Abstract
Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs) are getting more and more important in a hyper-connected society. Traditional HMIs are built considering cognitive features while emotional ones are often neglected, bringing sometimes such interfaces to misuse. As a part of a long run research, oriented to the definition of an HMI engineering approach, this paper concretely proposes a method to build an emotional-aware explicit model of the user starting from the behaviour of the human with a virtual agent. The paper also proposes an instance of this model inference process in voice assistants in an automatic depression context, which can constitute the core phase to realize a Human Digital Twin of a patient. The case study generated a model composed of Fluid Stochastic Petri Net sub-models, achieved after the data analysis by a Support Vector Machine. © 2023 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.
