Outline of Final Research Achievements

In recent years, robotics technology has been dramatically improved. Also some humanoid robots have been developed to look. However, the robots can not understand human emotions yet. In other words, there is no mind in the robot. This research presented a methodology which creates robots mind using the mental state transition network we proposed. We focus on human psychological characteristics to develop the mind that can recognize human emotion and create machine emotion. We analyze and estimate many statistical data based on emotion corpus in order to derive transition networks for human psychological states. This research also presented modules that can recognize human emotion and create machine emotion. And a method for constructing mental state transition network for emotion interface has been proposed. We have developed a humanoid robot as a prototype of emotion robot.
