Abstract(in English) In 2017, the Japanese government declared to start ``scientific long-term care'' as a national policy. In the practice of scientific long-term care, it is essential to assess the quality and effect of long-term care services, since the caregivers must know whether or not the care was effective for the target person. Currently, however, the assessment relies on a human subjective questionnaire and assessment sheets. Hence, it is difficult to justify the quality and effect as such the evidence encouraged in the scientific long-term care. To cope with the problem, this paper proposes Face Emotion Tracker (FET) that evaluates the effect of care as a transition of emotions of a person under care. The proposed system can produce real-time data quantifying emotions of the target person under care, which is more objective and fine-grained clinical data compared to the conventional manual assessment sheets. We also implement a prototype and perform experiments using the prototype.
