Abstract
- Abstract: In this paper a computational model is presented for how a desire triggers responses and feelings. The model shows how these feelings can be biased, for example due to addicting experiences in the past. Both the strength of a response and of the associated feeling result from a converging dynamic pattern modeled by reciprocal causal interactions between the two. The model has been used to conduct a number of simulation experiments under varying circumstances. Moreover, it has been evaluated by formal analysis of emerging patterns entailed by the model. Furthermore, it has been pointed out how the computational model can be applied within an ambient agent system supporting a human in not being tempted. In a simple example scenario it is shown such an ambient agent system is able to predict and assess a human’s desire state, and use this assessment to suggest alternatives to avoid falling for certain temptations.
