Building a human-dog interaction inspired emotional engine model

We propose a state space based engineering solution for the emotional engine model of an artificial agent. Our model takes its inspirations from the evolution theory and the latest achievements of human-dog interaction research. We present our emotional model together with its background, show our simulation results and present the ongoing work concerning the applications that we chose to be extended by our engineering solution.
