Abstract

Although many emotion recognition methods have been developed, monitoring a driver's emotions during driving is still a challenge because some special requirements must be met. This study begins with the classification of emotion, and then proceeds to emotion recognition. In particular, this study presents the applications of blood volume pressure, skin conductance, skin temperature, gripping force, respiration rate, and facial expression in emotion recognition. Experiments are designed and carried out to find the mapping relation among heart rate, skin conductance, and skin temperature to two kinds of emotions: fear and amusement. The experimental results demonstrate the feasibility of using the selected physiological parameters to monitor drivers' emotions.
