• A need for cyberemotions research due to growing role of ICT-mediated social interactions and some specific attributes of e-communities.
� Data on human emotions and their influence on the structure of sustainable cooperative communities will be collected from: - psychophysiological experiments, - blogosphere, newsgroups and Internet discussion forums.The data will be compared to comp. simulat. based on active agent models.
� Research tools consist of combination of methods and paradigms taken fromvarious domains:
- psychological models of emotional interactions- algorithms for detection/classification of human emotions in the Internet- data driven simulations based on heterogeneous emotionally-reacting agents - methods of statistical physics (fluctuation-dissip. theorem, Onsager relations) - sociophysics models (eg. bounded confidence, events cascades) - self-organized evolving networks.
Expected impact
• new classes of realistic models of emotionally reacting users
• new kind of intellgent self-adapting programms, cyber-tutors, cyber-advisors for e-communities
• strengthening societal ties in the intercultural and multinational European Community (long).

Emotions - processes that relate to responses to events of personalrelevance. They are influenced by cultural and social context and biologicalconstraints. At the individual level these processes manifest themselves atphysiological, behavioral, and subjective levels. We are interested not onlyin individual emotions, but also in emerging properties of emotions ingroups at different levels of resolution.
Project features

Basis of conceptual and methodological approach - complex systems
Theoretical and algorithmics foundations:
•Multi-level emotions analysis; •micro: cyber-physiological observations of individualemotions,
•meso: collective and group based emotions in variouse-communities,
•Macro: emergence of economical or social crisis e.g. changes in trends of Apple shares dynamics due to (possible) messages/gossips on new ipods.
•Group feedback mechanism, interactions betweenusers and online contents, self-organisation, andhierarchical structure of socio-technical networks.

Data driven simulations:
Heterogeneous active agents models based on: (1) emotions observed in psycho-physiological data; (2) data on emotions received from blogs, newsgroups
and forums;

WP2 - Emotionally reacting active agents
• Virtual Society composed of Virtual Agents, capable of reactions, emotions, and social behaviour
• four modules: o perception, o generation of emotions,o selection of behaviours o execution of actions
12
Virtual Society and crowd• Modelling social behaviour
using interpersonal relationships and nonverbal communication
• Virtual agents will interact by adopting postures in response to postures of others.
• Virtual crowd visualisation software extended to emotional and interpersonal relationships

WorkPackage 3: Methods for identification of collective emotions in e-communities
• O3.1: Develop methods to identify the emotional contentof blog debates and the impact of the emotion on the outcome of the debates
• O3.2: Develop methods to identify the emotional contentof exchanges between friends in social networks and methods to identify deviant non-emotional friendships that are potentially indicative of stalking, grooming or other criminal behaviour
• O3.3: Develop methods to identify the emotional contentof newsgroup postings and the impact on the mid- to long-term development of relationships between individuals as well as on the development of whole communities
WP 4: Interactive tools for acquisition and influence of
affective states in e-communities
O4.1: Development of a dialog system for the acquisition of affective states O4.2: Employing a dialog system for interactions with users for the acquisition of affective states in relation to entities, events and processesO4.3: Implementation of a software framework for the development of interactive tools (bots) O4.4: Exploration of possibilities to influence users’emotions in experimental environment representing real-world e-communities

Dialog system• gathers information about users’
attitude and affective states toward events, processes and other participants of online discussions
• extended, real-time interaction with a user
• input from, cooperation with– emotion detection and
classification, data sets (WP3)
– communication strategies, experiments (WP7)
Internet bots• provide content to users and attempt
to influence their attitude and affective states
• interaction with users in an experimental environment representing real-world e-communities (internet forum, blogs)
• input from, cooperation with
• models: human – bot interactions, emotions in e-communities (WP1,WP5,WP6)
• emotionally charged content, experiments with users (WP7)

Monitoring Monitoring
Reacting on the events
� Develop a model of emotion dynamics in cyberspace
� Analyse the role of emotions in e.g.� streams of user reviews and
ratings for products and movies� forum communications of open
source projects → Forking risk� Use the model as input for
� virtual realities which act emotionally
� strategies of an automatic dialog system which plans to influence collective emotion dynamics

Sequential development of experimental paradigms with increasing complexity to
deliver data for modeling. Source materials relate in part to data provided by WP3
and WP5. Other data are gained from online interactions at Jacobs University and
across multiple sites.

Misja KRAB-a
Krajowa Rada Koordynatorów Projektów Badawczych UE (KRAB) powstała jako Stowarzyszenie dla wymiany doświadczeń z realizacji projektów między swoimi członkami oraz miedzy innymi podmiotami. Chcielibyśmy promować dobre praktyki profesjonalnego prowadzenia projektów badawczych i promować polskie uczestnictwo w Programach Ramowych UE. Nasz statut przewiduje współpracę z administracjąrządową, samorządowa oraz innymi podmiotami związanymi z realizacją projektów UE. Chcielibyśmy również podejmować działania i rekomendować zmiany prawne potrzebne dla udziału polskich naukowców w programach badawczo-rozwojowych UE. Nasze cele zamierzamy realizować m.in. przez organizację spotkań i sympozjów związanych z realizacją projektów UE w Polsce oraz przez przekazywanie do odpowiednich podmiotów w Polsce i UE opinii o problemach realizacji projektów. Uważamy, że do problemów tych należą m.in.: duże dysproporcje miedzy wynagrodzeniami wykonawców projektów w Polsce i w Europie Zachodniej, brak stabilnych rozwiązań prawnych dla prowadzenia projektów i brak profesjonalnej kadry managerskiej wspomagającej projekty w Polsce.
