Abstract
This paper presents the introduction of emotion-based mechanisms in the TRIPLE ECA model. TRIPLE is a hybrid cognitive model consisting of three interacting modules – the reasoning, the connectionist, and the emotion engines – running in parallel. The interplay between these three modules is discussed in the paper with a focus on the role and implementation of the emotion engine which is based on the FAtiMA agent architecture. The influence of emotions in TRIPLE is related to the volume of the working memory, the speed of the inference mechanisms, the interaction between the reasoning and the connectionist engine, and the connectionist engine itself. Emotions will increase the most important cognitive aspects of the model like context sensitivity, rich experiential episodic knowledge and anticipatory mechanisms.
