Multi-agent Approach for Ubiquitous Group Decision Support Involving Emotions

Abstract

Abstract. The present business environment is characterized by the use of groups, which work in distributed environments and have to deal with uncertainty and rapidly changing information. In this work we propose an architecture for a ubiquitous group decision support system able to support persons in group decision processes. The system considers the emotional factors of the intervenient participants, as well as the argumentation between them. Particular attention will be taken to one of components of this system: the multi-agent simulator, modelling the human participants, considering emotional characteristics, and that allowing the exchanges of hypothetic arguments among the participants.

Agent-Based Modelling and Simulation of Airport Terminal Operations Under COVID-19-Related Restrictions

“…To incorporate for emotions, a number of decision-making models have been developed [63], [60], [68]. The paper 'Adaptive modelling of social decision-making by agents integrating simulated behavior and perceptions chains' by Sharpanskyk'h [63] incorporates theory of the OCC model developed by Ortony, Clore and Collins [51], 'simulation' theory of Hesslow [31] and Damasio's theory on somatic markers [33].…”

Modelo conceptual para el despliegue de publicidad ubicua soportado en un esquema de cooperación Smart TV- SmartPhone.

“…se requiere que las recomendaciones estén dirigidas a un grupo de personas que se encuentran observando la pantalla. Al respecto, Masthoff [42] realiza una revisión de algunas técnicas para la caracterización de un perfil grupal; igualmente, algunos sistemas han sido diseñados para entornos grupales: [43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52]. Específicamente, en el campo de publicidad, Carolis [40] plantea una aproximación para la caracterización y el modelamiento de los grupos, con el fin de entregar recomendaciones al conjunto de individuos.…”

Arguing with Behavior Influence: A Model for Web-Based Group Decision Support Systems

“…[18][19][20] The idea behind the Web-based GDSS is to support the group decision-making process \anytime" and \anywhere", and help deal with some of the referred problems. 21,22 In a group decision-making process, there is a con°ict of interests and each party involved may (or may not) have di®erent objectives and needs that intends to satisfy and pursuit. 23 Some strategies that can be used in Web-based GDSS have been proposed over the years such as Multiple-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) [24][25][26][27] methods and automatic negotiation models (game theory, heuristics and argumentation).…”
