TL;DR
Together, these three experiments show a range of success in recognizing affect from physiology, highlighting the need for more automatic context sensing in unconstrained conditions, and showing high recognition rates given somewhat constrained conditions.

It is shown that sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous activity make frequency-specific contributions to the heart rate power spectrum, and that renin-angiotensin system activity strongly modulates the amplitude of the spectral peak located at 0.04 hertz.

Components of heart rate variability have attracted considerable attention in psychology and medicine and have become important dependent measures in psychophysiology and behavioral medicine.

2,699 Citations1983Paul Ekman, Robert W. Levenson +1 more
Emotion-specific activity in the autonomic nervous system was generated by constructing facial prototypes of emotion muscle by muscle and by reliving past emotional experiences, and distinguished not only between positive and negative emotions, but also among negative emotions.

This work studies the problem of choosing an optimal feature set for land use classification based on SAR satellite images using four different texture models and shows that pooling features derived from different texture Models, followed by a feature selection results in a substantial improvement in the classification accuracy.
Psychological ReviewAre there basic emotions?
2,066 Citations1992Paul Ekman
The evidence on universals in expression and in physiology strongly suggests that there is a biological basis to the emotions that have been studied and the utility of the basic emotions approach is shown in terms of the research it has generated.
Advances in experimental social psychologyThe Interaction of Cognitive and Physiological Determinants of Emotional State
1,168 Citations1964Stanley Schachter
This chapter describes the implications of a cognitive-physiological formulation of emotion, and a series of experiments designed to test these implications suggest that given a state of physiological arousal for which an individual has no explanation, he labels this state in terms of the cognitions available to him, his feelings can be manipulated in diverse directions.

A provisional standard method of measuring tonic skin conductance and GSR (SCR) is advocated, using a constant-voltage method for which circuits are provided useable with Beckman, Grass, and other common polygraphs.

The most important application is the surveillance of postinfarction and diabetic patients to prevent sudden cardiac death and individual therapy adjustments to achieve the most favorable sympathetic-parasympathetic balance might be possible in the future.

Results suggest that positive emotions lead to alterations in HRV, which may be beneficial in the treatment of hypertension and in reducing the likelihood of sudden death in patients with congestive heart failure and coronary artery disease.

It is argued that spectral analysis of sinus arrhythmia is useful to obtain more insight into the physiological mechanisms that underlie heart-rate variability and the amplitude of the 0.10-Hz component of this signal systematically decreases as the load on working memory increases.
