Metahumans: FEER and Social-Emotional Mimicry Exercises
摘要
Existing literature shows Facial Emotion Expression Recognition (FEER) is impaired in persons with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), with some research theorising that impaired FEER is the primary cause of deficits in social communication and interaction. Other literature directly relates ASD social communication and interaction deficits to impairments in Emotional Mimicry. The proposed study design leverages advances in the generation of High Realism Avatars and Marker-less Motion Capture to create an intuitive training and testing application to further explore these effects.
