Abstract
Artificial intelligence is used in different fields. This paper describes a new opportunity to connect artificial intelligence to cognitive social psychology. We touch two important psychology paradigms: emotional and cognitive dissonance. Our hypotheses are proved using the new video based emotions analysis system (VEMOS) by testing labeled videos samples filmed by an actor according to specific scenarios and situations proposed by an expert on cognitive psychology describing the two paradigms. First, our approach has shown relevant results that confirm the notion of emotional and cognitive dissonance and the reliability of the intelligent system VEMOS on recognizing emotions efficiently. Then, we successfully add a new method of measuring a score of the individual emotional dissonance as well as his degree of spontaneity and degree of control.
