Action and attribute feeding

Learn about setting up manual and automated feeding of actions and attributes.

Actions are executable instructions that solutions powered by Affective Computing deliver to end-users through an interface (web or mobile).

For example, the action pool could include an executable instruction to greet each end user with the following message: “Hello there!”. Affective Computing could be instructed to use this action whenever the end-user is detected by a camera through facial recognition. (The conditions of delivering the action need to be defined in using logics.)

Actions such as these can be created manually or auto-fed. To ease your work in curating an action pool for their solution, Affective Computing (powered by Virtue) supports the following ways of auto-feeding:

• Establishing a connection to a source.

• Uploading a PDF document.

Attributes can be considered as folders that group actions; they help to shape and classify actions and streamline their delivery. When feeding actions into Affective Computing from an external source, you can also import the attributes that group them.

If you disable action anchoring, Affective Computing (powered by Virtue), with the help of EDAA™, its underlying technology, can generate new actions related to existing ones that were fed previously into your projects.

To ensure proper performance of your solution, you must validate all generated actions.

Advantage

This feature enables clients to streamline action feeding for their solution.

Use case

When building a solution that requires feeding of a significant volume of actions (for example, an entire personalized interactive experience powered by Affective Computing), you can avoid the manual work of action and attribute creation and utilize our auto-feeding capabilities.
