Artificial emotion model based on reinforcement learning mechanism of neural network

A hierarchical-processed frame construction of artificial emotion model for intelligent system is proposed in the paper according to the basic conclusion of emotional psychology. The general method of emotion processing, which considers only one single layer, has been changed in the presented construction. An artificial emotional development model is put forward based on reinforcement learning mechanism of neural network. The new model takes the emotion itself as reinforcement signal and describes its different influences on action learning efficiency corresponding to different individualities. In the end, simulation result based on child playmate robot is discussed and the effectiveness of the model is verified.
