Comments on which emotion components should be covered by the language + use cases

Dear all,

Please find below two general comments.
I did not include them in the wiki page as I did not find a relevant 
single place where to put them.

Best regards,

WHICH COMPONENTS OF EMOTION SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE REPRESENTATION LANGUAGE
We might want to state clearly the components of emotions that are to be 
covered by the language (eg in (Scherer 00): physiological arousal, 
motor expression, action tendencies and subjective feeling).
For example, should the language enable to represent action tendencies?
Where is annotated the fact that a given representation of an emotion is 
the representation of a subjective feeling?
We might annotate the component(s) of the emotion that is (are) 
annotated in the section on "Emotion Core".

SHOW IN USE CASES HOW THE LANGUAGE ENABLES TO COVER DIFFERENT 
THEORETICAL APPROACHES
In order to show the coverage of the language, we should put as a 
requirement that it should enable to represent emotion according to 
different models: categorial, dimensional, appraisal, OCC, PAD... The 
use cases so far have focused on applications (annotation, detection and 
generation) rather than covering different theoretical approaches and 
models. When reconsidering the use cases (once we have improved the 
definition of the language), we might want  to take a single example and 
describe different representations of this example according to 
different models (and not a single whole representation of the example 
which would be to complex and not readable).
We should also use the language to describe examples that focus on one 
section of the requirements : mixed emotions, regulation, ...
Would it be relevant to point or include in the use case document a link 
to publicly available video/animation clips (e.g. from the pilot 
database or others) described in the examples ?
