Abstract

Social problems, such as economic instability, aging population, heightened competition, and changes in personal values, might become more serious in the near future. Affective computing has received much attention in the scholarly community as a possible solution to potential social problems. Accordingly, we examined domestic and global knowledge structure, major keywords, current research status, international research collaboration, and network for each major keyword, focusing on keywords related to affective computing. We searched for articles on a specialized academic database (Scopus) using major keywords and carried out bibliometric and network analyses. We found that China and the United States (U.S.) have been active in producing knowledge on affective computing, whereas South Korea lags well behind at around 10%. Major keywords surrounding affective computing include computing, processing, affective analysis, research, user modeling categorizing recognitions, and psychological analysis. In terms of international research collaboration structure, China and the U.S. form the largest cluster, whereas other countries like the United Kingdom, Germany, Switzerland, Spain, and Canada have been strong collaborators as well. Contrastingly, South Korea's research has not been diverse and has not been very successful in producing research outcomes. For the advancement of affective computing research in South Korea, the present study suggests strengthening international collaboration with major countries, including the U.S. and China and diversifying its research partners.

경제 불안정과 고령화, 경쟁격화 및 개인 가치관의 변화 등 사회 문제가 점점 심각해질 가능성이 있다. 이러한 상황에서 이를 해결 가능한 방안 중 하나로써 감성컴퓨팅 관련 연구가 증가하고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 감성컴퓨팅 연구 키워드를 중심으로 국내 및 글로벌 연구의 지식구조와 주요 키워드, 연구생산 현황 및 국가간 협력관계 및 주요 키워드별 네트워크 등을 파악하였다. 이를 위해 전문 학술데이터 베이스(Scopus)로부터 해당 키워드를 중심으로 논문을 검색하였으며, 서지분석과 네트워크 분석을 실시하였다. 중국과 미국이 Affective computing 분야에서 지식생산이 활발하였고, 한국은 약 10% 정도로 저조한 상황이다. 주요 키워드는 Affective computing을 중핵으로 주로 컴퓨팅 처리 및 감성분석, 인식을 분류하는 연구 및 사용자들의 모델링, 심리 분석이 주요 연구 키워드이다. 국가 간 협력구조는 중국과 미국이 가장 큰 클러스터를 형성하고 있고, 그 외에 영국, 독일, 스위스, 스페인, 캐나다 등이 협력을 주도하고 있다. 한국의 연구협력은 다양하지 않고 연구생산도 저조한 결과를 보였다. Affective computing 분야의 연구발전을 위해 미국, 중국 등 주요국과의 연구협력 강화와 연구파트너의 다양화를 위한 시사점을 결론으로 제언하였다.
