Un modèle dynamique de comportement agent à base de besoins (poster)

The modeling of agents’ behavior is always a significant aspect in multiagents systems’ design. Our approach in this paper consists on proposing a model which, instead of directly defining a hierarchy of actions, specifies a set of needs. This model is inspired from the work of the psychologist Abraham Maslow, about the hierarchical human (but also animals) needs. We show that this structure is more advantageous than the first one, particularly on two aspects: an easier control and choice of agent's actions as well as a better management of the level conflicts, a problem generally found in hierarchical models. This present work is necessary to underpin the design of socially intelligent Agents. MOTS-CLÉS : agent, comportement, besoins, actions.
