▼ Emotion analysis aims to recognise emotions such as
anger, joy and trust from texts. It is a trending topic because it
can be applied in important areas such as marketing, healthcare and
customer services. Current, state-of-the-art, solutions are based
around supervised models that are trained using examples that have
been manually annotated. This is subjective, expensive and
time-consuming. This thesis explores the problem of multi-label
emotion classification of tweets. The task is particularly
difficult as tweets are notoriously awkward to work with as they
are noisy in nature and may contain unstructured text,
abbreviations, slang, acronyms, emoticons and incorrect grammar and
spelling. Furthermore, single tweets, even if they have none of
these issues, are usually short and often do not contain much
context, making them difficult to work with. To overcome some of
these problems we propose a new type of corpus and investigate
strategies for linking news articles to create news-stories and
linking tweets to create tweet-stories and hence linking the
news-stories to the tweets-stories to create a corpus of linked
tweets that contain
emotion-bearing markers. We describe the
process of collecting tweets and news articles, the annotation
process and the problems therein, and show that a
thematically-linked corpus aids the
classification process.
Preprocessing is an important step in
classification. However,
there is no standard set of steps. As such, we analyse a number of
preprocessing steps, evaluating each to establish its contribution
and, thus, form the best combination of steps to carry forward into
later experiments. We consider both Arabic and English tweets, and
whilst there are well-established Natural Language Processing (NLP)
tools for English, the same is not true for Arabic. As part of this
work we also evaluate a new Arabic tagger specifically for tweets,
and a stemmer, and compare the results to other methods. The major
contribution of this thesis is a new type of classifier based on
conditional probabilities that are used to build a lexicon of
scores that indicate the importance of a word to a specific
emotion. We show that incorporating automatic mechanisms for
autocorrection, by removing words that are unhelpful in an
emotion,
and calculating individual thresholds for each
emotion, improves
classifier performance. To the best of our knowledge, this is the
first time these ideas have been explored. The results of this
classifier, named CENTEMENT, are compared to other common
algorithms such as K-nearest Neighbours (KNN), Support Vector
Machine (SVM), and two different configurations of neural networks.
We also evaluate a number of other datasets and demonstrate that
our algorithm is robust and performs consistently well. The results
are encouraging: our approach led to appreciably better performance
than currently established classifiers and also many of the latest
state-of-the-art classifiers. To further test the robustness of the
classifier, it was entered into the worldwide
emotion-
classification…

▼ As the social network gains more popular, people would like to find the related information from social nets to figure out some signs before or after an incident occurred. In this thesis, we would like to classify the
emotion of Chinese articles correctly and find the negative
emotion. And we even aim to find out event cause and place that are extracted from Facebook or article content. Based on the lexicon based method we consider some factors like word relationship and event which effect the
emotion in the article to propose a negative
emotion classification rule, a normal sentence
classification method and a negative
emotion degree calculation scheme to support
emotion classification and find out the degree of negative
emotion.
In the experiment, many posts from Facebook are extracted as test data and training data to verify accuracy of the proposed methods. Experimental results show that the proposed methods perform better compared to the traditional methods SVM and Naïve Bayesian (20% and 12%). In addition, the proposed methods also extract the events and places related to the posts. Then we apply the methods to two real cases, public
emotion about an arbitrary event and personalization. Hence, the proposed methods are not only able to extract the posts with negative emotions, but also able to find out the cause of the events and related place in the posts.

▼ Speech-based
emotion recognition is a research field of growing interest, which aims to identifyhuman emotions based on speech. The main contributions of this thesis revolve around the use of verbaland non-verbal vocalisation cues for speech-based
emotion recognition, which is complementary topopularly used acoustic features for both
emotion classification and continuous
emotion predictiontasks.This thesis initially explores the supra-segmental feature representations generated by thevectorisation of the Mel-frequency cepstral coefficient frame level feature distribution models foremotion
classification, which is an alternative to the default acoustic supra-segmental features. Next,the thesis focuses on the development of approaches for incorporating the emotional saliency andpronunciation of verbal cues (lexical features) for
emotion classification.Apart from lexical features, non-verbal vocal events such as laughter, sighs, and expressions suchas “grrr!”, “oh!”, and disfluency patterns including filled pauses such as “hmm” are identified withinthe linguistic feature domain. These elements of speech are instrumental in portraying both voluntaryand involuntary emotions in human communication. Despite this, they have not been used for automaticemotion recognition in a completely automatic manner, and their effect on
emotion recognition has notyet been adequately analysed. This thesis proposes and develops several models to utilise emotionallysalient linguistic cues, including non-verbal gestures and disfluencies, implicitly for emotionclassification and continuous
emotion prediction tasks. This is achieved without the need for taggedand time aligned non-verbal vocalisation labels. The proposed novel approaches allow emotionrecognition systems to utilise linguistic information independent of manual transcripts or automaticspeech recognition.Inspired by the analysis of the influence of non-verbal vocalisations for continuous emotionprediction, as well as
emotion psychology concepts related to the symbolic reference function of suchexpressions, this thesis proposes a novel view of continuous
emotion prediction leading to thedevelopment of a transparent framework for continuous
emotion prediction. This framework ismodelled as a time-invariant filter array for continuous
emotion prediction, and distinct from thepointwise regression mapping taken by traditional approaches.All proposed approaches are extensively evaluated on state-of-the-art
emotion databases.

▼ We present an automated new approach for facial expression recognition of seven emotions. The main objective of this thesis is building a model that can classify the spontaneous facial expressions, rather than the acted ones, and apply this model images and videos. Moreover, we will investigate if a combination of more than one image feature descriptor will improve the classification rate, and the efficacy of the texture descriptors on videos sequences. Three types of texture features from static images were combined: Local Binary Patterns (LBP), Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) and Dense Speeded Up Robust Features (D-SURF). The resulting features are classified using random forests. The use of random forests allows for the identification of the most important feature types and facial locations for emotion classification. Regions around the eyes, forehead, sides of the nose and mouth are found to be most significant. We classified the important features with random forest and Support Vector Machines. We also found that the classification performance became better than using all of the extracted facial features. We achieved better than state-of-the-art accuracies using multiple texture feature descriptors. Current emotion recognition datasets comprise posed portraits of actors displaying emotions. To evaluate the recognition algorithms on spontaneous facial expressions, we introduced an unposed dataset called the ``Emotional Faces in the Wild'' (eLFW), a citizen-labelling of 1310 faces from the Labelled Faces in the Wild data. To collect this data, we built a website and asked citizens to label photos according to the emotion displayed. The citizens were also asked to label a selection of KDEF faces. We evaluated the common misclassification of the faces, similar to what people do; machine algorithms perform worst regarding distinguishing between sad, angry and fearful expressions. We describe a new weighted voting algorithm for multi-calcification, in which the predictions of the classifiers trained on pairs of classes are combined with weights learned using an evolutionary algorithm. This method yields superior results, particularly for the hard-to-distinguish emotions. The method was applied to the DynEmo video database. We investigated some methods to smooth the classifier predictions in order to exploit temporal continuity emotions and therefore classification error. Several smoothing techniques were investigated and optimised, and we found that the simple moving average and linear fit Lowess smoothing performed best.

