Affective Computing
Affective computing represents a broad, interdisciplinary research and practice area focusing on a range of topics, including: affect-adaptive human-computer interaction, affective user modeling, computational models of emotion, cognitive-affective agent architectures; emotion sensing and recognition; and emotion expression. The course will introduce students to the theories, methods and techniques required to design and develop affective computing systems.
Hispanic Genre Films
(Offered as SPAN 238, EUST 248, and FAMS 352.) This course will be an introduction to genre films from Argentina, Cuba, Mexico, and Spain. We will study Hispanic interpretations of filmic genres such as melodrama, thriller, comedy, horror and musical. How did these genres develop? How stable are genre conventions? Is it possible to study national cinemas in the time of transnational films?
