Abstract(in English) To emulate human emotions in robots, the mathematical representation of emotion is important for all components of affective computing such as emotion recognition, generation, and expression. There are several methods to represent emotions by vectors of continuous values and mapping them from uni-modality data to low-dimensional space. However, the representation of emotions obtained by uni-modality data seems to depend on such modality. In this study, we proposed integrating multi-modalities on a DNN acquiring mathematical representation (emotional space) of emotion. We aim at the acquisition of emotional space which does not depend on modalities by combining recognition task and unification task. Experiments with audio-visual data have confirmed two things. First, there are differences in the emotional space acquired from a single modality. Second, the proposed method can acquire a modality independent emotional space.
