Abstract-Emotions have a considerable effect on human behaviors and cognitive processes, especially during crisis situations. Emotion modeling is therefore a key solution to generate realistic social simulations in crisis situations. In this context, we intend to model human emotional dynamics and to study their effect on individual and collective behaviors during emergency situations. In this paper, we focus on the first part of this research work which consists in the modeling of emotion generation in emergency situations. Thus, we provide first a modeling of the disaster space in a rescue simulation context. Then, we propose a computational model of the generated human emotions, basing on the emergency environment. This model uses the appraisal theories of emotions.

“…Their model is integrated into an existing affective agent architecture [9] and comprises an empathic appraisal component and an empathic response component. A perceived event by an agent that evokes an emotional cue in another agent is input to the empathic appraisal component together with the emotional cue.…”

“…Mood is defined as the empathizing agent's mood which then affects the intensity of the empathic emotion as it affects that of other emotions (cf. [9]). Personality refers to the empathizing agent's resistance to feel particular emotions.…”

Abstract. Endowing artificial agents with the ability to empathize is believed to enhance their social behavior and to make them more likable, trustworthy, and caring. Neuropsychological findings substantiate that empathy occurs to different degrees depending on several factors including, among others, a person's mood, personality, and social relationships with others. Although there is increasing interest in endowing artificial agents with affect, personality, and the ability to build social relationships, little attention has been devoted to the role of such factors in influencing their empathic behavior. In this paper, we present a computational model of empathy which allows a virtual human to exhibit different degrees of empathy. The presented model is based on psychological models of empathy and is applied and evaluated in the context of a conversational agent scenario.

“…[10]. In FearNot!, characters run the FAtiMA [11] architecture, including a generative planner. Plot-centred approaches may also involve generative planning [12] but risk conflict between pre-determined outcomes and character freedom-to-act, problematic in role-play where human actors require interactional freedom with each other and the virtual actors.…”

“…These characters have autobiographical memory, individual personalities, a model of the Spryte culture, and improvisational capabilities to enable social and emotional learning through RP and affective engagement in a complex social environment. The affective mind is being built upon FAtiMA [11] combined with the PSI [16] model. Affective models are seen here as a key component of virtual actors given the need to affectively engage participants and spectators in the dramatic environment.…”

Abstract. This paper investigates how graphically displayed intelligent virtual actors, mobile devices and innovative interaction modalities can support and enhance educational role-play as well as deepen the sense of engagement and presence in participants to produce more successful learning. The discussion will be presented using a showcase from the eCIRCUS project, ORIENT, an application combining virtual and real life role-play for social and emotional learning.
