Context in Affective Multiparty and Multimodal Interaction: Why, Which, How and Where?
Workshop on Understanding and Modeling Multiparty, Multimodal Interactions (UMMMI 2014),
ABSTRACT
Recent advances in Affective Computing (AC) include research towards automatic analysis of human emotionally enhanced behavior during multiparty interactions within different contextual settings. Current paper delves on how is context incorporated into multiparty and multimodal interaction within the AC framework. Aspects of context incorporation such as importance and motivation for context incorporation, appropriate emotional models, resources of multiparty interactions useful for context analysis, context as another modality in multimodal AC and context-aware AC systems are addressed as research questions reviewing the current state-of-the-art in the research field. Challenges that arise from the incorporation of context are identified and discussed in order to foresee future research directions in the domain. Finally, we propose a context incorporation architecture into affect-aware systems with multiparty interaction including detection and extraction of semantic context concepts, enhancing emotional models with context information and context concept representation in appraisal estimation.
