An Algorithm Based on an Appraisal Theory to Control a Khepera Robot

Contents

In the last few years, the emotion process was gener-ally considered as a special mechanism for adaptation, -because it is a specific case of a brain process in which a stimulus evaluation is linked with a behavioral reac-tion. It seems interesting to explicit this process in a formal definition to test a model. This paper focuses on the definition of a specific model of emotion (appraisal model) for a robot.
