Logical Reasoning and Emotional Response System using Structured Association Technique

There are several methods to implement the logical machine reasoning such as a frame theory and a production system of artificial intelligence. And these algorithms can explain the obtained result through the inference processes. However, emotional (KANSEI) patterns are not so easily implement. One of reason is that some emotional expression is the result of process from unconscious level to conscious level, and not easily identified the original unconscious causes. Therefore, a function of KANSEI database needs to structuralize unconscious level. Our approach is to develop the computerized counseling support system which can structuralize the unconscious brain functions from the view point of the psychology with focusing physiological and emotional responses. Especially, development of the algorithm that can form the network from unconscious to conscious using the image recollection is the application of the structured association technique (SAT). The developed system was implemented on the Web using CGI and emotional network database.
