Emotions aware framework for intuitive interaction
Year: 2024
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: This research focuses on integrating goal-directed behavior in a Digital Human by incorporating psychological and cognitive factors such as personality dynamics, emotional responses, memory, anticipation of future actions, and associated hedonic experiences. The proposed architecture enables the Digital Human to exhibit personality-driven behaviors and internal reactions to other emotions, influencing the decision-making processes. The Digital Human can interact intuitively with humans by displaying varying degrees of emotional sensitivity and environmental proactivity based on its personality. The framework is tested in a user study involving participants in a dyadic conversation scenario where the Digital Human's behavior is influenced by its assigned personality. The results indicate that the Digital Human's personality is perceptible to humans, and the agent is recognized as having cognitive and emotional intelligence. This demonstrates the potential of the framework to bridge the gap between cognitive and psychological agents.
