Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present an emotional-based application for human-agent societies. This kind of applications are those where virtual agents and humans coexist and interact transparently into a fully integrated environment. Specifically, the paper presents an application where humans are immersed into a system that extracts and analyzes the emotional states of a human group trying to maximize the welfare of that humans by playing the most appropriate music in every moment. This system can be used not only online, calculating the emotional reaction of people in the bar to a new song, but also in simulation, to predict the people’s reaction to changes in music or in the bar layout.
