Abstract

In line with the multi-disciplinary growing interest in emotions and the scientific proof of their usefulness for taking decisions, scholars, in agent-oriented systems, start to account for emotions when building upon intelligence and realism in rational agents. As a result, several computational models of emotions were developed and new architectures for emotional artificial agents were proposed, in particular the Emotional Belief Desire Intention (EBDI) agents. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive description of two computational models which are used to generate immediate and expected emotions. These models will be incorporated within an EBDI agent architecture that takes into consideration these two types of emotions. …
