In this paper, we propose an automatic Waka generation system with custom database, based on texts given by the user. The proposed text-based system has better compatibility with Waka poem, improving consistence and logicality of generated poems. Kansei information is also considered to make poems natural and closer to the emotions the user wants to express. Presented by interactive generation experiments, the proposed system can generate Waka poems reflecting stylistic and grammatical requirements. Meanwhile, the poems are also with related meanings and emotions to the original text and some poeticness.

To create innovative ideas, it is important for designers to monitor thought patterns by reflecting upon their thought structure and then control thought. In this study, we visualized the inference process, which includes deduction, induction, and abduction, as well as the associative process. Subsequently, by connecting them radially along the flow of thought, we employed a method of visualizing the inference process of designers on a two-dimensional plane. We conducted an experiment to visualize a part of the thought of designer using the “inference mapping method.” Consequently, we found out that different cognitive biases occurred in designers' deductive, inductive, abductive, and associative thinking processes. From the technical viewpoint of cognitive science, we studied the phenomena and clarified the structure of bias in each thought process. Finally, we proposed a way to visualize cognitive biases and to consciously eliminate them when designers engage in the creative process.

This study examined how viewers' video watching was affected by the impact the display of video content on an L-shaped news ticker that shows textual information in the margin of a TV screen. By establishing video replay conditions using the L-shaped ticker and the normal screen, we analyzed the viewer's gaze fixation, and their sense of comprehension and degree of recall of the video contents. Differences in the distribution of fixation durations between the two conditions were confirmed; indicating that viewing video on the L-shaped ticker rather than on the normal screen decreased the frequency of longer fixation durations and shortened the total fixation durations when viewing video. No difference was observed in the sense of comprehension and degree of the video contents between the two conditions. Based on these findings, we discussed the possible effects of L-shaped news tickers on viewers' video recognition and the application of the results.

Miyashita, Kimura, & Oka (2017) demonstrated that openness in the big-five personality traits did not relate to aesthetic evaluations of paintings while the aesthetic dimension of value did. Conversely, previous studies showed that openness affects preferences for specific artistic paintings after predicting general preferences as a latent variable. Thus, the present study explored whether openness would affect aesthetic evaluation of paintings via mediating variable (i.e., aesthetic dimension of value). In our survey, 323 undergraduates were asked to evaluate 24 paintings using 4 scales of aesthetic evaluation. They were also asked to complete a questionnaire assessing their degrees of openness and the aesthetic dimension of value. Results demonstrated that openness did not directly relate to aesthetic evaluations of paintings but that it indirectly related to those via the aesthetic dimension of value. These results suggest that the aesthetic dimension of value relates to openness as a mediator of aesthetic evaluations.

International tourists in Japan are increasing year by year, and the Japanese government keeps promoting the tourism industry. In order to make Japan more attractive for tourists, the analysis of tourists' impressions is very important. One of the conventional approaches is to provide tourists with a questionnaire about sightseeing spots. However, the questionnaire has a problem, the memory of the interviewees fades and fine information cannot be obtained. In this paper, we describe a novel approach to detect the impression using information from electroencephalogram (EEG). Since the developed system makes use of a portable EEG device, it enables impression detection even if the subject is walking. In order to confirm the validity of the proposed system, we carried out both video-based and real-world experience of the typical sightseeing spots.

In this paper, we propose a dialogue system with emotion estimation and knowledge acquisition functions. In the emotion estimation part, 9-emotions are treated in the proposed bimodal approach using voice and natural language processing. In the voice processing part, 396-dimensional features are extracted from the voice data, and they are used in learning of Stacked Denoising AutoEncoder. In the natural language processing part, two methods are proposed. The first one is to consider the implications of the relationship between emotional expression dictionary and input sentence's words. The second one is to consider the co-occurrence frequency of the emotion words in emotion dictionary. In the knowledge acquisition part, the relationship patterns from the input sentences are extracted. In the evaluation experiments, we can confirm that the proposed dialogue system obtains higher score than the existing system in term of the adequacy of the feeling estimation and the variety of response sentences.

