Recently, a methodology for analyzing complex bio-signals using a deep learning model has emerged among studies that recognize human emotions. At this time, the accuracy of emotion classification may be changed depending on the evaluation method and reliability depending on the kind of data to be learned. In the case of biological signals, the reliability of data is determined according to the noise ratio, so that the noise detection method is as important as that. Also, according to the methodology for defining emotions, appropriate emotional evaluation methods will be needed. In this paper, we propose a wavelet -based noise threshold setting algorithm for verifying the reliability of data for multimodal bio-signal data labeled Valence and Arousal and a method for improving the emotion recognition rate by weighting the evaluation data. After extracting the wavelet component of the signal using the wavelet transform, the distortion and kurtosis of the component are obtained, the noise is detected at the threshold calculated by the hampel identifier, and the training data is selected considering the noise ratio of the original signal. In addition, weighting is applied to the overall evaluation of the emotion recognition rate using the euclidean distance from the median value of the Valence-Arousal plane when classifying emotional data. To verify the proposed algorithm, we use ASCERTAIN data set to observe the degree of emotion recognition rate improvement.

Physiological responses have been measured to recognize emotion. Although physiological responses have been interrelated between organs, their connectivities have been less considered for emotion recognizing. The connectivities have been assumed to enhance emotion recognition. Specially, autonomic nervous system is physiologically modulated by the interrelated functioning. Therefore, this study has been tried to analyze connectivities between heart and respiration and to find the significantly connected variables for emotion recognition. The eighteen subjects(10 male, age $24.72{\pm}2.47$) participated in the experiment. The participants were asked to listen to predetermined sound stimuli (arousal, relaxation, negative, positive) for evoking emotion. The bio-signals of heart and respiration were measured according to sound stimuli. HRV (heart rate variability) and BRV (breathing rate variability) spectrum were obtained from spectrum analysis of ECG (electrocardiogram) and RSP (respiration). The synchronization of HRV and BRV spectrum was analyzed according to each emotion. Statistical significance of relationship between them was tested by one-way ANOVA. There were significant relation of synchronization between HRV and BRV spectrum (synchronization of HF: F(3, 68) = 3.605, p = 0.018, ${\eta}^2_p=0.1372$, synchronization of LF: F(3, 68) = 5.075, p = 0.003, ${\eta}^2_p=0.1823$). HF difference of synchronization between ECG and RSP has been able to classify arousal from relaxation (p = 0.008, d = 1.4274) and LF's has negative from positive (p = 0.002, d = 1.7377). Therefore, it was confirmed that the heart and respiration to recognize the dimensional emotion by connectivity.

Emotion has a direct influence such as decision-making, perception, etc. and plays an important role in human life. For the convenient and accurate recognition of high-arousal negative emotion, the purpose of this paper is to design an algorithm for analysis using the bio-signal. In this study, after two emotional induction using the 'normal' / 'fear' emotion types of videos, we measured the Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) signal which is the simple of bio-signals. Then, by decomposing Tonic component and Phasic component in the measured GSR and decomposing Skin Conductance Very Slow Response (SCVSR) and Skin Conductance Slow Response (SCSR) in the Phasic component associated with emotional stimulation, extracting the major features of the components for an accurate analysis, we used a discrete wavelet transform with excellent time-frequency localization characteristics, not the method used previously. The extracted features are maximum value of Phasic component, amplitude of Phasic component, zero crossing rate of SCVSR and zero crossing rate of SCSR for distinguishing high-arousal negative emotion. As results, the case of high-arousal negative emotion exhibited higher value than the case of low-arousal normal emotion in all 4 of the features, and the more significant difference between the two emotion was found statistically than the previous analysis method. Accordingly, the results of this study indicate that the GSR may be a useful indicator for a high-arousal negative emotion measurement and contribute to the development of the emotional real-time rating system using the GSR.

As the automobile industry and technologies are developed, driver's tend to more concern about service matters than mechanical matters. For this reason, interests about recognition of human knowledge and emotion to make safe and convenient driving environment for driver are increasing more and more. recognition of human knowledge and emotion are emotion engineering technology which has been studied since the late 1980s to provide people with human-friendly services. Emotion engineering technology analyzes people's emotion through their faces, voices and gestures, so if we use this technology for automobile, we can supply drivels with various kinds of service for each driver's situation and help them drive safely. Furthermore, we can prevent accidents which are caused by careless driving or dozing off while driving by recognizing driver's gestures. the purpose of this paper is to develop a system which can recognize states of driver's emotion and attention for safe driving. First of all, we detect a signals of driver's emotion by using bio-motion signals, sleepiness and attention, and then we build several types of databases. by analyzing this databases, we find some special features about drivers' emotion, sleepiness and attention, and fuse the results through Multi-Modal method so that it is possible to develop the system.

Recently, researches using LBP and SVM have been performed as one of the image - based methods for facial emotion recognition. LBP, introduced by Ojala et al., is widely used in the field of image recognition due to its high discrimination of objects, robustness to illumination change, and simple operation. In addition, CS(Center-Symmetric)-LBP was used as a modified form of LBP, which is widely used for face recognition. In this paper, we propose a method to detect four facial expressions such as expressionless, happiness, surprise, and anger using deep neural network. The validity of the proposed method is verified using accuracy. Based on the existing LBP feature parameters, it was confirmed that the method using the deep neural network is superior to the method using the Adaboost and SVM classifier.

Recently, we aim to improve the quality of virtual reality contents based on quantitative analysis results of emotions through combination of emotional recognition field and virtual reality field. Emotions are analyzed based on the participant's vital signs. Much research has been done in terms of signal analysis, but the methodology for quantifying emotions has not been fully discussed. In this paper, we propose a normalization function design and expression method to quantify the emotion between various bio - signals. Use the Brute force algorithm to find the optimal parameters of the normalization function and improve the confidence score of the parameters found using the true and false scores defined in this paper. As a result, it is possible to automate the parameter determination of the bio-signal normalization function depending on the experience, and the emotion can be analyzed quantitatively based on this.

This study is a scientific approach to psychological factors such as emotional stability among various effects of forest resources. In order to carry out this study, the experiment was conducted on the subjects by setting the forest healing space as various spaces. The subjects who participated in this experiment were the students in their twenties and the average age was 22±1.25 years. The subjects were assessed for emotional words through subjective sequence evaluation in different designated forest healing spot. In addition, the emotional states that they actually perceived were measured by measuring the bio-signals to their perceived emotions. BMP, SDNN, VLF, LF, HF, Amplitude, and PPI were used for the bio-signal reaction experiment applied to this study. The results of this experiment were measured by Friedman test and Wilcoxon test for statistical analysis. n this study, 'good', 'clear', and 'uncomfortable' words were found statistically significant at the spot of forest healing space for subjective emotional vocabulary. In addition, SDNN, HF and Amplitude were statistically significant in the results of quantitative bio-signal measurement at each spot in the forest healing space. Based on the results of this study, we can suggest the application direction and strategic utilization plan of forest healing spot and forest resource utilization field. This is not only a guide for the users who use the facility through the spatial facilities and physical requirements for the emotion based forest-healing, but also can be used as a personalized emotional space design aspect.
