About the Symposium
This symposium will explore the emerging field of Emotional Informatics, which combines machine learning and neurophysiological research to understand human behavior through the lens of emotion. Recent advances in neuroimaging analysis have made it possible to estimate an individual’s emotional state from brain activity. This breakthrough promises to enhance our understanding of how emotions influence human behavior and decision-making across various disciplines, including psychology, linguistics, economics, and aesthetics.
