This paper purposes to develop an artificial emotion reflecting emotional features contains situations, time, and characteristics, also to develop an interactive character having this artificial emotion with a smart phone. The artificial emotion has an Emotion Module and Drive Module for expressing emotion according to external emotional stimulus and internal drive. The Emotion Module administrates emotions according to time, characteristic, interrelation between different emotions. The Drive Module controls sensitivities of emotion according to changing drives over long time. Also due to defence mechanism for expressing emotions, emotions are processed by two pathways: The first pathway which is affected by the Emotion Module and the Drive Module, and the second pathway that is not to be done. We developed an interactive character having the artificial emotion with this structure using smart phone. And we simulated the artificial emotion what differences there are according to situations, characteristic, and time under same input conditions. The result of this paper has meanings developing the interactive character having the artificial emotion actually, and making it possible to personalize an artificial emotion with expressing the artificial emotion using smart phone.

This paper looks to extract personality traits from the drama characters within a drama script, and to apply it them to a character that has an artificial emotion. The method of applying the personality of a character from a drama script is as follows. First, we separate a drama script into several pieces, by the characters therin. Next, we extract emotion-related terms by matching morphemes analysis and by using an emotion terms database. Next, we analyze a dominant emotion using extracted emotion terms. Finally last, we apply the analyzed dominant emotion to an equation pertaining to artificial emotion. We made progress in developing user evaluation that features blind testing, to verify that the artificial emotion character bears the personality of a drama character. We apply three drama character personalities to artificial emotion characters bearing the same appearance. The user had to match three artificial emotion characters and drama characters according to personality. The users had a high percentage of correct answers, thus confirming the efficacy of our method of applying a personality, using information from a drama script.

본 논문은 선행 연구된 인공감정 모델에 성격 유형별로 정서적 특징을 반영한 캐릭터의 인공감정을 설계하여 적용하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 캐릭터의 인공감정은 성격 유형별로 정서적 특징을 생성에서 소멸까지의 시간과 크기로 표현할 수 있다. 따라서 정서의 유지시간, 정서적 경험을 한번 했을 때 느낄 수 있는 최대 크기와 정서를 표현하는 시점을 두 단계로 나누어 정서적 특성을 MBTI 성격 유형에 따라 적용한다. 이렇게 설계된 인공감정은 실제 캐릭터의 적용해보고 성격 유형에 따라 감정 표현과 변화를 분석한다.

In order to cultivate AI(artificial intelligence) manpower, major countries are making efforts to apply AI education from elementary school. In order to introduce AI education in elementary school, it is necessary to have a curriculum and educational content for elementary school level. This study developed educational contents to experience the principle of AI learning at the unplugged level for the purpose of AI education for elementary school students. The educational content developed was selected as an AI that evaluates the emotion of sentences. In addition, to solve the problem, data attributes were derived and collected, and the process of AI learning was simulated to solve the problem. As a result of the study, the attitude of elementary school students to AI increased post than before. In addition, the task performance rate was averaged at 85%, showing that the proposed AI education content has educational significance.

The purpose of this study was to investigate how children with cochlear implants (CI) perceive emotion in music depending on mode and tempo cues, and to compare them to NH children. Participants in this study included 13 CI children who were implanted with either unilateral or bilateral cochlear implants aged between 7 and 13 years, 36 NH children, and 20 NH adults. The musical stimuli used in this study were piano recordings in either major or minor mode, with tempos of 130 bpm and 56 bpm. A comparison of the emotion perception levels of NH children and NH adults before the experiment showed that there was no significant difference between the two groups. Meanwhile, the way they perceive different emotions from each music condition varies, in that CI children perceived all music conditions except as happy, while NH children perceived music in a major key as happy and music in a minor key as sad. It supports that CI children tend to rely primarily on tempo cues to process and identify emotional information from music, which is contrary to NH children. It is important to note that this study enhanced and specified the understanding of how CI children perceive music emotion and use specific musical elements in the process. These findings indicate baseline data on emotion perception in music in CI children.

