Modeling and control of human-centered intelligent mechatronic systems with consideration of emotion

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Intelligent machine systems refer to machines that can exhibit the behaviors found in humans, such as learning, reasoning, decision-making, sensing, and adaptation. The contemporary intelligent machine system has nearly excluded emotion, which thus greatly compromises the degree of intelligence within the system, because the emotion is a kind of human behavior that affects the capability of information processing, decision making, and memory. This research program aims to develop a better understanding of what and how emotion affects our decision making process. The research will be conducted in two typical application domains (i.e., driver-vehicle and elderly-robot systems) in order to demonstrate the generality of the proposed research; they are chosen due to their broad impact to our society.
