1) Affective computing aims to expand human emotional intelligence to machines by creating socially intelligent machines that can respond appropriately according to the situation and interlocutor.
2) There are two main approaches to modeling emotions in affective computing: discrete theories that identify basic emotions like Ekman's six emotions, and continuous theories that describe emotions along dimensions of arousal and valence.
3) Empath's goal is to recognize emotions from speech regardless of language, which presents challenges of combining speech processing with emotion recognition from voice cues alone. Empath is developing methods to extract pitch, intensity, and speech rate from voice samples to train models to classify emotions.
Abstract: Speech technology and systems in human computer interaction have witnessed a stable and remarkable advancement over the last two decades. Today, speech technologies are commercially available for an unlimited but interesting range of tasks. These technologies enable machines to respond correctly and reliably to human voices, and provide useful and valuable services. This thesis presents the characteristics of emotion in voice and on that basis propose a new method to detecting emotion in a simplified way by using a prosodic features and spectral from speech. We classify seven emotions: happy, anger, fear, disgust, sadness and neutral inner state. This thesis discusses the method to extract features from a recorded speech sample, and using those features, to detect the emotion of the subject. Every emotion comprises different vocal parameters exhibiting diverse characteristics of speech, which is used for preliminary classification. Then Mel-Frequency Cepstrum Coefficient (MFCC) method was used to extract spectral features. The MFCC coefficients were again trained by Artificial Neural Network (ANN) which then classifies the input in particular emotional class.

Thelxinoë: Recognizing Human Emotions Using Pupillometry and Machine Learningmlaij
In this study, we present a method for emotion recognition in Virtual Reality (VR) using pupillometry. We analyze pupil diameter responses to both visual and auditory stimuli via a VR headset and focus on extracting key features in the time-domain, frequency-domain, and time-frequency domain from VR-generated data. Our approach utilizes feature selection to identify the most impactful features using Maximum Relevance Minimum Redundancy (mRMR). By applying a Gradient Boosting model, an ensemble learning technique using stacked decision trees, we achieve an accuracy of 98.8% with feature engineering, compared to 84.9% without it. This research contributes significantly to the Thelxinoë framework, aiming to enhance VR experiences by integrating multiple sensor data for realistic and emotionally resonant touch interactions. Our findings open new avenues for developing more immersive and interactive VR environments, paving the way for future advancements in virtual touch technology.

A New Model: Advancing Organizational Security Through PeacebuildingMichele Chubirka
Why is the security industry so full of fail? We spend millions of dollars on firewalls, IPS, IDS, DLP, professional penetration tests and assessments, and vulnerability and compliance tools, and at the end of the day, the weakest link is the user and his or her inability to make the right choices. It's enough to make a security engineer cry.
The one thing you can depend upon in an enterprise is that many of your users, even with training, will still make the wrong choices. They will violate BYOD restrictions, click on links they shouldn't, respond to phishing scams, open documents without thinking, post too much information on Twitter and Facebook, use their pet's name as passwords, etc. But what if this isn't because users hate us or are too stupid? What if all our ignored policies and procedures regarding the best security practices have more to do with our failure to understand modern neuroscience and the human mind's resistance to change?
Humans are wired to be emotional beings. Emotions influence most of our decisions, good and bad. In failing to understand how this is at the root of user non-compliance, no matter how much money we spend on expensive hardware and software, we will fail to achieve the goal of good organizational security.
Harnessing the Semantic Space of Facebook Feeling Tags
In 2013 Facebook launched a feature allowing users to add a feeling tag to their posts as part of their daily interactions online. Our research leverages the text accompanying all such volunteered feeling tags in an effort to map the semantic space of ‘Facebook feelings’ as they are catalogued by the crowd. By letting the data speak for itself, a folksonomy of feelings reveal temporal and social patterns in the most commonly shared feelings. Unlike many such studies, however, we do not only focus on examining the patterns emerging from big data, but also put the expressed feelings to work using machine learning towards both the classification and detection of emotions. This paper first demonstrates that feelings expressed online self-organize along the same lines (valence and arousal dimensions) experts in psychology and emotions have organized them for decades. As we enter the debate of classifying human emotions, our analysis directly contrasts Facebook’s manifestation of feelings with prior theoretical proposals to detect both similarities and differences from past assumptions. In line with the ‘exhibitional’ nature of Facebook, we illustrate that ‘extreme’ feelings, such as excitement and anger, are expressed in even more extreme levels of both valence and arousal. Beyond contrasting the folksonomy of feelings with dimensional mappings of emotions proposed by past research, we further utilize artificial intelligence techniques towards building a test version of an automatic ‘Feelings Meter’ able to detect feelings from text.

David papini escape emotional intelligence trapsDavid Papini
What happens to emotional IQ in a daily practice to pursue freedom? Answer is in the way we use language and body.
In the session attendees will learn how to connect emotional intelligence theory with clean linguistic and cognitive practices. They will experiment simple techniques to leverage emotions in any goal-oriented setting, be it their work, their teamwork or their relationships. They will learn also to convert very common misconceptions about emotions in powerful, mindset changing and practical behaviors. The tools that we’ll use in the session are language and body. We will learn that language can be effective or not in emotional intelligence, depending on how we use it (and we’ll see the four main uses of language) and also that speech and body are not alternative means of getting things done and goals achieved.

