This paper presents a novel concept: a graphical representation of human emotion extracted from text sentences. The major contributions of this paper are the following. First, we present a pipeline that extracts, processes, and renders emotion of 3D virtua ...
Assessing emotional states of users evoked during their multimedia consumption has received a great deal of attention with recent advances in multimedia content distribution technologies and increasing interest in personalized content delivery. Physiologic ...
Emotion is now been granted a more prominent position in areas such as the study of moral or pro-social behaviour (Hoffman, 2001). Its importance is also increasingly being recognised in development education (Tormey, 2005). This research looks at the role ...
Facial expressions are known to impact observers' behavior, even when they are not consciously identifiable. Relying on visual crowding, a perceptual phenomenon whereby peripheral faces become undiscriminable, we show that participants exposed to happy vs. ...
The communication between avatar and agent has already been treated from different but specialized perspectives. In contrast, this paper gives a balanced view of every key architectural aspect: from text analysis to computer graphics, the chatting system a ...
Schizophrenia is a devastating psychiatric illness characterized by deterioration of cognitive and emotional processing. It has been hypothesized that aberrant cortical connectivity is implicated in the disease (Friston, 1998), yet previous studies of func ...
Purpose – Intelligent control for unidentified systems with unstable equilibriums is not always a proper control strategy, which results in inferior performance in many cases. Because of the existing trial and error manner of the procedure in former durati ...
The aim of this paper are threefold: it explores methods for the detection of affective states in text, it presents the usage of such affective cues in a conversational system and it evaluates its effectiveness in a virtual reality setting. Valence and aro ...
Communication between humans deeply relies on the capability of expressing and recognizing feelings. For this reason, research on human-machine interaction needs to focus on the recognition and simulation of emotional states, prerequisite of which is the c ...
Model-free control of unidentified systems with unstable equilibriums results in serious problems. In order to surmount these difficulties, firstly an existing model-based controller is used as a mentor for emotional-learning controller. This learning phas ...
