Hi people,

Check out the article "The Best Of Times" in 10th April 1999 issue of New Scientist. If you don't get New Scientist and can't find it at the library, I have put a copy of it online at my webpage. It is only a fairly short article.

A lot of the article covers stuff we have examined more fully here but there are a number of particularly interesting things (with links) there. I'm particularly interested in the work by Naoko Tosa and Ryohei Nakatsu which recognises not only what you are saying but also the emotion with which you say it. I don't know how applicable that would be to English because of the way a lot of the meaning of Japanese is carried in the tone and pitch of speech.

There are a number of other neat things in there.

Cheers,


All I want is a kind word and a warm bed and unlimited power.
