Emotion Communication Model Based on Life-Log Comparison: Mutual Understanding through Comparable Experiences

No one can see your emotion but we can see your action. That is to say, we can't see emotion but can recognize the emotion from the action it triggers. We propose an emotion communication model that permits images to be exchanged and attendant algorithms that identify and mine "comparable" experiences from Life-Logs. In this paper, we show our approach to the emotion communication model. We then construct and test a prototype system using real life-log data. Finally, we elucidate the cross-correlation relations of the equivalency of experiences and the equivalency of emotions.
