An emotion analysis and recognition system including an automated recognition of bodily expression of emotion (ARBEE) system is described. The system may include program instructions executable by a processor to: receive a plurality of body movement models, each body movement model generated based on a crowdsourced body language dataset, calculate at least one evaluation metric for each body movement model, select a highest ranked body movement model based on the at least one metric calculated for each body movement model, combine the highest ranked body movement model with at least one other body movement model of the plurality of body movement models, calculate at least one evaluation metric for each combination of body movement models, and determine a highest ranked combination of body movement models to predict a bodily expression of emotion.
