An Emotion Generation Model for Interactive Virtual Robots

The integration of emotion-aware systems into automotive safety frameworks is an evolving field in the application of artificial intelligence (AI) and human-computer interaction (HCI). This paper proposes a comprehensive, human-centric model designed to monitor drivers' emotional states in real-time, providing adaptive feedback to minimize risks associated with stress, fatigue, anger and distraction. By addressing critical gaps in the literature, such as the integration of multi-sensory data, the provision of real-time adaptive responses, and the emphasis on user-centered design, this model advances the field of intelligent automotive safety systems. The proposed framework combines affective computing with advanced machine learning algorithms to create a system capable of strengthening drivers' safety and well-being.

In this paper, we propose an emotional action generation model for robots that supports real-time operation. Emotional actions make users feel better. However, some conventional robot emotion generation models do not support real-time operation and do not generate natural actions that make users feel better. The proposed model enables robots to perform natural actions that positively influence communication between the user and the robot. Through two simulations, we evaluate the generation of emotional actions and real-time operation. The experimental results confirm confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed model.

Automatic analysis of human facial expressions is one of the challenging problems in machine vision systems. It has many applications in human-computer interactions such as, social signal processing, social robots, deceit detection, interactive video and behavior monitoring. In this paper, we develop a new method for automatic facial expression recognition based on facial muscle anatomy and human face structure. The algorithm finds approximate location of effective facial muscles and extracts features by measuring skin texture in 11 local patches. Seven facial expressions, including neutral are being classified in this study using AdaBoost classifier and other classifiers on MMI databases. Experimental results show that analyzing skin texture from selected local patches gives accurate and efficient information in order to identify different facial expressions.

This study evaluates the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications in power systems on energy security and to determine relevant policy implications. We use a mixed methods approach to analyze the benefits and risks associated with AI implementation on the European power grid, focusing on four key dimensions of energy security: availability, affordability, accessibility, and acceptability. We investigated the benefits of AI using PyPSA, a Python-based model of the European electricity system. Three AI applications were parametrized: load reduction, load shifting, and wind wake steering. We compared scenarios in which these AI applications are widely deployed against a baseline scenario without these applications to determine if AI improves energy security. The study also analyzes risks associated with AI deployment in the power grid. We developed a risk taxonomy centered around six high-level categories: cybersecurity, jurisdictional or sovereignty issues, unexplained or unexpected actions by the model, unethical or illegal decision-making, reliance and trust in decision-making, and supplier dependency and vendor lock-in. Additionally, we conducted a back-casting exercise with subject-matter experts to determine positive and negative future outcomes of AI deployment and identify actions to create positive outcomes and avoid negative ones. The paper presents a set of policy implications for AI on the European synchronous grid. We find that AI applications can improve energy security in power systems. In the scenarios we tested, behind-the-meter applications have a greater impact on energy security than front-of-meter applications. The results suggest that AI applications targeting energy consumption may significantly improve energy security metrics. Keywords: Energy Security, AI, Power Grid, European Electricity System

There has been much research on computer vision in last three decades. Computer vision methods have been developed for different situations. One example is a detection of human face. For computers face detection is hard. Faces look different from different viewing directions. Facial expressions affect to the look of the face. Each individual person has a unique face. The lightning conditions can vary and so on.However, face detection is currently possible in limited conditions. In addition, there are some methods that can be used for gender recognition [3], face recognition [5] and facial expression recognition [2].Nonetheless, there has been very little research on how to combine these methods. There has also been quite little research on how to apply these methods in human-computer interaction (HCI).Finding sets of techniques that complement each other in a useful way is one research challenge. There are some applications that take advantage of one or two computer vision techniques. For example, Christian and Avery [1] have developed an information kiosk that uses computer vision to detect potential users from a distance. A similar kiosk has been developed by us in the University of Tampere [4]. There are also some games that use simple computer vision techniques for the interaction. However, there are very few applications that use several computer vision techniques together such as face detection, facial expression recognition and gender recognition. Overall, there has been very little effort in combining different techniques.In my research I develop computer vision methods and combine them, so that the combined method can detect face, recognize gender and facial expressions. After successfully combining the methods, it is easier to develop HCI applications that take advantage of computer vision. Applications that can be used by small group of people are my specific interest. These applications allow me to build adaptive user interfaces and analyze the use of computer vision techniques in improving human-computer interaction.