▼ Alors que l’utilisation de l’électro-encéphalographie (EEG) a longtemps été confinée au domaine médical, l’intérêt dansles interfaces cerveau-machine basées sur ces signaux s’est développé au cours de ces dernières années pour les applications grand public. Les enregistrements EEG ont tout particulièrement retenu l’attention des chercheurs dans le domaine de l’informatique affective, affective computing, dans le but de réaliser des travaux sur l’analyse du comportement humain, et ce plus particulièrement sur la reconnaissance automatique des émotions. Comparé à d’autres modalités utilisées dans de précédents travaux sur la reconnaissance des émotions, telles que la parole, les expressions du visage, les mouvements et d’autres signaux physiologiques, l’EEG a l’avantage de pouvoir capturer des informations liées à l’état émotionnel interne qui n’est pas forcément traduit par des manifestations extérieures observables. La reconnaissance des émotions est habituellement envisagée sous l’angle d’un problème de
classification où le choix de caractéristiques appropriées est essentiel dans le but de s’assurer une précision de reconnaissance satisfaisante. Une de nos problématiques repose sur le fait que, dans le cadre des caractéristiques EEG, un consensus n’a toujours pas été réalisé sur un ensemble standard de caractéristiques qui permettrait de garantir une distinction performante des émotions d’un sujet humain. Nous explorons une grande variété de caractéristiques temporelles, spectrales et spatiales pouvant être potentiellement utiles dans le cadre de la reconnaissance des émotions et nous les comparons à d’autres, exposées dans de précédents travaux, en utilisant un protocole expérimental rigoureux. Nous évaluons plus particulièrement l’efficacité de plusieurs caractéristiques spectrales, n’ayant pas été précédemment proposées pour le problème de la
classification. Nos résultats montrent que les nouvelles caractéristiques spectrales que nous proposons sont compétitives comparées à celles précédemment utilisées. Elles nous amènent de plus vers une configuration mono-canal performante de la reconnaissance des émotions, ce qui implique un fort potentiel pour les applications destinées au grand public. Au sein des corpus existants et accessibles destinés à la reconnaissance des émotions en informatique affective, l’aspect de la dynamique de l’émotion n’est pas pris en considération. Ces corpus présentent également un manque de variabilité dans les données et ne possèdent les enregistrements que d’un nombre limité de participants. Ces raisons nous ont menées à proposer un corpus multi-modal destiné à l’analyse de l’état émotionnel qui s’attache à répondre au mieux à certaines faiblesses des corpus existants. Nous employons différentes stratégies d’élicitation de l’émotion, par le biais de l’utilisation de stimuli visuels et audio-visuels, et nous proposons également une approche novatrice dans la stratégie d’annotation de l’émotion ressentie, en intégrant en plus de la retranscription de l’émotion ressentie de manière…

▼ This study investigated the automatic recognition of emotion in English and Arabic text. We perform experiments with a new method of classification for recognising emotions using the Prediction by Partial Matching (PPM) character-based text compression scheme. These experiments involve both document level classification (whether a text of document is emotional or not) and also fine-grained classification such as recognising Ekman's six basic emotions (Anger, Disgust, Fear, Happiness, Sadness, Surprise). Experimental results with three English datasets (the LiveJournal's blogs dataset, Aman's blogs dataset, and Alm's fairy tales dataset) show that the new method signicantly outperforms the traditional word-based text classification methods. The results show that the PPM compression-based classification method is able to distinguish between emotional and non-emotional text with high accuracy, between texts involving Happiness and Sadness emotions (with 79.1% accuracy for Aman's dataset and 76.9% for Alm's datasets) and texts involving Ekman's six basic emotions for the LiveJournal dataset (87.4% accuracy). Results also show that the method outperforms traditional feature-based classifiers such as Naive Bayes and SMO in most cases in terms of accuracy, precision, recall and F-measure. In order to see how well the classifier performs on another language not related to English and also in order to create another Arabic benchmark corpus for future emotion classification experiments, we created a new Iraqi Arabic Emotion Corpus (IAEC) dataset annotated according to Ekman's basic emotions. This dataset is composed of Facebook posts written in the Iraqi dialect. We evaluated the quality of this dataset using four external judges which resulted in an average inter-annotation agreement of 0.751. We then explored six different supervised machine learning methods to test the new dataset. We used standard Weka classifiers ZeroR, J48, Naive Bayes, Multinomial Naive Bayes for Text and SMO. We compared these results with our compression-based classifier PPM. Our study reveals that the PPM classifier significantly outperforms the other classifiers for the new dataset achieving the highest results in terms of accuracy, precision, recall, and Fmeasure. We also designed and investigated another new classification technique motivated by information divergence to recognize Ekman's emotions in text. We used the three datasets written in the English Language and the one in the Arabic Language to evaluate the new method. The new method was able to achieve a better result for Alm's dataset in terms of accuracy, precision, recall and F-measure than PPM and standard Weka classifiers. The new method also outperforms all standard Weka classifiers for all four datasets. Finally, these results show that our proposed technique is promising as an alternative technique for English and Arabic text categorization in general.

▼ The aim of the study is to predict the emotional gist of the image, namely the level of arousal (low or high) and kind of
emotion (positive or negative) that the image elicits from the pattern of eye movements of a human observer. Images were selected based on their arousal and valence ratings. The observers (n=32) viewed the images in a random order and their pattern of eye movements was recorded with a head-mounted eye tracker. Features pertaining to saccades and fixation were extracted. Feature values obtained from the eye scan pattern data were fed into a random forest algorithm in MATLAB. Performing 10 fold cross-validation yielded a
classification efficiency of 57% on low versus high arousal images, and 56% on positive versus negative valence images (a priori probability=50%). Several dynamic features were added to improve the efficiency though the effort proved to be unfruitful. Finally, the images were checked to see if they really show any difference by training them through a Convolutional Neural Network. The model showed a
classification efficiency of 85% based on Valence and 75% based on Arousal.

▼ Continuous affective self-reports are intrusive and expensive to acquire, forcing researchers to use alternative labels for the construction of their predictive models. The most predominantly used labels in literature are continuous perceived affective labels obtained using external annotators. However an increasing body of research indicates that the relation between expressed
emotion and experienced
emotion might not be as apparent as previously assumed. Retrospective self-reports provided by participants do capture experienced
emotion, but models applied on these labels suffer from the lack of continuous annotations during training. In this work, we aim to answer whether this lack of temporal information can be remedied by using continuous external annotations as proxies for experienced
emotion over time. Furthermore, we investigate whether weakly-supervised models can generate accurate continuous annotations to reduce the annotation burden for large datasets. Our results indicate that external annotation sequences bear little significant information for the prediction of self-reports. However, forcing models to reflect changes in external annotations by training models in a multitask fashion improves model performance, suggesting that such temporal supervision helps models to distinguish relevant segments in input data. Besides this, we find that weakly-supervised models can to a certain extent capture changes over time, but in general yield poor results compared to fully-supervised models.

