Emotion based Agent Architectures for Tutoring Systems The INES Architecture

In this paper we discuss our approach to integrate emotions in the agent based tutoring system INES (Intelligent Nursing Education System). First we discuss the INES system where we emphasize the emotional component of the system. Afterwards we show how a more advanced emotion generation architecture, SHAME, can be integrated in INES. Then we show how INES can be extended with an action selecti...

A New Emotional Architecture for Cognitive Tutoring Agents

In this paper we describe the reproduction of emotional mechanisms in the cognitive agent CTS (Conscious Tutoring System). The model replicates the amygdala’s emotional influence over different parts of the system as a means of preparing the system for action, biasing action selection and improving the agent's self-resilience in an unknown or changing environment.

Designing Emotions for Activity Selection

This paper advocates a “bottom-up” philosophy for the design of emotional systems for autonomous agents that is guided by functional concerns, and considers the particular case of designing emotions as mechanisms for action selection. The concrete realization of these ideas implies that the design process must start with an analysis of the requirements that the features of the environment, the ...

Architectural Mechanisms for the Dynamic Modification of Action Selection Strategies

Action selection is typically a “built-in” feature of agent architectures and hence not subject to change in instantiated architectures. While often (especially in simple agents) this lack of flexibility does not matter, there are circumstances where dynamic adjustments of an action selection strategy are desirable. In this paper, we present an architecture framework, called APOC, that provides...

An Emotion-Based "Conscious" Software Agent Architecture

Evidence of the role of emotions in the action selection processes of environmentally situated agents continues to mount. This is no less true for autonomous software agents. Here we are concerned with such software agents that model a psychological theory of consciousness, global workspace theory. We briefly describe the architecture of two such agents, CMattie and IDA, and the role emotions p...
