Towards Emotion Recognition in Human Computer Interaction

Abstract

The recognition of human emotions by technical systems is regarded as a problem of pattern recognition. Here methods of machine learning are employed which require substantial amounts of 'emotionally labeled' data, because model based approaches are not available. Problems of emotion recognition are discussed from this point of view, focusing on problems of data gathering and also touching upon modeling of emotions and machine learning aspects. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2013.
