可以知道你喜怒哀乐的手机应用

The new speech-focused tools come as other companies are marketing body-language and facial-recognition sentiment-analysis tools -- including an app for Google Inc.'s Google Glass.

在这些新的语音分析工具面世之际，其他公司也在销售身体语言和面部识别类的情绪分析工具，比如一款针对谷歌公司(Google Inc.)“谷歌眼镜”(Google Glass)的应用。

Voice-recognition and analysis specialists say there is no question that emotions and patterns of speech can be linked. But many say the utility of the analysis can be limited by the extent to which voice samples have been collected -- often requiring years of samples to detect variations caused by emotions.

语音识别与分析专家说，情绪和语音形态可能存在关联，这一点勿庸置疑。但很多人说，这类分析的实用性可能受制于语音样本的采集规模，常常需要采集多年的样本才能侦测到情绪造成的变异。

Andrew Baron, assistant professor of psychology at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, says information produced by a lot of the commercially focused voice-recognition technology can be 'fuzzy.'

温哥华英属哥伦比亚大学(University of British Columbia)心理学助理教授安德鲁・巴伦(Andrew Baron)说，很多以商业为重的语音识别技术所产生的信息都有可能是“失真”的。

'We simply don't have the technology today, at the level of cognitive neuroscience, to really know the precise content of a person's thought or emotion,' Mr. Baron says.
