Sentic neurons: expanding intention awareness
View Patent ↗Embodiments of the present invention may provide techniques to create a new framework by this invention applying the theory of Sentic Computing. For example, in an embodiment of the present invention, a computer-implemented method for data analysis may comprise receiving input data representing circumstantial semantics, processing the received input data representing circumstantial semantics with Intention Awareness processing, receiving input data representing conceptual and affective information associated with objects and actors of the operating environment, processing the received input data representing conceptual and affective information associated with objects and actors of the operating environment with Sentic Computing, generating a mapping of the Intention Awareness processing data to a first multi-dimensional coordinate vector, generating a mapping of the Sentic Computing processed data to a second multi-dimensional coordinate vector, and generating output data by fusing the first vector and the second vector over time.
1. A method for predicting and understanding behavior based on data relating to objects and actors in an operating environment, the method implemented in a computer system comprising a processor, memory accessible by the processor, and computer program instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor, the method comprising: receiving input data including natural language, visual, auditory and textual data, and circumstantial semantics of the operating environment, wherein at least some of the data is received from behavior monitoring instrumentation; processing the received input data with Intention Awareness processing to find conceptual and affective information associated with the objects and actors of the operating environment, and to combine the conceptual and affective information with information relating to prior events to construct an event space from which human intentions can be inferred; processing the received input data with Sentic Computing processing by parsing sets of personality and sentiment data to derive mind state from the input data, determine mean sentiment value, and identify personality types based on metrics including extroversion and conscientiousness; generating a mapping of the Intention Awareness processed data to a first multi-dimensional coordinate vector; generating a mapping of the Sentic Computing processed data to a second multi-dimensional coordinate vector; and generating output data comprising a global multidimensional dynamic stream by fusing the first vector and the second vector over time, wherein the output data include a prediction of behavior of the objects and actors in the operating environment.

extracting concepts from the pre-processed data;
inferring semantics associated with the extracted concepts; and
extracting Sentic data from the inferred semantics.
5. A computer program product for predicting and understanding behavior based on data relating to objects and actors in an operating environment, the computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable storage having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a computer, to cause the computer to perform a method comprising: receiving input data including natural language, visual, auditory and textual data, and circumstantial semantics of the operating environment, wherein at least some of the data is received from behavior monitoring instrumentation; processing the received input data with Intention Awareness processing to find conceptual and affective information associated with the objects and actors of the operating environment, and to combine the conceptual and affective information with information relating to prior events to construct an event space from which human intentions can be inferred; processing the received input data with Sentic Computing processing by parsing sets of personality and sentiment data to derive mind state from the input data, determine mean sentiment value, and identify personality types based on metrics including extroversion and conscientiousness; generating a mapping of the Intention Awareness processed data to a first multi-dimensional coordinate vector; generating a mapping of the Sentic Computing processed data to a second multi-dimensional coordinate vector; and generating output data comprising a global multidimensional dynamic stream by fusing the first vector and the second vector over time, wherein the output data include a prediction of behavior of the objects and actors in the operating environment.