▼ O propósito desta dissertação é a discussão do reconhecimento de emoção na voz. Para este fim, criou-se uma base de dados validada de discurso emocional simulado Português, intitulada European Portuguese Emotional Discourse Database (EPEDD) e foram operados algoritmos de classificação estatística nessa base de dados.
EPEDD é uma base de dados simulada, caracterizada por pequenos discursos (5 frases longas, 5 frases curtas e duas palavras), todos eles pronunciados por 8 atores—ambos os sexos igualmente representados—em 9 diferentes emoções (raiva, alegria, nojo, excitação, apatia, medo, surpresa, tristeza e neutro), baseadas no modelo de emoções de Lövheim.
Concretizou-se uma avaliação de 40% da base de dados por avaliadores inexperientes, filtrando 60% dos pequenos discursos, com o intuito de criar uma base de dados validada. A base de dados completa contem 718 instâncias, enquanto que a base de dados validada contém 116 instâncias. A qualidade média de representação teatral, numa escala de a 5 foi avaliada como 2,3. A base de dados validada é composta por discurso emocional cujas emoções são reconhecidas com uma taxa média de 69,6%, por avaliadores inexperientes. A raiva tem a taxa de reconhecimento mais elevada com 79,7%, enquanto que o nojo, a emoção cuja taxa de reconhecimento é a mais baixa, consta com 40,5%.
A extração de características e a classificação estatística foi realizada respetivamente através dos softwares Opensmile e Weka. Os algoritmos foram operados na base dados original e na base de dados avaliada, tendo sido obtidos os melhores resultados através de SVMs, respetivamente com 48,7% e 44,0%. A apatia obteve a taxa de reconhecimento mais elevada com 79,0%, enquanto que a excitação obteve a taxa de reconhecimento mais baixa com 32,9%.
The purpose of this dissertation is to discuss speech emotion recognition. It was created a validated acted Portuguese emotional speech database, named European Portuguese Emotional Discourse Database (EPEDD), and statistical classification algorithms have been applied on it.
EPEDD is an acted database, featuring 12 utterances (2 single-words, 5 short sentences and 5 long sentences) per actor and per emotion, 8 actors, both genders equally represented, and 9 emotions (anger, joy, disgust, excitement, fear, apathy, surprise, sadness and neutral), based on Lövheim’s emotion model. We had 40% of the database evaluated by unexperienced evaluators, enabling us to produce a validated one, filtering 60% of the evaluated utterances. The full database contains 718 instances, while the validated one contains 116 instances. The average acting quality of the original database was evaluated, in a scale from 1 to 5, as 2,3. The validated database is composed by emotional utterances that have their emotions recognized on average at a 69,6% rate, by unexperienced judges. Anger had the highest recognition rate at 79,7%, while disgust had the lowest recognition rate at 40,5%.
Feature extraction and statistical classification algorithms were performed respectively applying Opensmile…

▼ Dans le vieillissement « sain », la préférence pour les stimuli positifs augmente par rapport aux stimuli négatifs. Ce phénomène est appelé « effet de positivité » et peut être observé au niveau comportemental et cérébral. L'objectif principal de cette thèse a été de caractériser les effets de l'âge sur les traitements émotionnels afin d'améliorer notre compréhension des effets de positivité. L'objectif sous-jacent a été d'évaluer dans quelles conditions ces effets peuvent conduire à une plus grande vulnérabilité des personnes âgées face à des situations menaçantes. Une première étude en électroencéphalographie a révélé que l'engagement attentionnel pour des scènes naturelles négatives diminue avec l'âge quel que soit leur niveau d'activation dans une tâche de catégorisation affective. A l'inverse, ce dernier reste inchangé pour les situations positives, conduisant à une réduction des biais de négativité. Une deuxième étude en électroencéphalographie, dont le paradigme était similaire à la première étude, a mis en évidence que les biais de négativité restent préservés avec l'âge lorsque l'évaluation des scènes s'effectue sur la dimension de « tendance à l'action ». Une troisième étude révèle que l'attention volontaire sur les situations d'intérêt des personnes âgées (positives) et sur les processus d'évaluation modulés par l'âge est nécessaire à l'émergence des effets de positivité. Parallèlement à ces travaux, une méthodologie innovante est proposée pour la classification d'états émotionnels des personnes jeunes et âgées sur la base de leurs signaux électroencéphalographiques. Nous avons obtenu des résultats encourageants qui suggèrent la possibilité cette méthode pour implémenter des interfaces cerveau-machine pour protéger les personnes âgées d'une éventuelle vulnérabilité en raison des effets de positivité. L'ensemble de ces travaux suggèrent que les effets de positivité sont les conséquences de changements sur le plan motivationnel de l'individu âgé, touchant principalement les processus d'évaluation émotionnel. La personne âgée régulerait ses émotions et diminuerait l'impact des émotions négatives lorsque d'autres motivations plus prioritaires sont absentes.
With aging, the preference for positive stimuli increases compared to negative stimuli. This is called “positivity effect” and it may be observed in both behavior and brain activity. The main goal of this work was to characterized age effects on emotional processing to improve our understood of this positivity effect. The second goal was to evaluate in which conditions these effects could make older people more vulnerable when they are confronted to threatening situations. A first EEG study revealed that the attentional engagement decreased with age for negative stimuli, regardless of their activation level, in an affective categorization task. Conversely, the processing of positive stimuli was preserved with age and, consequently, a reduction of the negativity bias was observed. In a second EEG study, using a similar paradigm to study 1 with the…

▼ Automatic
emotion detection in text is concerned with using natural language processing techniques to recognize emotions expressed in written discourse. Endowing computers with the ability to recognize emotions in a particular kind of text, microblogs, has important applications in sentiment analysis and affective computing. In order to build computational models that can recognize the emotions represented in tweets we need to identify a set of suitable
emotion categories. Prior work has mainly focused on building computational models for only a small set of six basic emotions (happiness, sadness, fear, anger, disgust, and surprise). This thesis describes a taxonomy of 28
emotion categories, an expansion of these six basic emotions, developed inductively from data. This set of 28
emotion categories represents a set of fine-grained
emotion categories that are representative of the range of emotions expressed in tweets, microblog posts on Twitter.
The ability of humans to recognize these fine-grained
emotion categories is characterized using inter-annotator reliability measures based on annotations provided by expert and novice annotators. A set of 15,553 human-annotated tweets form a gold standard corpus, EmoTweet-28. For each
emotion category, we have extracted a set of linguistic cues (i.e., punctuation marks, emoticons, emojis, abbreviated forms, interjections, lemmas, hashtags and collocations) that can serve as salient indicators for that
emotion category.
We evaluated the performance of automatic
classification techniques on the set of 28
emotion categories through a series of experiments using several classifier and feature combinations. Our results shows that it is feasible to extend machine learning
classification to fine-grained
emotion detection in tweets (i.e., as many as 28
emotion categories) with results that are comparable to state-of-the-art classifiers that detect six to eight basic emotions in text. Classifiers using features extracted from the linguistic cues associated with each category equal or better the performance of conventional corpus-based and lexicon-based features for fine-grained
emotion classification.
This thesis makes an important theoretical contribution in the development of a taxonomy of
emotion in text. In addition, this research also makes several practical contributions, particularly in the creation of language resources (i.e., corpus and lexicon) and machine learning models for fine-grained
emotion detection in text.

