A Study on the Mechanical Psychological Control of Facial Expression and its Educational Application for Handicapped Children.

在“面部表情”方面，通过对心理学文献的仔细分析，将其划分为七个类别和子类别。最初构建的数学公式产生了“冷静”和“怀疑”的附加类别。经验数据表明，除了眉毛、眼睛、嘴巴外，还应强调鼻子、下巴、前额的图案。由于“工作站计算机”的高级功能，公式控制的“面部表情”模式在CRT上再现。（电脑显示）语音表情也伴随着面部表情。在二维显示系统中加入了多边形、线框和模糊规则等理论，以提高小型机器人的三维表达和显示能力。因此，一个小型机器人的“面部表情”在这个研究项目中成功地实现了，尽管是在试探性的基础上。根据我们的调查，在教育申请中，有自闭症倾向的智障儿童经常将快乐的表情与“恐惧”的表情混淆。因此，“面部表情”的展示需要精心安排，要考虑各种因素，如启动、偏见、背景人物等。本课题的研究成果将为通过计算机控制的三维“面部表情”模拟来阐明人类大脑高度发达的“识别”和“学习”过程开辟道路。

With respect to "Facial Expression", seven categories and sub-categories were classified through the careful analyses of psychological documentation. Originally constructed mathematical formula yielded additional categories of "coolness" and "doubt". Empirical data collected indicate that patterns of nose,chin,forehead should also be emphasized in addition to eyebrows, eyes, mouth. Owing to the high level functions of "Workstation Computer", formula controlled "Facial Expression" patterns were reproduced on CRT. (display of computer)Voice expressions are also accompanied with the facial expression. In order to step up to the production of three dimensioned expression and display through a small robot, theories of polygon, wire-frame and fuzzy rules were added to the two dimensional display system. As a result, "Facial Expression" by a small robot was successfully implemented in this research project, though on the tentative bases. In relation to education application, handicapped children of mentally retarded with autistic tendency often mixed up the face of happy with "fear", according to our survey. Careful arrangement, therefore are required for "Facial Expression" display, taking the various factors such as priming, prejudice and background figure into consideration. The results of this research project will greatly contribute to open the way for clarification of highly developed "recognition" and "learning" process of human brain by means of the computer controlled simulation of "Facial expression"of three dimensional kind.
