Applying machine consciousness models in autonomous situated agents
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper briefly describes the most relevant current approaches to the implementation of scientific models of consciousness. Main aspects of scientific theories of consciousness are characterized in sight of their possible mapping into artificial implementations. These implementations are analyzed both theoretically and functionally. Also, a novel pragmatic functional approach to machine consciousness is proposed and discussed. A set of axioms for the presence of consciousness in agents is applied to evaluate and compare the various

Artificial Life and Machine Consciousness
Over the last several decades research efforts have explored various forms of artificial life and embodied artificial life as methods for developing autonomous agents. Such approaches, although a part of the AI canon, are rarely used in research aimed at creating artificial general intelligence. This paper explores the prospects of using in silico artificial evolution to develop machine conscio...
متن کاملModeling Consciousness for Autonomous Robot Exploration
This work aims to describe the application of a novel machine consciousness model to a particular problem of unknown environment exploration. This relatively simple problem is analyzed from the point of view of the possible benefits that cognitive capabilities like attention, environment awareness and emotional learning can offer. The model we have developed integrates these concepts into a sit...
متن کاملAn Architecture for Emotion
The addition of emotions may be the key to producing rational behavior in autonomous agents. For situated agents, a different perspective on learning is proposed which relies on the agent’s ability to react in an emotional way to its dynamically changing environment. Here an architecture of mind is presented with the ability to display adaptive emotional states of varying types and intensities,...
متن کاملFrom the Perspective of Artificial Intelligence: A New Approach to the Nature of Consciousness
Consciousness is not only a philosophical but also a technological issue, since a conscious agent has evolutionary advantages. Thus, to replicate a biological level of intelligence in a machine, concepts of machine consciousness have to be considered. The widespread internalistic assumption that humans do not experience the world as it is, but through an internal ‘3D virtual reality model’, hin...
متن کاملAn 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...