▼ Rapid development in sensing technologies has
facilitated increased design of
more affective and ubiquitous
sensing environments for humans. Through affective
sensing of
human emotions and behaviors, devices can respond accordingly
to
provide the users with a better human-computer interaction
experience. While
affective sensing provides electronic devices
with a better understanding of humans,
ubiquitous sensing provides
humans with a better knowledge of their environments.
Wireless
sensor networks (WSNs) have been proposed for different
ubiquitous
sensing scenarios over the decades, and in-home monitoring is one
of
the successful examples that have been widely deployed.
Algorithms designed to
optimize such in-home sensor networks can
also be mapped to other domains.
In particular, the problem of
optimizing coverage in directional sensor networks
can be mapped
to the problem of predicting the structure of proteins, an
important
challenge for bioinformatics research that is needed for
effective drug
therapy design. In this dissertation, we contribute
algorithms to enable affective
and ubiquitous sensing systems as
well as algorithms to improve protein structure
prediction.
Accurate acquisition and interpretation of human physical signals
are two essential
components for affective sensing. In the first
part of this dissertation,
we develop a speech-based emotion
classification system, which uses several one against-
all support
vector machines with a threshold-based fusion mechanism to
combine
the individual outputs. A thorough performance evaluation of this
system
is provided for different test scenarios, including
classification using noisy speech
samples and samples from real
users. Results show that the system achieves a
six-emotion
decision-level correct classification rate of 80% for an acted
dataset
with clean speech. Applications for this proposed emotion
sensing system range
from behavior studies to context-aware
electronics design.
Fundamental frequency (F0) is one of the
speech features used for emotion
classification. However, noise is
inevitably included during the speech signal’s
acquisition. We
present a novel noise resilient F0 detection algorithm named BaNa
that combines the approaches of harmonic ratios and Cepstrum
analysis. We test
the performance of the proposed BaNa algorithm
using real human speech samples
corrupted by different types of
noise. Results show that for almost all types of
noise and
signal-to-noise ratio values investigated, BaNa achieves the lowest
Gross
Pitch Error rate among all the classic and state-of-the-art
algorithms.
In the second part of this dissertation, we study the
aforementioned in-home
monitoring problem, considering energy
efficiency for both the monitoring and
transmission processes. In
particular, we evaluate the performance of different
camera and
motion sensor placement strategies, and formulate optimization
problems
to achieve the minimum energy consumption, longest
network lifetime, or the
lowest monetary cost. In the image…

▼ The present study investigated autonomic nervous system (ANS) patterning during experimentally manipulated
emotion. Film clips previously shown to induce amusement, anger, contentment, disgust, fear, and sadness, in addition to a neutral control, were presented to 34 college-aged subjects while electrodermal activity, blood pressure and electrocardiogram (ECG) were recorded as was self-reported affect. Mean and mean successive difference of inter-beat interval were derived from the ECG. Pattern
classification analysis revealed
emotion-specific patterning for all
emotion conditions except disgust. Discriminant function analysis was used to describe the location of discrete emotions within a dimensional affective state space, for both self-report and ANS activity. Findings suggest traditional dimensional
emotion models accurately describe the state space for self-reported
emotion, but may require modification in order to accurately describe the state space for ANS activity during discrete emotions. Proposed modifications are consistent with the adoption of a discrete-dimensional hybrid model as well as current trends in
emotion theory.

▼ The autonomic specificity of
emotion is intrinsic for many major theories of
emotion. One of the goals of this study was to validate a standardized set of music clips to be used in studies of
emotion and affect. This was accomplished using self-reported affective responses to 40 music pieces, noise, and silence clips in a sample of 71 college-aged individuals. Following the music selection phase of the study; the validated music clips as well as film clips previously shown to induce a wide array of emotional responses were presented to 50 college-aged subjects while a montage of autonomic variables were measured. Evidence for autonomic discrimination of
emotion was found via pattern
classification analysis replicating findings from previous research. It was theorized that groups of individuals could be identified based upon individual response specificity using cluster analytic techniques. Single cluster solutions for all
emotion conditions indicated that stimulus response stereotypy of emotions was more powerful than individual patterns. Results from pattern
classification analysis and cluster analysis support the concept of autonomic specificity of
emotion.

▼ Various assistive technologies are available for
people with communication disorders. While these technologies are
quite useful for moderate to severe movement impairments, certain
progressive diseases can cause a total locked-in state (TLIS).
These conditions include amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS),
neuromuscular disease (NMD), and several other disorders that can
cause impairment between the neural pathways and the muscles. For
people in a locked-in state (LIS), brain-computer interfaces (BCIs)
may be the only possible solution. BCIs could help to restore
communication to these people, with the help of external devices
and neural recordings.
The present dissertation investigates
the role of latency jitter on BCIs system performance and, at the
same time, the possibility of affect recognition using BCIs. BCIs
that can recognize human affect are referred to as affective
brain-computer interfaces (aBCIs). These aBCIs are a relatively new
area of research in affective computing. Estimation of affective
states can improve human-computer interaction as well as improve
the care of people with severe disabilities. The present work used
a publicly available dataset as well as a dataset collected at the
Brain and Body Sensing Lab at K-State to assess the effectiveness
of EEG recordings in recognizing affective states.
This work
proposed an extended classifier-based latency estimation (CBLE)
method using sparse autoencoders (SAE) to investigate the role of
latency jitter on BCI system performance. The recent emergence of
autoencoders motivated the present work to develop an SAE based
CBLE method. Here, the newly-developed SAE-based CBLE method is
applied to a newly-collected dataset. Results from our data showed
a significant (p < 0.001) negative correlation between BCI
accuracy and estimated latency jitter. Furthermore, the SAE-based
CBLE method is also able to predict BCI accuracy.
In the
aBCI-related investigation, this work explored the effectiveness of
different features extracted from EEG to identify the affect of a
user who was experiencing affective stimuli. Furthermore, this
dissertation reviewed articles that used the Database for
Emotion
Analysis Using Physiological Signals (DEAP) (i.e., a publicly
available affective database) and found that a significant number
of studies did not consider the presence of the class imbalance in
the dataset. Failing to consider class imbalance creates misleading
results. Furthermore, ignoring class imbalance makes comparing
results between studies impossible, since different datasets will
have different class imbalances. Class imbalance also shifts the
chance level. Hence, it is vital to consider class bias while
determining if the results are above chance. This dissertation
suggests the use of balanced accuracy as a performance metric and
its posterior distribution for computing confidence intervals to
account for the effect of class imbalance.

▼ The affective aspect of music (popularly known as music mood) is a newly emerging metadata type and access point to music information, but it has not been well studied in information science. There has yet to be developed a suitable set of mood categories that can reflect the reality of music listening and can be well adopted in the Music Information Retrieval (MIR) community. As music repositories have grown to an unprecedentedly large scale, people call for automatic tools for music
classification and recommendation. However, there have been only a few music mood
classification systems with suboptimal performances, and most of them are solely based on the audio content of the music. Lyric text and social tags are resources independent of and complementary to audio content but have yet to be fully exploited.
This dissertation research takes up these problems and aims to 1) summarize fundamental insights in music psychology that can help information scientists interpret music mood; 2) identify mood categories that are frequently used by real-world music listeners, through an empirical investigation of real-life social tags applied to music; 3) advance the technology in automatic music mood
classification by a thorough investigation on lyric text analysis and the combination of lyrics and audio. Using linguistic resources and human expertise, 36 mood categories were identified from the most popular social tags collected from last.fm, a major Western music tagging site. A ground truth dataset of 5,296 songs in 18 mood categories were built with mood labels given by a number of real-life users. Both commonly used text features and advanced linguistic features were investigated, as well as different feature representation models and feature combinations. The best performing lyric feature sets were then compared to a leading audio-based system. In combining lyric and audio sources, both methods of feature concatenation and late fusion (linear interpolation) of classifiers were examined and compared. Finally, system performances on various numbers of training examples and different audio lengths were compared. The results indicate: 1) social tags can help identify mood categories suitable for a real world music listening environment; 2) the most useful lyric features are linguistic features combined with text stylistic features; 3) lyric features outperform audio features in terms of averaged accuracy across all considered mood categories; 4) systems combining lyrics and audio outperform audio-only and lyric-only systems; 5) combining lyrics and audio can reduce the requirement on training data size, both in number of examples and in audio length.
Contributions of this research are threefold. On methodology, it improves the state of the art in music mood
classification and text affect analysis in the music domain. The mood categories identified from empirical social tags can complement those in theoretical psychology models. In addition, many of the lyric text features examined in this study have never been formally…

