The role of episodic memory and emotion in a cognitive robot

The design and creation of an episodic memory system for a cognitive robot is detailed. This memory system is interfaced with a machine emotion system with the goal of producing intelligent behaviors in a cognitive humanoid robot. The design of the system is tested and analyzed through the explanation of a case in which emotion assists in the retrieval of an episode.
