Abstract

EmOCA (Emotion Ontology for Context Awareness) improve emotion detection by reasonning on contextual data. We use this ontology to contextualize dimensionnal annotation (based on expressive data) and to categorize it with a vocabulary inspired by categorical emotion models.

The EmOCA at a glance

What follows is the schematic representation of EmOCA. Green boxes represent core EmOCA classes and Gray circles core properties.

Emoca ontology

Background

In the field of affective computing and more precisely for emotion detection purpose, expressive data are well-known to embed emotion informations. But, according to some psychologic emotion theories such as the two factor theory of Sachter and Singer, contextual informations are used by human being to determine felt emotion after bodily expression. So, we propose in our more global application to reproduce this behavior by predicting emotion from expressive data and in a second time ponderate it by contextual informations. EmOCA is used to contextualize dimensionnal emotion and to categorize it for human readability.