▼ Estudos atuais na área de Interação Humano-Computador evidenciam a importância de se considerar aspectos emocionais na interação com sistemas computacionais. Acredita-se que ao permitir agentes artificiais identificar emoções de usuários, em uma interação humano-computador, torna-se possível induzir e despertar emoções a fim de estimulá-los em suas atividades. Um dos grandes desafios dos pesquisadores em Interação humano-computador é prover sistemas capazes de reconhecer, interpretar e reagir de modo inteligente e sensível às emoções do usuário, para atender aos requisitos do maior número possível de indivíduos; um dos caminhos que se apresenta é o desenvolvimento de sistemas flexíveis. O principal objetivo de se promover essa interação emotiva é contribuir para o aumento da coerência, consistência e credibilidade das reações e respostas computacionais providas durante a interação humana via interface humano-computador. Nesse contexto, surge a
oportunidade de explorar sistemas computacionais capazes de identificar e inferir o estado emocional do usuário em tempo de execução. Este projeto tem como objetivo desenvolver e avaliar um modelo que possa: i.) identificar o estado emocional do usuário; ii.) prover um mecanismo de persuasão com vistas a mudar o estado emocional do usuário (com um estudo de caso em player de música) e; iii.) explorar a abordagem flexível na persuasão (de acordo com o estado emocional particular de cada usuário) através de mecanismos persuasivos que poderão variar entre um player de música, jogos e/ou vídeos. Assim, ao longo do estudo, o modelo baseado em Comitê de Classificação se mostrou eficiente na identificação das emoções básicas (alegria, aversão, medo, neutro, raiva, surpresa e tristeza) com média de acurácia superior a 80% e, ainda, observou-se a satisfação dos usuários mediante a aplicação do modelo com o player de música.
Current studies in the field of Human-Computer Interaction
highlight the relevance of emotional aspects while interacting with computers systems. It is believed that allowing intelligent agents to identify users emotions, they can induce and awaken emotions in order to stimulate them while interacting with computers. A major challenge for researchers in human-computer interaction is to provide systems capable of recognizing, interpreting and reacting intelligently and sensitively to the emotions of the user, to meet the requirements of the largest possible number of individuals. One of the ways presented in this project is the development of flexible systems to meet a large number of emotions/behaviors. The main objective of promoting this emotional interaction is to contribute to increasing the coherence, consistency and credibility of reactions and computational responses provided during human interaction via human-computer interface. In this context, the opportunity arises to explore computational systems able to identify and infer the
emotional state of the user at runtime. This project aims to develop and evaluate a model that can: i.) identify the…

▼ Emotion has intrigued researchers for generations.
This fascination has permeated the engineering community,
motivating the development of affective computational models for
the
classification of affective states. However, human
emotion
remains notoriously difficult to interpret computationally both
because of the mismatch between the emotional cue generation (the
speaker) and perception (the observer) processes and because of the
presence of complex emotions, emotions that contain shades of
multiple affective classes. Proper representations of
emotion would
ameliorate this problem by introducing multidimensional
characterizations of the data that permit the quantification and
description of the varied affective components of each utterance.
Currently, the mathematical representation of
emotion is an area
that is under-explored.; Research in
emotion expression and
perception provides a complex and human-centered platform for the
integration of machine learning techniques and multimodal signal
processing towards the design of interpretable data
representations. The focus of this dissertation is to provide a
computational description of human
emotion perception and combine
this knowledge with the information gleaned from
emotion
classification experiments to develop a mathematical
characterization capable of interpreting naturalistic expressions
of
emotion utilizing a data representation method called
Emotion
Profiles.; The analysis of human
emotion perception provides an
understanding of how humans integrate audio and video information
during emotional presentations. The goals of this work are to
determine how audio and video information interact during the human
emotional evaluation process and to identify a subset of the
features that contribute to specific types of
emotion perception.
We identify perceptually-relevant feature modulations and
multi-modal feature integration trends using statistical analyses
of the evaluator reports.; The trends in evaluator reports are
analyzed using
emotion classification. We study evaluator
performance using a combination of Hidden Markov Models (HMM) and
Naive Bayes (NB)
classification. The HMM
classification is used to
predict individual evaluator emotional assessments. The NB
classification provides an estimate of the consistency of the
evaluator's mental model of
emotion. We demonstrate that evaluator
reports created by evaluators with higher levels of estimated
consistency are more accurately predicted than evaluator reports
from evaluators that are less consistent.; The insights gleaned
from the
emotion perception and
classification studies are
aggregated to develop a novel emotional representation scheme,
called
Emotion Profiles (EP). The design of the EPs is predicated
on the knowledge that naturalistic
emotion expressions can be
approximately described using one or more labels from a set of
basic emotions. EPs are a quantitative measure expressing the
degree of the presence or absence of a set of basic emotions within
an expression. They avoid the need for a hard-labeled…

▼ People's emotions can be gleaned from their text using
machine learning techniques to build models that exploit large
self-labeled
emotion data from social media. Further, the
self-labeled
emotion data can be effectively adapted to train
emotion classifiers in different target domains where training data
are sparse.Emotions are both prevalent in and essential to most
aspects of our lives. They influence our decision-making, affect
our social relationships and shape our daily behavior. With the
rapid growth of
emotion-rich textual content, such as microblog
posts, blog posts, and forum discussions, there is a growing need
to develop algorithms and techniques for identifying people's
emotions expressed in text. It has valuable implications for the
studies of suicide prevention, employee productivity, well-being of
people, customer relationship management, etc. However,
emotion
identification is quite challenging partly due to the following
reasons: i) It is a multi-class
classification problem that usually
involves at least six basic emotions. Text describing an event or
situation that causes the
emotion can be devoid of explicit
emotion-bearing words, thus the distinction between different
emotions can be very subtle, which makes it difficult to glean
emotions purely by keywords. ii) Manual annotation of
emotion data
by human experts is very labor-intensive and error-prone. iii)
Existing labeled
emotion datasets are relatively small, which fails
to provide a comprehensive coverage of
emotion-triggering events
and situations.This dissertation aims at understanding the
emotion
identification problem and developing general techniques to tackle
the above challenges. First, to address the challenge of
fine-grained
emotion classification, we investigate a variety of
lexical, syntactic, knowledge-based, context-based and
class-specific features, and show how much these features
contribute to the performance of the machine learning classifiers.
We also propose a method that automatically extracts syntactic
patterns to build a rule-based classifier to improve the accuracy
of identifying minority emotions. Second, to deal with the
challenge of manual annotation, we leverage
emotion hashtags to
harvest Twitter "big data" and collect millions of self-labeled
emotion tweets, the labeling quality of which is further improved
by filtering heuristics. We discover that the size of the training
data plays an important role in
emotion identification task as it
provides a comprehensive coverage of different
emotion-triggering
events/situations. Further, the unigram and bigram features alone
can achieve a performance that is competitive with the best
performance of using a combination of ngram, knowledge-based and
syntactic features. Third, to handle the paucity of the labeled
emotion datasets in many domains, we seek to exploit the abundant
self-labeled tweet collection to improve
emotion identification in
text from other domains, e.g., blog posts, fairy tales. We propose
an effective data selection approach to iteratively select source…

