An emotion understanding system

Emotions convey information. We present an emotion understanding system to excavate information from emotions. The system infers mental states, personalities and cooperativeness of agents, related actions, and related events from agents' emotions by the rule-like meta-knowledge about emotions. Our system can be used for agents to make decisions, process knowledge, and interact with users.
