Toward a Comprehensive Computational Model of Emotions and Feelings.
Robert Marinier, John E. Laird · 2004
We describe a computational framework for emotions and feelings that combines biological, cognitive, and social influences. The framework, Soar-Emote, combines ideas from Damasio and Gratch & Marsella. From Damasio we include physiological influences, ideas about the differences between emotions and feelings, and the direction of causality. From Gratch we include cognitive and social influences, appraisal theory and coping. We give results that show that these systems influence agent behavior for a simple interactive game.