We investigated the RGB and XYZ components of the natural colors (two cherry blossoms, i.e., Someiyoshino and Youkou, and the emission of Heike-firefly), and the physiological effects on Japanese and foreign people were compared. The natural colors were digitally measured as RGB colors, and then they were used as color stimuli. The psychological effects were investigated by administering a questionnaire, which was based on the Semantic differential (SD) method. From the results of the questionnaire, the degrees of expression for the natural colors were quite different between Japanese and foreigners. The kansei on the natural colors between Japanese and foreigners were also different in terms of psychophysical quantity and physical cognition. The results of factor analysis showed that the color of Youkou gave pleasantness to Japanese people, whereas the colors of Someiyoshino and firefly gave pleasantness to foreign people.

Possibilities of “the affective curve drawing method” for assessing changes of affect in response to atmosphere over time, which is needed for developing effective designs of circumstances, was investigated. This evaluation method expresses continuously changing affective levels with curves. Differences in patterns of time-series affective evaluation between drawing timings, i.e. just after, and one hour after a stimulus being presented, were examined, and their correlations were indicated. This tendency was observed in both participants with high and low sensitivity to an atmosphere. There were no major differences in the evaluation patterns within an hour after the stimulus being presented. Furthermore, effects of participants' moods on evaluation of an atmosphere were examined by POMS and it was confirmed that an atmosphere was highly evaluated when participants had positive moods. From these results, possibilities of this method for time-series affective evaluation were confirmed.

The photomontage of lotus seedpods on human skin has been called “Hasu-colla” in Japan, and this can elicit strong aversion in viewers. Previous studies have reported that lotus seedpods evoke core disgust, and that Hasu-colla relates to animal reminder disgust. However, the relationship between unpleasantness evoked by lotus seedpods and that by Hasu-colla has not been demonstrated. The present study investigated whether Hasu-colla evokes stronger disgust than lotus seedpods presented alone as well as differences between background objects (from animal to stone) in evoking aversion. Hasu-colla induced stronger unpleasantness than did lotus seedpods and background objects presented alone (Exp. 1 and 2). The amplification of unpleasantness was weakest in stones and strongest in dogs among animals (Exp. 2). Lotus seedpods, which are related to disgust for clusters, evoke strong feelings of contamination, supporting the possibility that such clusters are associated with scars and sores.

From the previous paper, many problems about a fashion image term were shown. In this paper, I investigated the difference in evaluation of the fashion image term by nationality. I compared with the thing the image term in which the fashion photograph of 40 in the image term of 11 was chosen by 98 young South Korean women by the young 109 Japanese woman. As a result, while over 60% of Japanese subjects chose the same image terms for eight photographs, South Korean subjects selected for only three photographs. It was found that there was variation in the selected image terms on images of fashion style among the South Korean subjects. It analyzed using Hayashi's quantification methods class III. Although both were classified into four principal components, they differed from those of Japanese subjects regarding the styles belonging to each principal component and interpretation.

We propose a new communication system by which niche people can obtain cross-cutting information and communicate with other people based on each personality. The system graphically displays the degree and direction of other people's hobbies who are interested in the keyword niche people input, and relation between the knowledge e.g. movies, music, animation, history, geography using nodes. So, we can search friends who have similar interest and direction in hobbies. From the demonstration experiments, we obtained good results that the system could help niche people to gain and exchange useful information.

In this thesis, the relationship between sound and colour has been analysed with two different methods. First, colours are applied to sounds using the psychological technique that is based on a study on synaesthesia. In the second approach, the ideal tones are linked to hues that are referring to adjectives. However, both methods have their disadvantages. This study investigates the relationship between timbres and colours with quantitative data from tonal structures.<BR>In the first step, the relationship between timbres and colours is aggregated by conducting an experiment with subjects. The results are compared with the quantitative structure of the tone colours. From the result, four basic laws that define the causal relationship between timbre and cool or warm colours have been defined: overtone, fundamental frequency, length of sound and decay of sound.

