In this paper, we propose a limbic-based artificial emotional neural network (LiAENN) for a pattern recognition problem. LiAENN is a novel computational neural model of the emotional brain that models emotional situations such as anxiety and confidence in the learning process, the short paths, the forgetting processes, and inhibitory mechanisms of the emotional brain. In the model, the learning...

The paper describes progress towards producing deep models of emotion. It does this by working towards the development of a single explanatory framework to account for diverse psychological phenomena where control is lost. Emotion theories are reviewed to show how emotions can be described according to various emotional components and emotional phases. When applied in isolation these components...

In this paper, I first address what medical students learn about appropriate (or tolerated) professional attitudes and emotions in the clinical context and how the performance of emotional positions that create distance between doctor and patient and the defining of patients as other is encouraged through the informal and hidden curricula. Next, I examine what we know about medical students’ em...

This paper describes how personalities influence the behaviour of emotional agents. Two different emotional models are discussed, namely the OCC emotion model and the emotion-connectionist model. In both models personalities changes the behaviour on a different way. This paper also presents an implementation of a prototype to evaluate the performance of the different personalities in the emotio...

This review briefly summarises recent research on the neural basis of cognition in depression. Two broad areas are covered: emotional and non-emotional processing. We consider how research findings support models of depression based on disrupted cortico-limbic circuitry, and how modern connectivity analysis techniques can be used to test such models explicitly. Finally we discuss clinical impli...
