Cognitive architectures for affect and motivation
<22> Work is positional statement on use of motivational models to control cognitive architectures. Paper reports on cognitive architecture developed in ten years of individual research, and developments by PhD students which fed back into the work. Work addresses important issue of symbol use in a Belief-Desire-Intention (BDI) model controlled using an affect model. Rigorous and systematic test bed parameterisation used for evaluation. Initially contributing to the research theme on Cognitive Science and Cognitive Robotics, this work on control architectures is now impacting on our Telecare research, enabling robotic projects that look to improved environments for the infirm and disabled.