Outerwear colors of H&M, ZARA, and UNIQLO were objectively investigated through their official online stores for a whole year, to clarify the common and particular features in colors among fast fashion brands. This study has focused on hue distribution, annual change, the basic and accent colors. Color feature of male and female outerwear in three brands are summarized respectively, and results demonstrate that colors of male and female outerwear in each brand are mainly low-chroma and achromatic colors, meanwhile colors with high-chroma are concentrated in the area between red and yellow direction; outerwear colors of fast fashion brands are affected by seasons, generally colors seem vivid and bright in spring-summer season, dull and dark in autumn-winter season; basic colors "white, black, navy blue, brown, gray" used in traditional apparel industry are utilized in fast fashion brands as well.

This study reports the results of a subject investigation that was conducted on the cause and effect of the phenomenon known as "kawaii." To experience that something is "kawaii" is a psychological phenomenon; however, it has not been clarified what type of causes lead to this type of effect. Due to the existence of several opinions regarding what comprises "kawaii," it is difficult to entirely clarify the topic. Three group interviews were conducted with a total of 30 subjects. The laddering method devised by D. Hinkle was used as the question form, and 15 stimuli were used for the investigation. The causes were classified into "shape," "behavior or expression," and "personality "; the effects were classified into 20 social needs and 16 emotional categories. Regarding the effects of "kawaii," "happiness" was considerably selected followed by "affiliation" and "nurturance." Moreover, the relationship between the causes and the effects was further understood.

The fantastic light of firefly, which keeps fascinating the heart of Japanese from ancient time, and the ecosystem, are taken up as one of cure fields being benefit from the nature. In this study, from the viewpoints of semantic differentials and engineering, we focused on the light of firefly, and we examined whether they cause the human spirit any effects or not. It was possible to find for welfare utilizations that there is the high possibility that a sufficient cure effect exists in the light emission pattern of firefly and the ecosystem. This research is the first basic trial turned to the creation of cure space for hospices and welfare facilities, which utilize the firefly and the mini ecosystem artificially modeled in an enclosure.

Evaluating supply chain management is important because it helps to find out supply chain's weakness. Customers' satisfactions is one of important topics because a propose of supply chain management is to satisfy customers requirements. If an organization lacks satisfaction of customer needs, it will lose an opportunity in business. Usually, agricultural supply chain consists of a manufacture and several suppliers. In this case, the manufacture has to evaluate performances of chains with possible suppliers. The manufacture may replace some suppliers to improve their customers' satisfactions. However, the current evaluate methods cannot be used such usage because the methods cannot consider a situation in which some suppliers are replaced. Therefore, a new evaluation model is proposed. The proposed model allows the users to inspect a chain's efficiency with considering to replace some of supply chain suppliers. In order to show the ability of the method, a case study of Thai frozen shrimp industry is shown and the results is discussed.

Various robots had been developed lately, not only for industrial use but for home use too. In our previous study, we had developed a playmate robot system that is designed to play with children. Child personality observation is important during play situations for smooth interaction, in order to sustain the child's interest. Therefore, we considered that the robot system should be able to distinguish children's personality types or tendencies. As a result, the relationship between the child's personality test score and head movement observed during the robot play interaction was found to be significant. This suggests the possibility of an adaptive robot system that plays with children in accordance to each child personality.

This study aims to clarify the semantic processing mechanism of pictures, in which pictures and their meanings are not the same. Meanings are sent out from pictures using all conceptual extension mechanisms such as synecdoche, metonymy and metaphor. Time required to judge the relationship between picture and meaning depends on these types of figures of speech. This mechanism was examined in relation to two strategies, word association and perceptual simulation, which were employed to determine the relationship between picture and meaning. It was assumed that the "mechanism for recognition of figures of speech"would determine the strategy, and these strategies would generate differences in reaction time. We verified this hypothesis through two tasks, by changing variable conditions. As a result, it was found that at least synecdoche and metonymy could be treated as specific recognition mechanisms for which word association and perceptual simulation were suitable in meaning processing.
