Abstract

In this paper, we propose a personalized emotional prediction method using the user's explicit emotion. The proposed method predicts the user's emotion based on Thayer's 2-dimensional emotion model, which consists of arousal and valence. We construct a user-object dataset using a self-assessment manikin about IAPS photographs, and predict the target user's arousal and valence by collaborative filtering. To evaluate performance of the proposed method, we divide the user-object dataset into a test set and training set, and then observe the difference between real emotion and predicted emotion in the 2-dimensional emotion model. As a result, we confirm that the proposed method is effective for predicting the user's emotion.
