Proposal of Evolutionary Computation Based on Physiological Index and Subjective Evaluation

Abstract

In this study, we propose evolutionary computation technique that uses physiological index and subjective evaluation as evaluation value. With this technique, the system provides and presents media contents to a user, and the user listens or watches and evaluates them as same as conventional evolutionary computation. In a same time, user's physiological signal is measured and used as evaluation value. As a concrete system, we construct an evolutionary computation system creating musical piece based on user's heartbeat information and simple subjective evaluation relating to relaxation and favor. Furthermore, an action of the system is fundamentally confirmed with listening experiment.
