Abstract
In order to improve the consistency of their affective multimodal behaviors, interactive virtual agents might benefit from a model of personality inspired from psychology. In this paper, we revisit the different approaches considered in personality psychology. We show that previous efforts to endow virtual agents with personality made only a limited use of these approaches. Finally, we introduce our PERMUTATION corpus-based framework.
