the summary will be the same as the sentiment score of the participant’s comments during the meeting.

The terms subjectivity and sentiment are very closely related, and we use the latter.