Emotions play a vital role in recognizing a person’s thoughts and vary significantly with stress levels. Emotion and stress classification have gained considerable attention in robotics and artificial intelligence applications. While numerous methods based on machine learning techniques provide average classification performance, recent deep learning approaches offer enhanced results. This research presents a hybrid deep learning model that extracts features using AlexNet and DenseNet models, followed by feature fusion and dimensionality reduction via Principal Component Analysis (PCA). The reduced features are then classified using a multi-class Support Vector Machine (SVM) to categorize different types of emotions. The proposed model was evaluated using the DEAP and EEG Brainwave datasets, both well-suited for emotion analysis due to their comprehensive EEG signal recordings and diverse emotional stimuli. The DEAP dataset includes EEG signals from 32 participants who watched 40 one-minute music videos, while the EEG Brainwave dataset categorizes emotions into positive, negative, and neutral based on EEG recordings from participants exposed to six different film clips. The proposed model achieved an accuracy of 95.54% and 97.26% for valence and arousal categories in the DEAP dataset, respectively, and 98.42% for the EEG Brainwave dataset. These results significantly outperform existing methods, demonstrating the model’s superior performance in terms of precision, recall, F1-score, specificity, and Mathew correlation coefficient. The integration of AlexNet and DenseNet, combined with PCA and multi-class SVM, makes this approach particularly effective for capturing the intricate patterns in EEG data, highlighting its potential for applications in human-computer interaction and mental health monitoring, marking a significant advancement over traditional methods.

Artificial intelligence (AI) applications pave the way for innovations in the healthcare (HC) industry. However, their adoption in HC organizations is still nascent as organizations often face a fragmented and incomplete picture of how they can capture the value of AI applications on a managerial level. To overcome adoption hurdles, HC organizations would benefit from understanding how they can capture AI applications’ potential.We conduct a comprehensive systematic literature review and 11 semi-structured expert interviews to identify, systematize, and describe 15 business objectives that translate into six value propositions of AI applications in HC.Our results demonstrate that AI applications can have several business objectives converging into risk-reduced patient care, advanced patient care, self-management, process acceleration, resource optimization, and knowledge discovery.We contribute to the literature by extending research on value creation mechanisms of AI to the HC context and guiding HC organizations in evaluating their AI applications or those of the competition on a managerial level, to assess AI investment decisions, and to align their AI application portfolio towards an overarching strategy.

This research examines what impact the Big Data Processing Framework (BDPF) has on Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications within Corporate Marketing Communication (CMC), and thereby the research question stated is: What is the potential impact of the BDPF on AI applications within the CMC tactical and managerial functions? To fulfill the purpose of this research, a qualitative research strategy was applied, including semi-structured interviews with experts within the different fields of examination: management, AI technology and CMC. The findings were analyzed through performing a thematic analysis, where coding was conducted in two steps. AI has many useful applications within CMC, which currently mainly are of the basic form of AI, so-called rule-based systems. However, the more complicated communication systems are used in some areas. Based on these findings, the impact of the BDPF on AI applications is assessed by examining different characteristics of the processing frameworks. The BDPF initially imposes both an administrative and compliance burden on organizations within this industry, and is particularly severe when machine learning is used. These burdens foremost stem from the general restriction of processing personal data and the data erasure requirement. However, in the long term, these burdens instead contribute to a positive impact on machine learning. The timeframe until enforcement contributes to a somewhat negative impact in the short term, which is also true for the uncertainty around interpretations of the BDPF requirements. Yet, the BDPF provides flexibility in how to become compliant, which is favorable for AI applications. Finally, BDPF compliance can increase company value, and thereby incentivize investments into AI models of higher transparency. The impact of the BDPF is quite insignificant for the basic forms of AI applications, which are currently most common within CMC. However, for the more complicated applications that are used, the BDPF is found to have a more severe negative impact in the short term, while it instead has a positive impact in the long term.
