The purpose of this study is to develop more accurate and robust emotion prediction neural network (EPNN) model by combining heart rate variability (HRV) and neural network. For the sake of improving the prediction performance more reliably, the proposed EPNN model is based on various types of activation functions like hyperbolic tangent, linear, and Gaussian functions, all of which are embedded in hidden nodes to improve its performance. In order to verify the validity of the proposed EPNN model, a number of HRV metrics were calculated from 20 valid and qualified participants whose emotions were induced by using money game. To add more rigor to the experiment, the participants' valence and arousal were checked and used as output node of the EPNN. The experiment results reveal that the F-Measure for Valence and Arousal is 80% and 95%, respectively, proving that the EPNN yields very robust and well-balanced performance. The EPNN performance was compared with competing models like neural network, logistic regression, support vector machine, and random forest. The EPNN was more accurate and reliable than those of the competing models. The results of this study can be effectively applied to many types of wearable computing devices when ubiquitous digital health environment becomes feasible and permeating into our everyday lives.

Recently, creation and sharing of information make progress actively through the SNS(Social Network Service) such as twitter, facebook and so on. It is necessary to extract the knowledge from aggregated information and data mining is one of the knowledge based approach. Especially, emotion analysis is a recent subdiscipline of text classification, which is concerned with massive collective intelligence from an opinion, policy, propensity and sentiment. In this paper, We propose the emotion prediction method, which extracts the significant key words and related key words from SNS paragraph, then predicts the emotion using these extracted emotion features.

Creation and Sharing of information which is structured data as well as various unstructured data. makes progress actively through the spread of mobile. Recently, Big Data extracts the semantic information from SNS and data mining is one of the big data technique. Especially, the general emotion analysis that expresses the collective intelligence of the masses is utilized using large and a variety of materials. In this paper, we propose the emotion prediction system architecture which extracts the significant keywords from social network paragraphs using n-gram and Korean morphological analyzer, and predicts the emotion using SVM and these extracted emotion features. The proposed system showed 82.25% more improved recall rate in average than previous systems and it will help extract the semantic keyword using morphological analysis.

An accurate prediction of emotion is a very important issue for the sake of patient-centered medical device development and emotion-related psychology fields. Although there have been many studies on emotion prediction, no studies have applied the heart rate variability and neuro-fuzzy approach to emotion prediction. We propose ANFEP(Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy System for Emotion Prediction) HRV. The ANFEP bases its core functions on an ANFIS(Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System) which integrates neural networks with fuzzy systems as a vehicle for training predictive models. To prove the proposed model, 50 participants were invited to join the experiment and Heart rate variability was obtained and used to input the ANFEP model. The ANFEP model with STDRR and RMSSD as inputs and two membership functions per input variable showed the best results. The result out of applying the ANFEP to the HRV metrics proved to be significantly robust when compared with benchmarking methods like linear regression, support vector regression, neural network, and random forest. The results show that reliable prediction of emotion is possible with less input and it is necessary to develop a more accurate and reliable emotion recognition system.

This study aims to examine the effects of CF about learners' English writing through FL on English improvement and the factors that influence class satisfaction. For achieving this purpose, response to CF and feelings about CF were selected as predictive variables. It is intended to investigate how these variables predict learners' satisfaction. A total of 94 university students were placed into two groups: 48 experimental group, who received CF on their writing through FL, and 46 control group given traditional instruction. All the participants took pre/post tests including writing tasks, and the experimental group completed a questionnaire after the instructional treatment. The findings indicated that FL affected English improvement and both response to CF and feelings about CF predicted class satisfaction. Based on the findings, this study sheds light on the implications of how to manage the FL class efficiently.

By conducting multiple regression analysis, we analyzed the major independent factors affecting user convenience and emotional factors, and identified the important functional elements in the design of the VR device, so that the functional elements to be developed can be grasped in advance. As a result of the study, satisfaction of handling of VR bicycle and satisfaction of speed control by paddling were considered as the most important technical factors as independent factors which have the greatest influence on user convenience and emotional factor among technical satisfaction. Also, it is possible to increase the probabilities of successful design by setting a model that predicts user convenience and the emotional part from the technical factors.

Predictive analysis is based on a probabilistic learning algorithm called pattern recognition or machine learning. Therefore, if users want to extract more information from the data, they are required high statistical knowledge. In addition, it is difficult to find out data pattern and characteristics of the data. This study conducted statistical data analyses and visual data analyses to supplement prediction analysis's weakness. Through this study, we could find some implications that haven't been found in the previous studies. First, we could find data pattern when adjust data selection according as splitting criteria for the decision tree method. Second, we could find what type of data included in the final prediction model. We found some implications that haven't been found in the previous studies from the results of statistical and visual analyses.

Recently, research on predictive systems using deep learning and machine learning of artificial intelligence is being actively conducted. Due to the development of artificial intelligence, the role of the investment manager is being replaced by artificial intelligence, and due to the higher rate of return than the investment manager, algorithmic trading using artificial intelligence is becoming more common. Algorithmic trading excludes human emotions and trades mechanically according to conditions, so it comes out higher than human trading yields when approached in the long term. The deep learning technique of artificial intelligence learns past time series data and predicts the future, so it learns like a human and can respond to changing strategies. In particular, the LSTM technique is used to predict the future by increasing the weight of recent data by remembering or forgetting part of past data. fbprophet, an artificial intelligence algorithm recently developed by Facebook, boasts high prediction accuracy and is used to predict stock prices and cryptocurrency prices. Therefore, this study intends to establish a sound investment culture by providing a new algorithm for automatic cryptocurrency trading by analyzing the actual value and difference using fbprophet and presenting conditions for accurate prediction.
