Success in this endeavor depends on the answers to three questions: What kinds of meaning are expressed through listener vocalizations? What form is suitable for a given meaning? And, in what context should which listener vocalizations be produced? In this paper, we address the first of these questions. We present a method to record natural and expressive listener vocalizations for synthesis, and describe our approach to identify a suitable categorical description of the meaning conveyed in the vocalizations. In our data, one actor produces a total of 967 listener vocalizations, in his natural speaking style and three acted emotion-specific personalities. In an open categorization scheme, we find that eleven categories occur on at least 5% of the vocalizations, and that most vocalizations are better described by two or three categories rather than a single one. Furthermore, an annotation of meaning reference, according to Buhler's Organon model, allows us to make interesting observations regarding the listener's own state, his stance towards the interlocutor, and his attitude towards the topic of the conversation.","PeriodicalId":330737,"journal":{"name":"2009 3rd International Conference on Affective Computing and Intelligent Interaction and Workshops","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114350632","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the results of an empirical study a system for simulating emotional facial expressions for a virtual human has been evolved. This system consists of two parts: (1) a control architecture for simulating emotional facial expressions with respect to Pleasure, Arousal, and Dominance (PAD) values, (2) an expressive output component for animating the virtual human's facial muscle actions called Action Units (AUs), modeled following the Facial Action Coding System (FACS). A large face repertoire of about 6000 faces arranged in PAD-space with respect to two dominance values (dominant vs. submissive) is obtained as a result of the empirical study. Using the face repertoire an approach towards realizing facial mimicry for a virtual human based on backward mapping AUs displaying an emotional facial expression on PAD-values is outlined. A preliminary evaluation of this first approach is realized with AUs corresponding to the basic emotions Happy and Angry.","PeriodicalId":330737,"journal":{"name":"2009 3rd International Conference on Affective Computing and Intelligent Interaction and Workshops","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127829976","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A core requirement for these social agents is the ability to establish and maintain long-term trusting and engaging relationship with their human users. Much research has already been done on the prerequisites for these types of social agents and robots, in affective computing, social computing and affective HCI. A number of disciplines within psychology and the social sciences are also relevant, contributing theories, data and methods relevant for the emerging areas of social robotics, and social computing in general. However, the complexity of the task of designing these social agents, and the diversity of the relevant disciplines, can be overwhelming.

Typically, for each action unit (AU) or other expression, the peak frames are selected as positive class and the negative samples are selected from other AUs. This approach suffers from at least two drawbacks. One, because many state of the art classifiers, such as Support Vector Machines (SVMs), fail to scale well with increases in the number of training samples (e.g. for the worse case in SVM), it may be infeasible to use all potential training data. Two, it often is unclear how best to choose the positive and negative samples. If we only label the peaks as positive samples, a large imbalance will result between positive and negative samples, especially for infrequent AU. On the other hand, if all frames from onset to offset are labeled as positive, many may differ minimally or not at all from the negative class. Frames near onsets and offsets often differ little from those that precede them. In this paper, we propose Dynamic Cascades with Bidirectional Bootstrapping (DCBB) to address these issues. DCBB optimally selects positive and negative class samples in training sets. In experimental evaluations in non-posed video from the RU-FACS Database, DCBB yielded improved performance for action unit recognition relative to alternative approaches.","PeriodicalId":330737,"journal":{"name":"2009 3rd International Conference on Affective Computing and Intelligent Interaction and Workshops","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134584929","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because of the possible impacts of affective state on learning, it is a goal of many intelligent tutoring systems to attempt to control student emotional states through affective interventions. While much work has gone into improving the quality of these interventions, we are only beginning to understand the complexities of the relationships between affect, learning, and feedback. This paper investigates the consequences associated with providing affective feedback. It represents a first step toward the long-term objective of designing intelligent tutoring systems that can utilize this information for analysis of the risks and benefits of affective intervention. It reports on the results of two studies that were conducted with students interacting with affect-informed virtual agents. The studies reveal that emotion-specific risk/reward information is associated with particular affective states and suggests that future systems might leverage this information to make determinations about affective interventions.","PeriodicalId":330737,"journal":{"name":"2009 3rd International Conference on Affective Computing and Intelligent Interaction and Workshops","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130753218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, a different type of BCI has emerged [4, 17], which instead focuses solely on the non-intrusive recognition of mental state elicited by a given primary human-machine interaction. These so-called passive BCIs (pBCIs) do, by their nature, not disturb the primary interaction, and thus allow for enhancement of human-machine systems with relatively low usage cost [12,18], especially in conjunction with gel-free sensors. Here, we apply pBCIs to detect cognitive processes containing covert user states, which are difficult to access with conventional exogenous measures. We present two variants of a task inspired by an erroneously adapting human-machine system, a scenario important in automated adaptation. In this context, we derive two related, yet complementary, applications of pBCIs. First, we show that pBCIs are capable of detecting a covert user state related to the perception of loss of control over a system. The detection is realized by exploiting non-stationarities induced by the loss of control. Second, we show that pBCIs can be used to detect a covert user state directly correlated to the user's interpretation of erroneous actions of the machine. We then demonstrate the use of this information to enhance the interaction between the user and the machine, in an experiment outside the laboratory.","PeriodicalId":330737,"journal":{"name":"2009 3rd International Conference on Affective Computing and Intelligent Interaction and Workshops","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129532283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
