INCORPORATING EMOTION RECOGNITION IN CO-ADAPTIVE SYSTEMS
- Date Issued:
- 2022
- Abstract/Description:
- The collaboration between human and computer systems has grown astronomically over the past few years. The ability of software systems adapting to human's input is critical in the symbiosis of human-system co-adaptation, where human and software-based systems work together in a close partnership to achieve synergetic goals. However, it is not always clear what kinds of human’s input should be considered to enhance the effectiveness of human and system co-adaptation. To address this issue, this research describes an approach that focuses on incorporating human emotion to improve human-computer co-adaption. The key idea is to provide a formal framework that incorporates human emotions as a foundation for explainability into co-adaptive systems, especially, how software systems recognize human emotions and adapt the system’s behaviors accordingly. Detecting and recognizing optimum human emotion is a first step towards human and computer symbiosis. As the first step of this research, we conduct a comparative review for a number of technologies and methods for emotion recognition. Specifically, testing the detection accuracy of facial expression recognition of different cloud-services, algorithms, and methods. Secondly, we study the application of emotion recognition within the areas of e-learning, robotics, and explainable artificial intelligence (XAI). We propose a formal framework that incorporates human emotions into an adaptive e-learning system, to create a more personalized learning experience for higher quality of learning outcomes. In addition, we propose a framework for a co-adaptive Emotional Support Robot. This human-centric framework adopts a reinforced learning approach where the system assesses its own emotional re-actions.
