Emotion generation for an artiicial agent aspire to give computers some level of understanding about what it might be like to have aaective states. Generating states for a computer system with similar properties and/or functions to human emotion, might be one of the rst steps in building such an understanding. We propose a computational design for modeling aaect generation using a hybrid archit...

conclusions the potential risk and prevalence of ulmsds among computer users of medical sciences university were less than those of technical-engineering university due to following ergonomic principles. rula found to be a proper method for the assessment of the ergonomic risk factors of the ulmsds in order to prevent such disorders. background along with widespread use of computers, work-relat...

Ballengee and Sessions (2009) claim that predatory attacks by small predators such as Sympetrum dragonfly larvae are sufficient to explain amphibian limb deformities in which the limb is partly or completely missing. This deformity type, the most common in nature, is not well explained by Ribeiroia infection which has also been nominated as a mechanism for limb deformities. We argue that the co...

This paper employs an arti cial agent{based computational approach to understanding and designing laboratory environments in which to test Kiyotaki and Wright's search model of money. The behavioral rules of the arti cial agents are modeled on the basis of prior evidence from human subject experiments. Simulations of the arti cial agent{based model are conducted in two new versions of the Kiyot...

search director of the Pain Clinic at Montreal General Hospital. His work on the neurophysi-ology of pain spans almost four decades. After obtaining his Ph.D. in psychology at McGill in 1954 and taking up fellowships in the U.S. and abroad, he joined the faculty of the Mas-sachusetts Institute of Technology in 1959. There he and Patrick D. Wall began discussions that led to the publication in 1...
