| ChuckleNet-v2 Usage Example Script | |
| This script demonstrates how to use the ChuckleNet-v2 model for laughter detection. | |
| Key finding: Prosody-only (F1=0.960) outperforms WavLM fusion (F1=0.879). | |
| Based on FULL_AUDIT.md: frozen WavLM encoder destroys temporal cues via mean-pooling. | |
