A generic self-learning emotional framework for machines

Abstract

This work introduces a self-learning emotional framework for artificial agents. The framework encodes recently observed values to generate an internal emotional state that guides the selection of reinforcement-learning actions, enabling agents to adapt their behaviour without manually designed reward functions for every situation.
