Abstract

Research agendas aimed at the development of socially believable behaving systems often indicate automatic social perception as one of the steps. However, the exact meaning of the word “perception” seems still to be unclear in the computing community, in particular when it applies to social and psychological phenomena that are not accessible to direct observation. This chapter tries to shed light on the problem by showing examples of approaches that perform Automatic Personality Perception, i.e. the prediction of personality traits that people attribute to others.
