Context dependency of facial expressions in communucations

The face expressions are considered to be a significant part of the very important nonverbal information, needed to understand the other party's feelings in communications. In this work we proposed a system that facilitates the exchange of face expressions of players together with the standard communication content. We experimentally investigated the influence on the content of the communication and its context on the expressions of the face. As the result, we confirmed that the influence of the face expressions changes depending on the context of communications.
