Abstract :
The formation of cognitive system usually accompanies the change of emotions that play a significant role in cognitive process of humankind. Emotion affected by internal elements and external stimulations in various contexts is a complex psychological experience and physiological expression of human being. In this paper, we focus primarily on the evaluation of emotions and propose a cognitive computational architecture to measure emotions of human based on ontology methodology. First, we comprehensively analyze the psycho-physiological characters of emotions based on existed theory of emotions, and extract dynamic and inherent properties of emotions. Second, we propose a new scale term named emotion degree for measuring emotions, while overall emotion degree (OED) as the quantitative expression of emotion consists of direct emotion degree (DED) and feedback emotion degree (FED). Third, we present a cognitive-computational architecture to measure emotions according to ontology methodology.
