A User Model of Psycho-physiological Measure of Emotion

The interpretation of physiological signals in terms of emotion requires an appropriate mapping between physiological features and emotion representations. We present a user model associating psychological and physiological representation of emotion in order to bring findings from the psychophysiology domain into User-Modeling computational techniques. We discuss results based on an experiment we performed based on bio-sensors to get physiological measure of emotion, involving 40 subjects.
