Figures & data

Table 1. Predictions of emotions in accordance to different subjective feelings, physiological symptoms and expressive behaviours together with the corresponding variables and interpretation.

Table 2. Variables and interpretation from ISEAR questionnaire.

Figure 1. The flow structure of the emergent self-organising learning with support-vector feature ranking. The SVM is trained using the full set of input data and the ranking criterion is evaluated for feature ranking. The data are then clustered by the ESOM algorithm and such clusters are assigned for classification.

(a) U-map with two features selected; (b) P-Map with two features selected; (c) U-Map with four features selected; (d) P-Map with four features selected; red points denote data points from majority class, whereas green points represent samples from minority class.
