Abstract

To develop believable agents, agents should be highly autonomous, situated, flexible, and emotional. By this study, our aim is to present an agent architecture called Reactive-Causal Architecture that supports development of believable agents.

This work is supported in part by Australian Research Council under Discovery Project No. DP0452628.
