In this paper, based on the analyzing of the selecting and distinguishing characteristics of cognitive thinking, the product design elements are analyzed with the theories of Kansei Engineering, and the corresponding mathematic model for the analysis is developed based on the quantification-I theory to quantitatively discuss the relationship between product form design elements and the psycholo...

We present a scalable and incremental approach for creating interactive image-based walkthroughs from a dynamically growing collection of photographs of a scene. Prior approaches, such as [16], perform a global scene reconstruction as they require the knowledge of all the camera poses. These are recovered via batch processing involving pairwise image matching and structure from motion (Sfm), on...

I present an extension of Kansei mediated communication in the field of cultural computing. I propose to do so by implementing Cultural Computing concept and enriching it with Kansei Mediated Interaction. I present some inspiration for my approach in terms of culture and then discuss them. I relate my work to the Eastern and to the Western world, i.e. I use cultural examples from Japan and Engl...

In this paper, we propose a visualization method of music impression in facial expression to represent emotion. We apply facial expression to represent the complicated and mixed emotions. This method can generate facial expression corresponding to impressions of music data by measurement of relationship between each basic emotion for facial expression and impressions extracted from music data. ...

In this paper, we discuss ‘design experience’ is one of the factors which differ between designers and users by the result of Kansei quality evaluation. In this research, we want to clarify design experience grows what kind of characters, and how these characters influence Kansei quality evaluation by two experiments. The first one was let the subjects categorize many images of benches, based o...
