Recognizing emotions on the basis of keystroke dynamics
Abstract
The article describes a research on recognizing emotional states on the basis of keystroke dynamics. An overview of various studies and applications of emotion recognition based on data coming from keyboard is presented. Then, the idea of an experiment is presented, i.e. the way of collecting and labeling training data, extracting features and finally training classifiers. Different classification approaches are proposed to be tested: universal vs. individual models, multiclass vs. two-class. The obtained results reveal which of these approaches are appropriate for the given task. The individual two-class models turn out to be the most accurate.

Keystroke Dynamics can be used to determine the authors' emotional state.
“Besides its natural use for authentication, KD can also be used to determine the authors' emotional state [102][103][104][105]”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
