A Taxonomy of Applications that Utilize Emotional Awareness

This paper deals with human-computer interaction applications that utilize emotional awareness. We will confine our discussion on speech-based applications. Prerequisites — training data, annotations — as well as state of the art in recognition and synthesis are addressed focusing on usability in possible applications and keeping restrictions in industrial environments in mind. We will present a taxonomy of applications using criteria such as online/offline, mirroring/non-mirroring, emotional/non-emotional and critical/noncritical system reactions. Based on a list of prototypical applications we check the consistency and usefulness of this taxonomy. Taksonomija aplikacij, ki uporabljajo custveno zavedanje Prispevek se ukvarja z aplikacijami za interakcijo med clovekom in racunalnikom, ki uporabljajo custveno zavedanje. Diskusijo omejujemo na govorne aplikacije. Obravnavamo predpogoje — ucni podatki, oznacevanje — in najnovejsa dognanja v razpoznavanju in sintezi govora, osredotocamo se na uporabnost možnih aplikacij ob upostevanju omejitev v industrijskih okoljih. Predstavljamo taksonomijo aplikacij glede na to, ali omogocajo sprotni odziv ali ne, ali so zrcaljene ali ne, ali so custvene ali ne ter ali so reakcije sistema kriticne ali ne. Na podlagi seznama prototipskih aplikacij preverjamo doslednost in uporabnost te taksonomije.