Advancements in technology unveil a myriad of electrical and electronic breakthroughs geared towards efficiently harnessing limited resources to meet human energy demands. The optimization of hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems plays a pivotal role in utilizing natural resources effectively. This initiative not only benefits humanity but also fosters environmental sustainability. The study investigated the design optimization of these hybrid systems, focusing on understanding solar radiation patterns, identifying geographical influences on solar radiation, formulating a mathematical model for system optimization, and determining the optimal configuration of PV panels and pumped hydro storage. Through a comparative analysis approach and eight weeks of data collection, the study addressed key research questions related to solar radiation patterns and optimal system design. The findings highlighted regions with heightened solar radiation levels, showcasing substantial potential for power generation and emphasizing the system's efficiency. Optimizing system design significantly boosted power generation, promoted renewable energy utilization, and enhanced energy storage capacity. The study underscored the benefits of optimizing hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems for sustainable energy usage. Optimizing the design of solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems as examined across diverse climatic conditions in a developing country, not only enhances power generation but also improves the integration of renewable energy sources and boosts energy storage capacities, particularly beneficial for less economically prosperous regions. Additionally, the study provides valuable insights for advancing energy research in economically viable areas. Recommendations included conducting site-specific assessments, utilizing advanced modeling tools, implementing regular maintenance protocols, and enhancing communication among system components.
Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
2. Introduction
AI and technology more and more vital in life and society
Almost every domain field relies on it: medical, entertainment..
computers not only actors in technology but also in society
How to make more sociable machines? Many researchers agree that
emotions are part of the answer
3. Emotional intelligence
In social interactions, emotions carry pieces of information: express one's intentions,
interests in the conversation and state of mind
understanding those emotions can improve the interaction between the parties
Isen: emotions can have an infuence on the thinking and reasoning
some tasks are more suitable for some emotions
greeting happiness, comfort compassion
=> exploit and optimize the abilities of the interlocutor by infuencing their emotion
Not only social context: humans need emotions for their survival and adaptation to society
Ex: fear of dangerous situations makes people avoid the danger
understanding the emotions, their origin and consequences
=
emotional intelligence
Tis intelligence allows an individual to make beter decisions for their social
and professional integration.
4. Afective computing
Domain of human-machine interaction
Goal: expand the human emotional intelligence to the machines
overcome the emotional and social gap between human and computers
create socially intelligent machines capable to respond
approprietaly according to the situation and the interlocutor
5. Afective computing:
Discrete approach
Lots of theories based on both discrete and continuous approaches
positive/negative emotions, primary/secondary...
Discrete theory: Paul Ekman
- 6 basic emotions: happiness, anger, fear, neutral, sadness and disgust
- the rest of the emotions can be computed as a combination of those basic
ones
Strong points: universality of the emotion recognition
a basis of a small number of emotions
Weak points: more negative emotions than positive
multiple expressions for one emotion
6. Afective computing:
Continuous approach
Russell's theory:
All of the emotions can be
described with only arousal and
valence
Strong point: only two dimensions,
theoritically one could extract all of
the emotions with this
Weak point: how to measure those
parameters? Which parameters
correspond to arousal? And
intensity?
7. Empath's challenges
Goal: recognize emotions regardless of the language
Strong points:
●
A lot of researches and theories about affective computing, not much practice
●
a lot of studies been done in speech processing, and we can communicate
with machines
Challenges:
●
Affective computing mostly done on facial expression
The universality that Ekman proved is for facial expression only
●
The speech processing that we know is based on words, not emotions. We
know which parts of the spectogram, of the vocal properties take into account
for speech synthesis or recognition, but not emotions
Challenge: Combine both speech and
emotions
8. Empath's approach
Pre-processing the data:
- pitch
- intensity
- speech rate
However, some more or less major obstacles come in the way:
- how to extract those information accuratly and quickly (real-time)
- choice of the model: Random Forest, NN, LSTM...
- still lots of debates about the accuracy of these findings
- individual characteristics (tone, pitch, natural intensity...)
- context and culture
Need of data: 4 emotions, 5 expressions each, 2
genders, 3 types of voices (child, adult, senior), 1 culture:
240000 samples needed
one solution: adding prior information
9. What's next?
“Soon enough it was discovered that it was difficult to find specific voice cues
that could be used as reliable indicators of vocal expressions.Whereas listeners
seem to be accurate in decoding emotions from voice cues, scientists have
been unable to identify a set of cues that reliably discriminate among emotions.”
(Petri Laukka – Vocal Expression of Emotion. Descrete-emotions and Dimensional Accounts – 2004)
Is it a lost cause then?
Not one right answer, but rather a combination of answers,
provide accurate additional information.
Emotions don't carry the entire message and information, they
carry another type of information, different from the one carried in
speech and words.
