An Interdisciplinary Approach for a Holistic and Embodied Emotion Model in Humanoid Agents

Computational models of the human decision making process have already enabled several insights and applications. Nevertheless, such models have only recently begun to consider that simply modelling rational decision making was insufficient to represent human behavior. Recent efforts have started to consider this factor by utilizing computational models of emotions. One of the most significant challenges to be faced here is the interdisciplinary cooperation required in order to develop a holistic and integrated model, which reflects aspects of embodiment and is integrated in a holistic cognitive architecture. In this paper we will analyse how models from relevant disciplines can support us in outlining an overview model which considers the mentioned criteria.
