Class in affective computing is offered by CS on Thursday afternoons. I am going to audit it, might be interesting for IMD students to consider, and there is space in the class. Supposed to be able to walk away with a 'toolkit of code' by the end.
Affective Computing is computing that relates to, arises from, or deliberately influences emotions. This course will overview the theory of human emotion (how it arises from and influences cognition, the body and the social environment), techniques for recognizing and synthesizing emotional behavior, and illustrate how these can be applied to application design.
I would highly recommend this not be heard on an ipod.
