Abstract
This Chapter is a survey dealing with the use of emotions and mood to characterize an Ambient Intelligence system. In particular, a key aspect of the described research is the assumption that each level of an Ambient Intelligence infrastructure (e.g., sensing, reasoning, action) can benefit from the introduction of emotion and mood modelling. The Chapter surveys well-known models (e.g., OCC, Big Five – Five Factor Model, PAD, just to name a few) discussing for each one Pros and Cons. Next, architectures for emotional agents are discussed, e.g., Cathexis (assuming the somatic marker hypothesis proposed by Damasio), Flame, Tabasco and many others. Finally, specific implementation examples of emotional agents in Ambient Intelligence scenarios are described.
