  • This paper reports several emotion detecting methods based on various attributes of human voice. These methods have been developed at our Engineering Systems Laboratory. It is noted that, in all of the proposed methods, only prosodic information in voice is used for emotion recognition and semantic information in voice is not used. Different types of neural networks(NNs) are used for detection depending on the type of voice parameters. Earlier approaches separately used linear prediction coefficients(LPCs) and time series data of pitch but they were combined in later studies. The proposed methods are explained first and then evaluation experiments of individual methods and their performances in emotion detection are presented and compared.

  • In this paper, we verify the relation between elements (active and inactive) of Russell's emotional dimension ("A Circumplex Model") to propose a new representing method. Russell's emotional dimension expresses emotional words (happy, joy, sad, nervous, etc.) as a point on the two dimensions (Arousal and Valence). It is most commonly used in many filed such as Science of Emotion & Sensibility, Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), and Psychology etc. But other researchers have insisted that Russell's emotional dimension have to be modified because of its inherent problems. Such problems included the possibility of mixed feelings, the difference of emotion and sensibility, and the difference of Arousal axis and Valence axis. Therefore, we verify relationship of A Circumplex Model's elements (active and inactive) and find how to people express their Arousal feelings using survey. We finally propose new method to express emotion in Russell's emotional dimension. Using this method, we can solve Russell's problems and compensate other researches.

  • This paper introduces the basic concept of computational modeling of perception processes for multimedia data. Such processes are modeled as hierarchical inter- and intra- relationships amongst information in physical, physiological, psychological and cognitive layers in perception. Based on our framework, this paper gives the algorithms for content-based retrieval for multimedia database systems.

  • A viscosity resistance control method of the intelligent prosthetic legs is studied using an optimal control theory. The simulated results suggests that it is important to control the viscosity of the prosthetic knee joint in one period of walking to improve the usability. In this paper we describe modeling of the thigh prosthetic legs, optimal control and simulated results.