(more)
▼ Recognition of emotional state and diagnosis of trauma related illnesses such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) using speech signals have been active research topics over the past decade. A typical
emotion recognition system consists of three components: speech segmentation, feature extraction and
emotion identification. Various speech features have been developed for emotional state recognition which can be divided into three categories, namely, excitation, vocal tract and prosodic. However, the capabilities of different feature categories and advanced machine learning techniques have not been fully explored for
emotion recognition and PTSD diagnosis. For PTSD assessment, clinical diagnosis through structured interviews is a widely accepted means of diagnosis, but patients are often embarrassed to get diagnosed at clinics. The speech signal based system is a recently developed alternative. Unfortunately,PTSD speech corpora are limited in size which presents difficulties in training complex diagnostic models. This dissertation proposed sparse coding methods and deep belief network models for emotional state identification and PTSD diagnosis. It also includes an additional transfer learning strategy for PTSD diagnosis. Deep belief networks are complex models that cannot work with small data like the PTSD speech database. Thus, a transfer learning strategy was adopted to mitigate the small data problem. Transfer learning aims to extract knowledge from one or more source tasks and apply the knowledge to a target task with the intention of improving the learning. It has proved to be useful when the target task has limited high quality training data. We evaluated the proposed methods on the speech under simulated and actual stress database (SUSAS) for emotional state recognition and on two PTSD speech databases for PTSD diagnosis. Experimental results and statistical tests showed that the proposed models outperformed most state-of-the-art methods in the literature and are potentially efficient models for emotional state recognition and PTSD diagnosis.

▼ Regulacija čustev je ključna spretnost v življenju. Napoveduje splošno prilagoditev, kakovost socialnih odnosov, uspešnost in psihično ter fizično zdravje. Pri otrocih je spodbujanje spretnosti regulacije čustev še posebno pomembno, saj vzorce regulacije prenesejo v nadaljnje soočanje z življenjem in so najdovzetnejši za učenje. V pričujoči raziskavi smo želeli preveriti, ali ima trening regulacije čustev za učence 5. razreda pozitivne učinke na njihovo sposobnost regulacije čustev, socialne spretnosti, vedenja pozunanjanja in ponotranjanja, socialne težave, težave s pozornostjo in šolsko kompetentnost. 15 učencev, starih 10 in 11 let, je bilo udeleženih v 11-tedenskem treningu regulacije čustev (enkrat tedensko po dve šolski uri). 23 učencev je sodelovalo v kontrolni skupini. Pri obeh skupinah smo pred in po treningu ocenili preučevane spremenljivke. Vprašalnike so izpolnili učenci, njihovi starši in razredničarke. Rezultati so pokazali, da
trening ni imel pomembnega učinka na regulacijo čustev, sovražno gospodovalnost in sebičnost (socialna nespretnost), vedenja pozunanjanja (agresivnost, delinkventnost), socialne težave, težave s pozornostjo in šolsko kompetentnost (uspeh, količina učenja in trud). Pomemben učinek treninga pa se je pokazal pri treh spremenljivkah: sociabilnosti, socialni občutljivosti in vedenjih ponotranjanja (depresivnost, anksioznost, somatske pritožbe), ocenjenih s strani staršev. Učenci eksperimentalne skupine in njihovi starši so menili, da je bil trening učinkovit, da so se učenci nekaj naučili in da naučeno občasno tudi uporabljajo. Predvsem pa so v treningu uživali in vsako srečanje jim je predstavljalo možnost za pogovor in ventiliranje. Učenci so prejeli material in izročke o ključnih vsebinah s treningov z namenom večje vključitve vsebin v njihov vsakdanjik. Predstavljene so omejitve raziskave, uporabna vrednost in predlogi za nadaljnje raziskovanje.
Emotion regulation is a key skill in
life. It predicts a general adjustment, quality of social relations, success and mental as well as physical health. Encouragement of the emotion regulation skill in children is especially important, since they transfer the regulation patterns to further confrontations in life and are the most susceptible to learning. In the following research we wanted to examine if emotion regulation training has positive effects on emotion regulation ability, social skills, extrinsic or intrinsic behaviour, social problems, problems with attention and school competence of 5th grade pupils. 15 pupils (aged 10 and 11 years) participated in emotion regulation training that lasted 11 weeks (once a week for two periods). 23 pupils participated in the control group. We evaluated the studied variables in both groups before and after the training. The questionnaires were filled out by the pupils themselves, their parents and class teachers. The results showed that the training did not have an important
effect on emotion regulation, hostile domination and selfishness (social ineptness), extrinsic behaviour (aggressiveness,…

▼ The goal of this study is to classify a dataset of songs according to their
emotion and to understand the impact that the artist and genre have on the accuracy of the
classification model. This will help market players such as Spotify and Apple Music to retrieve useful songs in the right context.
This analysis was performed by extracting audio and non-audio features from the DEAM dataset and classifying them. The correlation between artist, song genre and other audio features was also analyzed. Furthermore, the
classification performance of different machine learning algorithms was evaluated and compared, e.g., Support Vector Machines (SVM), Decision Trees, Naive Bayes and K-Nearest Neighbors.
We found that Support Vector Machines attained the highest performance when using either only Audio features or a combination of Audio Features and Genre. Namely, an F-measure of 0.46 and 0.45 was achieved, respectively. We concluded that the Artist variable was not impactful to the
emotion of the songs.
Therefore, by using Support Vector Machines with the combination of Audio and Genre variables, we analyzed the results and created a dashboard to visualize the incorrectly classified songs.
This information helped to understand if these variables are useful to improve the
emotion classification model developed and what were the relationships between them and other audio and non-audio features.

▼ For as long as scholars have been writing about the human mind they have been speculating on the nature of affect and emotion. Currently, scientists agree that affect and emotions are tools that evolved for dealing with the challenges of life. Scientists also agree that both affect and emotions involve physiologically-mediated changes in heart rate, respiration, activity of the sweat glands, etc., although the nature of these changes have been debated for over a century. Classical theories hypothesize that certain emotion categories have biological essences resulting in physiological "fingerprints" that are specific to one category and distinct from other categories. An alternative hypothesis, what we call the "populations" hypothesis, suggests that there are no fingerprints for emotion categories. Rather, categories name a population of variable instances that are context sensitive. We present data from two meta-analyses of over 350 published studies of physiological reactivity during instances of emotion and affect in which we directly test whether there are specific biobehavioral patterns that form a distinct "fingerprint" for affect and emotion categories. We utilized traditional univariate meta-analysis alongside multivariate pattern classification to search for fingerprints. In our emotion meta-analysis, both traditional univariate meta-analytic techniques and multivariate pattern classification failed to reveal evidence of distinct autonomic fingerprints for emotion categories. Instead, we found tremendous variation within and across emotion categories. We also found that experimental context explained a significant portion of the variability in many comparisons. We found significant within category variability in our affect meta-analysis as well. However, in our multivariate pattern classification analysis, we were able to classify affect categories slightly above chance, but found no evidence of specific patterns in our univariate results. Overall, our findings did not suggest robust fingerprints for either affect or emotion. Rather, pervasive variation across and within categories suggested that both affect and emotion may be more accurately described as abstract categories that describes a population of variable instances.

