Adding Emotion to Computing

摘要

Rosalind W. Picard took a risk when she started telling colleagues that technology needed to be able to use and interpret emotions. "'Emotion' was not a word or topic anybody serious wanted to be associated with back when I first encountered its important role," she said. She was trying to develop computers that could see and hear like humans when she realized that emotions influence what people see and hear or how they choose language or action-and that was being left out of computing.
