Must security listen to Kokoro?

It Kokoro means, “heart” in Japanese. It also means “mind”, “soul”, “sensibility”, “wishes” and “sentiments”. All of these belong to the wide range of emotions and concepts that define the complex human condition. To be influenced by emotions is intrinsic to a human being. Emotions arise from having to face up to a changing and partially unpredictable world. This makes it necessary for all intelligent systems (whether natural or artificial) to develop emotions to survive [2]. Emotions are represented by the same subjective, cultural, physiological and behavioural components that express the perception of an individual's mental and physical state, and the way in which they interact with the environment. Then, how can we orientate Affective Computing? How can we fusion KOKORO and security context? Our system, KOKORO, analyses emotional expression based on ASR for Basque and Spanish users. Results are obtained over RekEmozio database [8] with SVM and HMMs. RekEmozio is a database of human emotions in Basque and Spanish (speech and video) with actors and amateurs.