▼ Teoretično ozadje: Stres predstavlja prilagodljiv odziv na neke zunanje situacije, ki lahko vodijo k spremembam. Slednje se lahko kažejo na vedenjskem, fizičnem ali mentalnem področju. Stres se pojavlja tudi pri nadarjenih učencih, ki se verjetneje s stresom spoprijemajo tako, da uporabljajo strategije spoprijemanja, ki so osredotočene na problem, za njih pa sta značilni tudi psihološka in socialna regulacija. Obstaja premalo raziskav, ki se osredotočajo na preučevanje različnih vidikov stresa in uravnavanja čustev pri nadarjenih učencih. Metoda: V raziskavo smo vključili mladostnike (n = 98), stare od 13 do 15 let. Od tega je bilo 52 nadarjenih in 46 ostalih učencev. Uporabili smo štiri vprašalnike: Ček lista stresorjev, Vprašalnik Načini spoprijemanja s stresom (WCQ I), Vprašalnik rezilientnosti in Vprašalnik emocionalne kompetentnosti (ESCQ). Rezultati: Nadarjeni učenci se soočajo z enakimi vrstami stresorjev kot učenci, ki niso identificirani
kot nadarjeni. Učenke ne doživljajo več stresa kot učenci. Med nadarjenimi učenci in učenci, ki niso identificirani kot nadarjeni, pri spoprijemanju s stresom, ki je osredotočeno na problem, ni razlik. Nadarjeni učenci so bolj odporni na stres kot pa učenci, ki niso identificirani kot nadarjeni. Med nadarjenimi in ostalimi učenci v uravnavanju čustev ne prihaja do razlik. Zaključki: Raziskovanje stresa in emocionalne inteligentnosti pri nadarjenih učencih je ključno za pridobitev novih spoznanj na tem področju. S pridobljenimi spoznanji bomo lažje razumeli omenjeni vzorec mladostnikov in na takšen način prispevali k izboljšanju njihovega duševnega zdravja. Pomembno je, da o teh aktualnih izsledkih obveščamo starše, vzgojitelje, učitelje in druge pomembne ljudi v življenju nadarjenih mladostnikov. Ti posamezniki lahko namreč vplivajo na doživljanje stresa, soočanje s stresom, odpornost na stres ter na uravnavanje čustev pri mladostnikih.
Theory: Stress is defined as an adaptable
reaction to any outer situations leading to changes which can be indicated in the behavioral, physical or mental fields. Moreover, gifted pupils are faced with stress and they presumably cope with stress by applying strategies of confrontation with the focus on a problem characterized by a typical psychological and social regulation. However, there are not enough researches aimed at researching different viewpoints of stress and emotion regulations in connection with gifted pupils. Method: Our research comprised adolescents (n=98) aged between 13 and 15, however, 52 of them were gifted pupils and 46 other pupils. Four different questionnaires were used: stressor checklist, Ways of coping Questionnaire (WCQ I), Resilience Questionnaire and Emotional Skills and Competence Questionnaire (ESCQ). Results: Gifted pupils face with the same stressors as other pupils who are not identified as gifted. Female pupils do not experience more stress than male pupils. However, there are no
differences between gifted pupils and pupils not identified as gifted when coping with stress focused on a problem. Gifted…

▼ V doktorski nalogi obravnavamo problematiko prepoznave emocionalnega govora iz avdio posnetkov. V okviru naloge je za izločanje značilk uporabljenih več različnih širin kratkočasovnih procesnih oken, z namenom pridobitve optimalne širine in doseganje najvišje stopnje prepoznave. V dosedanjih raziskavah se največkrat pojavljajo procesna okna širine 20 in 100ms [6], kjer uporaba krajšega okna omogoča boljšo časovno ločljivost, a slabšo frekvenčno ločljivost, medtem ko daljša okna dvignejo frekvenčno ločljivost in poslabšajo časovno ločljivost. V tej točki je definiran nov postopek, ki združi prednosti uporabe ožjih in širših oken in izkorišča prednosti dinamičnega prilagajanja časovne in frekvenčne ločljivosti pri posameznih značilkah. Postopek, poimenovan ESRA, definira koncept večločljivostnega izločanja, izbire in uporabe značilk in pri tem poskrbi za uporabo večločljivostnega koncepta pri razpoznavanju končnih razredov, kjer se za procesiranje
uporabi del akustičnega signala, ki vsebuje zvočni govor. Dodatno višanje nivoja uspešnosti prepoznave je doseženo z uporabo normalizacije uporabljenih značilk ter glajenja vrednosti značilk v postprocesiranju. Dodana vrednost pri postopku optimizacije uspešnosti razpoznave je v definiranju algoritma zamenjave končnih razredov, s katerim je bilo doseženo zvišanje uspešnosti najoptimalnejših rezultatov prepoznavanja emocionalnih posnetkov. Za vrednotenje vpliva algoritma na optimizacijo nivoja razpoznave emocionalnega govora sta uporabljeni dve različni območji poimenovani kratko- in dolgočasovno območje, na podlagi katerih poteka izločanje in ocenjevanje od emocij odvisnih značilk govora, z namenom njihove uporabe pri razpoznavanju emocij v govoru. Pri tem sta za potrditev delovanja algoritma uporabljena dva načina generiranja podsetov značilk ter za klasifikacijo štirje različni klasifikatorji (MLP, RF, KNN, GMM). Uporabljeni emocionalni posnetki so del emocionalne govorne baze
Interface [18], ki vsebuje igrane posnetke osnovnih šestih emocionalnih razredov (Ekman-ovih velikih šest) in nevtralni govor. Najvišja dosežena uspešnost prepoznave večločljivostnega pristopa je znašala 88,6%, kar je za 3,8% presegalo najboljšo uspešnost enonivojskega pristopa oziroma je bila uspešnost prepoznave za 24,9% višja v relativnem smislu. Podane so primerjave z rezultati uspešnosti dosedanjih raziskav na uporabljeni bazi.
The presented thesis treats the problem of recognizing emotional speech from audio recordings. In order to obtain the optimum processing window width for feature extraction and to achieve the highest level of recognition rates, several different short term processing window widths have been evaluated. In previous studies, the most common process window widths used, were between 20 and 100ms [6], where a shorter window provides better time resolution but poor frequency resolution, while the longer window lifts frequency resolution and worsens time
resolution. At this point, we define a new procedure that combines the advantages of narrower and wider windows and takes…

