On a decision making system with emotion

This paper proposes a decision making system and its process of the evolution. By evolving, this system comes to decide its action as if it has an emotion. According to the URGE theory asserted by Masanao Toda (1993), emotion is the most optimized and fundamental decision making system. If it is possible to generate such a system artificially, it may be applied in various engineering fields. Conventional decision making systems never have such an emotional nature. Thus, we started the research of the decision making system with emotion, which may have many possibilities. As the first step, we are trying to make an emotional feature that is included in the decision making system of ovulating. This paper reports an example of an evolutional system that determines actions of virtual creatures in a virtual environment.
