Affective computing: A fuzzy approach

The recent developments in the field of Human-Computer Interaction have emphasized the focus of design more towards user-centered rather than computer-centered approach. This led to design of interfaces which are highly effective, intelligent and adaptive, and can adjust themselves with respect to the user's behavioral changes. Such designs are called intelligent and affective interfaces. The proposed framework is designed for affective computing machines, which can sense and adapt according to the moods and emotions of the user, using Fuzzy and Image processing techniques.