In human and robot interaction, the role of emotion becomes more important Therefore, robots need the emotion expression mechanism similar to human. In this paper, we suggest a new emotion expression system based on the psychological studies and it consists of five affective elements, i.e., the emotion, the mood, the personality, the tendency, and the machine rhythm. Each element has somewhat peculiar influence on the emotion expression pattern change according to their characteristics. As a result, although robots were exposed to the same external stimuli, each robot can show a different emotion expression pattern. The proposed system may contribute to make a rather natural and human-friendly human-robot interaction and to promote more intimate relationships between people and robots.

본 논문에서는 정신분석과 두 종류의 정서이론, 인공지능과 신경회로망 그리고 퍼지 페트리 네트 등을 사용하여 사람의 인지과정을 모방한 인지모형시스템을 개발하였다. 먼저 프로이트의 정신분석을 사용하여 정신의 구조를 그래프로 표현한 후 이것을 '마음의 지도'라 명명하였다. 인지모형시스템을 구현하기 위한 첫 번째 작업으로 동적인 추론을 할 수 있는 지능 모델인 KNBN(Kohonen Network based Belief Network)을 제안하였다. KNBN으로 표현한 마음의 약도 내에서 연결강도 값으로 사용할 상대적 데이터를 만들기 위한 근거로서는 '정서'를 사용하였는데, 플라칙의 진화론에 근거한 정서이론과 오토니의 인지적 정서이론을 결합하여 데이터로 만든후 이 수치를 연결강도로 사용하였다. 이 두 개의 정서이론을 결합하는 알고리즘을 만들기 위해 페트리네트를 변형한 퍼지 페트리네트를 제안하였다. 또한 오토니가 주장하는 정서의 인지구조를 사람들이 그대로 이해하는지 여부를 알기 위해 대학생 100명을 대상으로 설문지를 사용해 정서의 인지구조에 대해 조사하였고 그 결과 값에 근거하여 두 개의 정서이론 결합 알고리즘을 만들었다. 이것으로 정서 발화에 대한 상대적인 수치가 산출되었고, 이것을 KNBN으로 표현한 마음의 약도에 결합하기 위해 0과 1사이의 수치로 정규화 하였다. 이렇게 정규화된 데이터를 이용해 인지 모형 시스템을 개발하였다.

The sense of touch by natural wind is one of the most common feels that every person experiences in daily life. However, it has been rarely studied how natural wind can be reproduced in a VR environment and whether the multisensory contents equipped with artificial winds do improve human emotion or not. To address these issues, we first propose a wind reproduction VR system guided by video and wind capture data and also study the effect of the system on positive affect. We collected wind direction and speed data together with a 360-degree video on a yacht. These pieces of data were used to produce a multisensory VR environment by our wind reproduction VR system. 19 college students participated in the experiments, where the Korean version of Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (K-PANAS) was introduced to measure their emotions. Through the K-PANAS, we found that 'inspired' and 'active' emotions increase significantly after experiencing the yacht VR contents with artificial wind. Our experimental results also show that another emotion, 'interested', is most notably affected depending on the presence of the wind. The presented system can be effectively used in various VR applications such as interactive media and experiential contents.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the level of biomedical ethics awareness, empathy among college students. The participants were 469 university students in South Korea. The average score for biomedical ethics awareness was $2.89{\pm}.21$ ; The average the scores of empathy was $2.41{\pm}.35$. Biomedical ethics awareness showed a positive correlation with empathy(r=.203, p<.001). Emotional empathy showed a significant effect on biomedical ethics awareness. And the empathic concern of emotional empathy showed a significant effect on right to life fetus, artificial abortion, artificial insemination, prenatal diagnosis of fetus, right to life of newborn, euthanasia, brain death of biomedical ethics awareness. The results of this study suggest that biomedical ethics education to the emotional empathy should need for general university students.
