Abstract

Modelling real persons or virtual agents motivations, personality and emotions is a key feature of many user-oriented applications. Most of the previous work has defined rich cognitive models of motivations, personality and emotions, but have relied on some kind of reactive scheme of problem solving and execution. Instead, this work proposes a deliberative emotional model for virtual agents based in their basic needs, preferences and personality traits. More specifically, we advocate the integration of these comprehensive agents models within deliberative automated planning techniques, so that plans to be executed by agents to achieve their goals already incorporate reasoning at the emotional level.
