This paper introduces a design of multi-dimensional complex emotional model for various complex emotional expression. It is a novel approach to design an emotional model by comparison with conventional emotional model which used a three-dimensional emotional space with some problems; the discontinuity of emotions, the simple emotional expression, and the necessity of re-designing the emotional model for each robot. To solve these problems, we have designed an emotional model. It uses a multi-dimensional emotional space for the continuity of emotion. A linear model design is used for reusability of the emotional model. It has the personality for various emotional results although it gets same inputs. To demonstrate the effectiveness of our model, we have tested with a human friendly robot.

In face recognition, learning speed of face is very important since the system should be trained again whenever the size of dataset increases. In existing methods, training time increases rapidly with the increase of data, which leads to the difficulty of training with a large dataset. To overcome this problem, we propose SVDD (Support Vector Domain Description)-based learning method that can learn a dataset of face rapidly and incrementally. In experimental results, we show that the training speed of the proposed method is much faster than those of other methods. Moreover, it is shown that our face recognition system can improve the accuracy gradually by learning faces incrementally at real environments with illumination changes.
