Introduction
"The MicroPsi agent architecture describes the interaction of emotion, motivation and cognition of situated agents, mainly based on the Psi theory of Dietrich Dörner. " The architecture also makes use of BDI (Belief, Desire, Intention) ideas.
Research Group
The research is done by the
MicroPsi Project of the
Universität Osnabrück and the
Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, which is lead by
Joscha Bach.
Systems built from this architecture
MicroPsi is the only system. The project group has opened up the source code, so anyone can make additional modules.
Supported Cognitive Faculties
- Goal-directed behavior and planning
- Emotion
- Long Term Memory
- Workspace
- Perception
- Action
- Motivation
The architecture: main data-flow, main control-flow
No known software architecture comes to mind when viewing MicroPsi's architecture. It is a form of Distributed Computing. The control flow seems to be combination of
Emulated Parallel and
Event Based.
