Interpretation of Time Dependent Facial Expressions in Terms of Emotional Stimuli
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we demonstrate how genetic programming can be used to interpret time dependent facial expressions in terms of emotional stimuli of different types and intensities. In our analysis we have used video records of facial expressions made during the Mars-500 experiment in which six participants have been isolated for 520 days to simulate flight to Mars. The FaceReader, commercial software developed by VicarVision and Noldus Information Technology, has been used to extract seven time dependent components of facial expressions from the video records. To interpret the obtained time dependent components of facial expressions we have proposed a mathematical model of emotional stimuli assuming that dynamics of facial expressions is determined by emotional stimuli of different types and intensities and facial expression at the moment of the stimuli. Genetic programming has been used to find the locations, types and intensities of the emotional stimuli as well as the way the facial expressions react on them.

Facial expressions are of major importance in understanding the mental and emotional states of others. So far, most studies on the perception and comprehension of emotions have used isolated facial expressions as stimuli; for example, photographs of actors displaying facial expressions corresponding to one of the so called 'basic emotions.' However, our real experience during social interaction...

This study presents an experiment in crosslinguistic multimodal interpretation of emotional expressions. Earlier studies on multimodal communication have shown an interaction between the visual and auditive modalities. Other, cross-cultural, studies indicate that facial expression of emotions is more universal than prosody is. Cross-linguistic interpretation of emotions could then be more succe...

Appropriate response to companions' emotional signals is important for all social creatures. The emotional expressions of humans and non-human animals have analogies in their form and function, suggesting shared evolutionary roots, but very little is known about how animals other than primates view and process facial expressions. In primates, threat-related facial expressions evoke exceptional ...

Facial mimicry is the spontaneous response to others' facial expressions by mirroring or matching the interaction partner. Recent evidence suggested that mimicry may not be only an automatic reaction but could be dependent on many factors, including social context, type of task in which the participant is engaged, or stimulus properties (dynamic vs static presentation). In the present study, we...
