These notes describe the participation of the UMUTeam in EDiReF, the 10th shared task of SemEval 2024. The goal is to develop systems for detecting and inferring emotional changes in the conversation. The task was divided into three related subtasks: (i) Emotion Recognition in Conversation (ERC) in Hindi-English code-mixed conversations, (ii) Emotion Flip Reasoning (EFR) in Hindi-English code-mixed conversations, and (iii) EFR in English conversations. We were involved in all three and our approach is based on a fine-tuning approach with different pre-trained models. After evaluation, we found BERT to be the best model for ERC and EFR and with this model we achieved the thirteenth best result with an F1 score of 43% in Subtask 1, the sixth best in Subtask 2 with an F1 score of 26% and the fifteenth best in Subtask 3 with an F1 score of 22%.
