from Part IV - Computational Modeling in Various Cognitive Fields
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 April 2023
Recent decades have witnessed a rapid growth in computational emotion modeling. Models are being developed to enhance believability and autonomy of virtual agents and robots, and for basic research purposes, to help elucidate mechanisms mediating affective processes in biological agents.This chapter provides a comprehensive introduction and state-of-the-art overview of this emerging subdiscipline within the broader area of affective computing, focusing on models at the psychological (vs. neuroscience) level, and those that emphasize cognition emotion interactions.Following an overview of emotion research from psychology, the theoretical foundations for model design are discussed. An analytical framework is then introduced, to promote a more abstract perspective on model design and analysis, followed by a discussion of specific approaches to modeling emotion generation and emotion effects, along with examples of representative models.The chapter concludes with a discussion of model validation and evaluation, and highlights some of the open questions and key challenges.
