Abstract

This paper consists of an extension to the model of emotions and personalities based on multiagent systems, in which, in order for the agents to survive, they need to carry out merchandise exchanges. The initialization of this model has a fixed values, assigned for the personality and the influence of the personality on the emotion. This value should vary in the interval [0;1], where the value zero represents almost nonexistence of the given personality or influence on the emotions, and one, the total presence. Therefore, when a value is set at the initialization of the model, it will not be able to show precisely the way these emotions and personalities influence the decisions of the human being, since each individual does not possess the ability to quantitatively weigh their emotions and personality.To become the model a solution closer to human reality, we have studied techniques to solve the problem of fixed initialization in the influence of the personality on the emotion appeared. For this, this paper presents the initialization using three different techniques: Normal Distribution, Fuzzy Logic and Interval Mathematics. The purpose of using these techniques is to be able to have a broader and better view of different model output results. In addition, it allows a comparison with the results of the original model, in order to try get a better representation of the human model.
