Toward Robotic Socially Believable Behaving Systems - Volume I Gebunden

This volume is a collection of researchstudies on the modeling of emotions in complex autonomous systems. Severalexperts in the field are reporting their efforts and reviewing the literaturein order to shed lights on how the processes of coding and decoding emotionalstates took place in humans which are the physiological physical andpsychological variables involved invent new mathematical models and algorithmsto describe them and motivate these investigations in the light of observablesocietal changes and needs such as the aging population and the cost of healthcare services. The consequ ences are the implementation of emotionally andsocially believable machines acting as helpers into domestic spheres whereemotions drive behaviors and actions.The contents of the book are highlymultidisciplinary since the modeling of emotions in robotic socially believablesystems requires a holistic perspective on topics coming from differentresearch domains such as computer science engineering sociology psychology linguistic and information communication. The book is of interest both to experts and students since last researchworks on a so complex multidisciplinary topic are described in a neat anddidactical scientific language.
