چکیده

The ability of an intelligent system to recognize the user’s emotional and mental states is of considerable interest for human-robot interaction and human-machine interfaces. This paper describes an automatic recognizer of the facial expression around the eyes and forehead based on electrooculographic (EOG) signals. Six movements of the eyes, namely, up, down, right, left , blink and frown, are detected and reproduced in an avatar, aiming to analyze how they can contribute for the characterization of facial expression. The recognition algorithm extracts time and frequency domain features from EOG, which are then classified in real-time by a multiclass LDA classifier. The offline and online classification results showed a sensitivity around 92% and 85%, respectively.

Music-aided affective interaction between human and service robot

This study proposes a music-aided framework for affective interaction of service robots with humans. The framework consists of three systems, respectively, for perception, memory, and expression on the basis of the human brain mechanism. We propose a novel approach to identify human emotions in the perception system. The conventional approaches use speech and facial expressions as representativ...
