Abstract

In stressful situations such as combat, emotion is at least as important as rational analysis in determining behavior. DETT (Disposition, Emotion, Trigger, Tendency) is a model of emotion for situated agents that captures the essential features of the OCC (Ortony, Clore, Collins) model in a computationally efficient framework. We motivate and describe this architecture, and report preliminary experiments in simulating combat scenarios.
