Communication error detection using facial expressions
… system for detecting communication errors using facial expressions during the system's turn. This is useful as it detects communication problems before the user speaks a reply. To detect communication problems accurately and efficiently we develop novel extensions to hidden-state discriminative …

Facial Expressions of Emotion: Influences of Configuration
The dominant theory in facial expression research is the dual mode hypothesis. After reviewing the literature pertaining to the dual mode hypothesis within the recognition of facial identities and emotional expressions, seven experiments are reported testing the role of configural processing within …

Experimenter audience effects on young adults' facial expressions during pain.
Facial expression has been used as a measure of pain in clinical and experimental studies. The Sociocommunications Model of Pain (T. Hadjistavropoulos, K. Craig, & S. Fuchs-Lacelle, 2004) characterizes facial movements during pain as both expressions of inner experience and communications to other …

Creating Human-Like Facial Expressions Utilizing Artificial Muscles and Skin
Mimicking facial structures for a robotic head requires integration of multiple structural and mechanical parameters, design, synthesis and control of muscle actuation, architecture of the linkages between actuation points within skin, and implementation of the deformation matrix with respect to …

Communication responses to positive or neutral facial expressions between the genders
… female or male with either a positive or neutral facial expression and their natural responses were recorded. The responses were coded on a Likert scale and analyzed with a 3 way ANOVA.</p> <p>The data presented in this study allows this researcher to reject the second null hypothesis and accept …

Recognition of Human Facial Expressions of Emotion in the Domestic Horse (Equus caballus)
… of either angry (n=2) or happy (n=2) human facial expressions as opposed to a neutral expression of the same individual. At the end of the experiment, two horses were operating at an accuracy level significantly above chance: one from the group assigned to angry faces (χ2 = 25, p<.001) and …

Accuracy for decoding facial expressions in mildly mental handicapped and average intelligence children
The primary purpose of this study was to determine if relationships exist among the constructs of field dependence, simultaneous processing and sequential processing. The interrelationships among these constructs and ability and achievement were also explored. Regression and discriminant analyses, …

Facial responses to facial expressions of emotion in dangerous and severe personality disorder
When people view facial expressions of emotion they tend to mimic or mirror the expression. According to Leventhal's perceptual-motor theory of emotion, this response occurs when innate central motor programmes are activated. There is evidence that individuals with psychopathic traits have impaired …
