How One Intelligent Machine Learned to Recognize Human Emotions

Nobody knew how to identify people’s emotional states by looking at their brain waves. Then a machine learning algorithm stepped in. When it comes to communication, humans are hugely sensitive to each other’s emotional states. Indeed, most people expect their emotional state to be taken into account by their correspondents. And when this happens, communication...
