Emotions as a Vehicle for Rationality: Rational Decision Making Models Based on Emotion-Related Valuing and Hebbian Learning
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper an adaptive decision model based on predictive loops through feeling states is analysed from the perspective of rationality. Hebbian learning is considered for different types of connections in the decision model. To assess the extent of rationality, a measure is introduced reflecting the environment’s behaviour. Simulation results and the extents of rationality of the different models over time are presented and analysed.

On Rationality of Decision Models Incorporating Emotion-Related Valuing and Hebbian Learning
In this paper an adaptive decision model based on predictive loops through feeling states is analysed from the perspective of rationality. Four different variations of Hebbian learning are considered for different types of connections in the decision model. To assess the extent of rationality, a measure is introduced reflecting the environment’s behaviour. Simulation results and the extents of ...
متن کاملRationality for Adaptive Collective Decision Making Based on Emotion-Related Valuing and Contagion
In this paper it is explored how adaptive collective decision making can be evaluated with respect to learning speed and rationality of the decisions. A collective decision model is presented based on interacting adaptive agents that learn from their experiences by a Hebbian learning mechanism. The decision making process makes use of emotionrelated valuing of decision options on the one hand b...
متن کاملModelling Joint Decision Making Processes Involving Emotion-Related Valuing and Empathic Understanding
In this paper a social agent model for joint decision making is presented addressing the role of mutually acknowledged empathic understanding in the decision making. The model is based on principles from recent neurological theories on mirror neurons, internal simulation, and emotion-related valuing. Emotion-related valuing of decision options and mutual contagion of intentions and emotions bet...
متن کاملEffect of Emotion and Personality on Deviation from Purely Rational Decision-Making
Human decision-making has consistently demonstrated deviation from “pure” rationality. Emotions are a primary driver of human actions and the current study investigates how perceived emotions and personality traits may affect decision-making during the Ultimatum Game (UG). We manipulated emotions by showing images with emotional connotation while participants decided how to split money with a s...
متن کاملMaxine: Embodied Conversational Agents for Multimodal Emotional Communication
Emotions are fundamental to human experience, influencing cognition, perception and everyday tasks such as learning, communication and even rational decision-making. Humancomputer interaction (HCI) systems capable of sensing user affective state and giving adequate affective feedback are, therefore, likely to be perceived as more natural, persuasive and trustworthy (Cassell & Bickmore, 2000). A...
