Using Tactical NLG to Induce Affective States: Empirical Investigations
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper reports on attempts at Aberdeen1 to measure the effects on readers’ emotions of positively and negatively “slanted” texts with the same basic message. The “slanting” methods could be implemented in an (NLG) system. We discuss a number of possible reasons why the studies were unable to show clear, statistically significant differences between the effects of the different texts.

Towards Empirical Evaluation of Affective Tactical NLG
One major aim of research in affective natural language generation is to be able to use language intelligently to induce effects on the emotions of the reader/ hearer. Although varying the content of generated language (“strategic” choices) might be expected to change the effect on emotions, it is not obvious that varying the form of the language (“tactical” choices) can do this. Indeed, previo...
متن کاملCombination of Empirical Mode Decomposition Components of HRV Signals for Discriminating Emotional States
Introduction Automatic human emotion recognition is one of the most interesting topics in the field of affective computing. However, development of a reliable approach with a reasonable recognition rate is a challenging task. The main objective of the present study was to propose a robust method for discrimination of emotional responses thorough examination of heart rate variability (HRV). In t...
متن کاملTowards Affective Natural Language Generation: Empirical Investigations
This paper reports on attempts to measure the differing effects on readers’ emotions of positively and negatively “slanted” texts with the same basic message. The methods of “slanting” the texts are methods that could be used automatically by a Natural Language Generation (NLG) system. A pilot study and a main experiment are described which use emotion self-reporting methods from Psychology. Al...

The purpose of this study was to explore the influence of the affective decision-making on tactical behavior in soccer players under the age of 15 years old. The System of Tactical Assessment in Soccer (FUT-SAT) was used to as...
متن کاملApplying Explanation-based Learning to Control and Speeding-up Natural Language Generation
This paper presents a method for the automatic extraction of subgrammars to control and speeding-up natural language generation NLG. The method is based on explanation-based learning EBL. The main advantage for the proposed new method for NLG is that the complexity of the grammatical decision making process during NLG can be vastly reduced, because the EBL method supports the adaption of a NLG ...
