Abstract

The ability to process and, subsequently, understand affective signals is the core of emotional intelligence and empathy. However, more than a decade of research in affective computing has shown that it is hard to develop computational models of this process. We pose that the solution for this problem lays in a better understanding of how to process these affective signals. This article introduces a symposium that brought together various approaches towards unveiling affective signals. As such, it is envisioned to be a springboard for affective computing.
