Affective computing is a branch of Artificial Intelligence sciences that deals with the design of systems that can recognize, understand, process and simulate human affects. It is an interdisciplinary field spanning computer sciences, psychology and cognitive science. The technology plays an important role in developing human-centric systems that can perceive and respond to human emotions. It analyzes human affect display like facial expressions, speech, gestures, posts on social networking sites and physiological signals in real time. With advancements in deep learning and AI, affective computing systems are becoming more sophisticated in detecting a wide range of human emotions and sentiments with higher accuracy. This evolution is expected to drive new applications of the technology across healthcare, education, automotive, media and entertainment among others.
