Abstract

In most attempts to define a system with emotions, researchers have tried to incorporate human emotions in them. In this paper, human emotional behavior is studied in a larger perspective of problem solving. The similarity among reflex action, emotional behavior and common sense behavior is observed. Based on these observations an event-response model for artificial system is introduced.
