Abstract

Formal modelling of emotions in agents is a challenging task. This is mainly due to the absence of a widely accepted theory of emotions as well as the two-way interaction of emotions with mood, perception, personality, communication, etc. In this work, we use the widely accepted dimensional theory of emotions according to which mood is a significant integrated factor for emotional state change and therefore behaviour. The theory is formally modelled as part of a state-based specification which naturally leads towards simulation of multi-agent systems. We demonstrate how moods of individual agents affect the overall behaviour of the crowd in a well-known example, that of the El Farol problem.
