  • people with anxiety or conditions such as Asperger’s,
  • can predict if a conversation is happy, sad, or neutral based on a person’s speech patterns and vitals
  • captures high-resolution physiological waveforms to measure features such as movement, heart rate, blood pressure, blood flow, and skin temperature. The system also captured audio data and text transcripts to analyze the speaker’s tone, pitch, energy, and vocabulary.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • On average, the model could classify the mood of each five-second interval with an accuracy that was approximately 18 percent above chance, and a full 7.5 percent better than existing approaches.
  • algorithm is not yet reliable enough to be deployed for social coaching,
  • potentially using commercial devices such as the Apple Watch
  • implement the system out in the world.