▼ Uravnavanje čustev ima ključno vlogo v zdravem, prilagojenem delovanju človeka in je predmet raziskovanja mnogih avtorjev, ki povezujejo spoznanja psiholoških in bioloških disciplin. V sodobni literaturi je na omenjenem področju raziskovanja prevladalo stališče, da se čustvenega razvoja ne da razumeti izven okvirja intimnih odnosov. V tem kontekstu predstavlja klasična teorija navezanosti temelj za razumevanje razvoja sposobnosti za uravnavanje čustev. Namen magistrskega dela je preučiti uravnavanje čustev in navezanost pri odraslih. Zanimalo nas je, ali se različni slogi navezanosti povezujejo s težavami v uravnavanju čustev. Raziskali smo tudi, ali se kaže spol kot moderator povezanosti slogov ne-varne navezanosti s čustvenim zavedanjem. Vzorec je zajemal 229 udeležencev. Za pridobivanje podatkov smo uporabili Lestvico ugotavljanja težav z uravnavanjem čustev (DERS), vprašalnik Doživljanje odnosov z bližnjimi (ECR-R) in Vprašalnik medosebnih
odnosov (RQ). V raziskavi smo ugotovili, da se varna navezanost negativno povezuje s težavami v uravnavanju čustev, medtem ko se sloga ne-varne navezanosti (anksiozne, izogibajoče) in težave v uravnavanju čustev povezujejo pozitivno. Glede vloge spola kot moderatorja učinka povezanosti ne-varnih slogov navezanosti s čustvenim zavedanjem smo na podlagi rezultatov ugotovili, da imajo izogibajoče navezani moški več težav s čustvenim zavedanjem kot izogibajoče navezane ženske. Hipoteze o učinku spola pri moderiranju povezanosti anksiozne navezanosti s čustvenim zavedanjem na našem vzorcu nismo podprli.
Emotion regulation plays a key role in the healthy, adjusted functioning of a human and is the subject of research of many authors who find a correlation between the knowledge of psychological and biological disciplines. In the contemporary literature, the aforementioned field of research has been dominated by the view that emotional development cannot be understood beyond the scope of
intimate relationships. In this context, classical attachment theory is the foundation for understanding the development of emotion regulation abilities. The purpose of the Master's thesis is to study emotion regulation and attachment in adults. We were interested if different attachment styles are associated with difficulty in regulating emotions. We also examined whether gender is being seen as a moderator of the connection between styles of unsafe attachment with emotional awareness. The sample included 229 participants. To obtain data we used The Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS), The Experiences in Close Relationships-Revised (ECR-R) questionnaire and The Relationship Questionnaire (RQ). The study found that secure attachment correlates negatively with emotion regulation problems, whereas non-secure attachment styles (anxious and avoidant attachment styles) and difficulties in emotion regulation correlate positively. With regard to the role of gender as a moderator
of the connection between the association of non-secure attachment styles with emotional awareness, we found that…

▼ The speech stress and emotion recognition and classification technology has a potential to provide significant benefits to the national and international industry and society in general. The accuracy of an automatic emotion speech and emotion recognition relays heavily on the discrimination power of the characteristic features. This work introduced and examined a number of new linear and nonlinear feature extraction methods for an automatic detection of stress and emotion in speech. The proposed linear feature extraction methods included features derived from the speech spectrograms (SS-CB/BARK/ERB-AE, SS-AF-CB/BARK/ERB-AE, SS-LGF-OFS, SS-ALGF-OFS, SS-SP-ALGF-OFS and SS-sigma-pi), wavelet packets (WP-ALGF-OFS) and the empirical mode decomposition (EMD-AER). The proposed nonlinear feature extraction methods were based on the results of recent laryngological studies and nonlinear modelling of the phonation process. The proposed nonlinear features included the area under the TEO autocorrelation envelope based on different spectral decompositions (TEO-DWT, TEO-WP, TEO-PWP-S and TEO-PWP-G), as well as features representing spectral energy distribution of speech (AUSEES) and glottal waveform (AUSEEG). The proposed features were compared with features based on the classical linear model of speech production including F0, formants, MFCC and glottal time/frequency parameters. Two classifiers GMM and KNN were tested for consistency. The experiments used speech under actual stress from the SUSAS database (7 speakers; 3 female and 4 male) and speech with five naturally expressed emotions (neutral, anger, anxious, dysphoric and happy) from the ORI corpora (71 speakers; 27 female and 44 male). The nonlinear features clearly outperformed all the linear features. The classification results demonstrated consistency with the nonlinear model of the phonation process indicating that the harmonic structure and the spectral distribution of the glottal energy provide the most important cues for stress and emotion recognition in speech. The study also investigated if the automatic emotion recognition can determine differences in emotion expression between parents of depressed adolescents and parents of non-depressed adolescents. It was also investigated if there are differences in emotion expression between mothers and fathers in general. The experiment results indicated that parents of depressed adolescent produce stronger more exaggerated expressions of affect than parents of non-depressed children. And females in general provide easier to discriminate (more exaggerated) expressions of affect than males.

▼ Music mood recognition by machine continues to attract attention from both academia and industry. This thesis explores the hypothesis that the music
emotion problem is circular, and is a primary step in determining the efficacy of circular regression as a machine learning method for automatic music mood recognition. This hypothesis is tested through experiments conducted using instances of the two commonly accepted models of affect used in machine learning (categorical and two-dimensional), as well as on an original circular model proposed by the author. Polygonal approximations of circular regression are proposed as a practical way to investigate whether the circularity of the annotations can be exploited. An original dataset assembled and annotated for the models is also presented. Next, the architecture and implementation choices of all three models are given, with an emphasis on the new polygonal approximations of circular regression. Experiments with different polygons demonstrate consistent and in some cases significant improvements over the categorical model on a dataset containing ambiguous extracts (ones for which the human annotators did not fully agree upon). Through a comprehensive analysis of the results, errors and inconsistencies observed, evidence is provided that mood recognition can be improved if approached as a circular problem. Finally, a proposed multi-tagging strategy based on the circular predictions is put forward as a pragmatic method to automatically annotate music based on the circular model.

▼ With advances in information and communication technologies over the past few years, the amount of information stored in the form of electronic text documents has been rapidly growing. Since the human abilities to effectively process and analyze large amounts of information are limited, there is an increasing demand for tools enabling to automatically analyze these documents and benefit from their emotional content. These kinds of systems have extensive applications. The purpose of this work is to design and implement a system for identifying expression of emotions in Czech texts. The proposed system is based mainly on machine learning methods and therefore design and creation of a training set is described as well. The training set is eventually utilized to create a model of classifier using the SVM. For the purpose of improving
classification results, additional components were integrated into the system, such as lexical database, lemmatizer or derived keyword dictionary. The thesis also presents results of text documents
classification into defined
emotion classes and evaluates various approaches to categorization.

▼ The essence of User Experience (UX) is to improve the quality of the user’s interaction with and perception of the product or service offered. Measuring user perception of these interactions has been subjective and challenging to quantify in objective terms. Biometric sensors provide real time inferences of the user’s emotional affect. Facial recognition software provides an additional data layer to infer the emotional affect during each interaction. Answers to subjective questions such as: How the user feels about this interaction? What interaction caused the user frustration? And what interactions resulted in enjoyable experiences? Can be ascertained and provide deeper insights into improving the user experience. Data from biometric sensors can infer and validate whether the UX strategy is meeting the intended goals and objectives.
Decision makers can use these insights to quickly improve and gain a deeper understanding of the user’s preferences and perceptions, thereby increasing profitability and user loyalty. These insights will be measured by: time spent on tasks, interactions, and emotional affect throughout the session on digital media assets.
