Research with controlled or crossover designs in animal-assisted therapy have largely used control groups receiving no treatment or treatment as usual, which can potentially inflate the effects of these interventions. It is therefore not always clear...
Facial expression recognition (FER) is essential for discerning human emotions and is applied extensively in big data analytics, healthcare, security, and user experience enhancement. This study presents a comprehensive evaluation of ten state-of-the...
Embarrassment is a social emotion that shares many characteristics with social anxiety (SA). Most people experience embarrassment in their daily lives, but it is quite overlooked in research. We characterized embarrassment through an interdisciplinar...

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have been widely adopted to mine topological patterns contained in physiological signals for emotion recognition. However, since physiological signals are non-stationary and susceptible to various noises, there exists int...
This study focuses on generating national ballads with ethnic characteristics through algorithms, and exploring the application of artificial intelligence in music composition. As an important component of Chinese traditional culture, national ballad...

The aim of this study is to develop Deep Learning (DL) enabled robotic systems to identify audio-based emotional pragmatics deficits in individuals with social pragmatic communication deficits. The novelty of the work stems from its integration of de...
With the increasing development of metaverse and human-computer interaction (HMI) technologies, artificial intelligence (AI) applications in virtual reality (VR) environments are receiving significant attention. This study presents a self-sensing fac...
Metacognition and facial emotional expressions both play a major role in human social interactions [1, 2] as inner narrative and primary communicational display, and both are limited by self-monitoring, control and their interaction with personal and...
Speech emotion recognition (SER) is an important application in Affective Computing and Artificial Intelligence. Recently, there has been a significant interest in Deep Neural Networks using speech spectrograms. As the two-dimensional representation ...
