....the output of each releaser must first pass through the affectlye assessment stage in order to influence emotional behavior. Within this assessment stage, each releaser is evaluated in affectlye terms and tagged with affectlye information (inspired by the somatic marker hypothesis proposed in [15]) There are three classes of tags that are used to affectively characterize its perceptual, motivational, and behavioral input. Each tag has an associated intensity that scales its contribution to the overall affectlye state. The arousal tag, A, specifies how energizing this percept is where ....

....StartleCam has an advantage over software agents that use a priori belief models of the user preferences [Mae94] althoughagents may someday use these cues to help train their belief models. The startle response has been linked to reactions of sudden fright [LeD94] anticipation of bad results [Dam94], and stressful situations [Hel78] Lev92] that are deviations from homeostasis [LG88] It is also often referred to as the orienting response, because any interruption in attention can generate it, not jut the extreme startle reaction. By saving images when the startle response is detected, the ....

....any interruption in attention can generate it, not jut the extreme startle reaction. By saving images when the startle response is detected, the StartleCam application models the wearer s own capacity for selective memory, according to a theory that memories are formed when survival is threatened [Dam94]. This effect is what is responsible for the the so called flashbulb memory [BK77] where extremely arousing events seem to be highlighted and stored with unusual clarity. StartleCam offers three different modes of operation, direct control, automatic logging, and image series capture. The camera ....

....he believes the CSEM s values to be. Each continuously changing CSEM effectively reflects the interaction history between the wolf and some bit of his context, without the need for specific memories of past interactions. Our CSEMs are based on the somatic marker hypothesis presented by Damasio [10], in which he proposes that people attach emotional significance to stimuli that they encounter in their environment, and then re experience that emotion when they encounter those stimuli on future occasions. Other researchers have implemented models of emotional learning or memory, for example ....

....be displayed differently. Although personality is not the only determiner of emotions, their intensity, and their manifestation, we will use it as the first step in the creation of consistent individuality. 4. 1 Modeling Emotion Several different emotion models have been applied to virtual beings [15, 19, 25]. The most popular model is the OCC model, named after the authors [28] In this model, emotions are generated through the agent s construal of and reaction to the consequence of events, actions of agents, and aspects of objects. Although many researchers have based their work on this model [18, ....

This hypothesis proposes that people (and animals) attach emotional significance to stimuli that they encounter in their environment, and then reexperience that emotion when they encounter those stimuli on future occasions. Various researchers have addressed the significant role that emotions ....

....of B will influence its current emotional state in proportion to its confidence in that model. The formula by Although the social relationship mechanism that we describe treats individuals as emotional significant stimuli, a stimulus does not have to be an individual only a causative entity [12]. Forming emotional memories of other kinds of stimuli (e.g. the presence of two wolves at the same time) could result in other kinds of relationships (e.g. alliance formation) which the emotional memory is applied to the current emotional state is: E# ## # = C E m ) 1 C) E) where ....

The emergence of A ective Computing as an area of practical scienti c study is very recent [Pic97] although this builds on experimental and theoretical work established over the last 30 years (see e.g. SC81, OCC88] It is argued by Damasio [Dam94] and Picard [Pic97] that a ective state is a key component of the human ability to reason : Evidence like this leads Dr. Damasio to the counter intuitive position that feelings are typically indispensable for rational decisions ; they point us in the proper direction, where dry logic can then ....

....the thinking brain plays an executive role in our emotions except in those moments when emotions surge out of control and the emotional brain runs rampant. Gol96] Support for this hypothesis is given by Damasio s studies on humans whose emotional capacity has been limited due to brain injury [Dam94] The assumptions of this argument have, however, been challenged by Sloman [Slo99] Damasio, Picard and others have misinterpreted the evidence about brain damage in Damasio s book as implying that emotions are essential to intelligence. This is a simple non sequitur. Certain sorts of ....

.... overwhelmingly supported by several experts, only to find out later that most of these were based on the same questionable information item whereas in retrospect the minority had access to what turned out to be more relevant and true information) New ideas on cognition (for a popular account see[13]) as well as old ideas in semiotics[30] also explain why it is completely natural to assume that an individual is not centrally controlled, but that her biological inference mechanisms are well suited to entertaining a set of probability distributions as her epistemic state. This view is also ....

.... computing is often taken to mean the linking of the agent state to facial and body expressions, vocal intonation, and humorous or quirky animation effects: e.g. see [2, 7 8] However, recent theories identify emotions as vital to the decision making process and to manage competing motivations [14]. According to these theories, integrating emotion models into our agents will yield not only better decision makers, but also more realistic behavior by providing a deep model of utility. These agents will delicately balance, for example, threat elimination versus self preservation, in much the ....

....OCC model indicates what emotions arise when events, actions, or objects in the world are construed, but not what causes those emotions or what actions an agent is likely to take as a result. There is no connection between emotion and world values, even though other theories suggest such a link [14, 16 17]. In contrast, concern or value ontologies are readily available in the open literature (e.g. the ten commandments or the Koran for a moral code, military doctrine for action guidance, etc. and may readily be utilized to implement an agent of a given type in the framework we present here. We ....

....a large number of cues, cooperating and competing to gain the attention of an individual. Hence, each individual cue plays some role in influencing the outcome, and not one single cue assumes the sole responsibility for outcomes. This view has been shared across a wide number of disciplines, see [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]. We believe these ideas provide a powerful clue as to how humanoid interaction should be. Nature also provides to us the knowledge that the inner working mechanisms should function as a whole, not purely as individual components. Our initial aim is to brings forward these views, in producing a ....

....sensory systems tend to be alter based on some selective occasion, depending on the mood of an individual at that particular time. Many other factors also comes into play, a well know phenomenon exhibited by a person, is the decay in response to a continuous stimulus over some duration of time [1, 2, 5]. 4.2 Auditory response Spatial hearing In our examination of auditory processing, we provided the ability for our system to perform left and right spatial discrimination. For instance, auditory servoing can be achieved by moving the head neck in a pan motion, while minimising the volume of ....

....and many issues are thus the same. But there is more. The emphasis on emotional skills in both product and human computer design is growing as well. Product design changes into designing contexts for experience [7] The Media Lab at MIT i s researching affective computing [8] Damasios book [2] has shown that pure logic alone, without emotional value, leaves a person, or a machine for that matter, indecisive. In this paper we argue that emotions and actions are closely intertwined. We use actions as the source of information to get to emotions. Indeed, people should be able to ....
