The edge of chaos is a metaphor used to describe the complexity
that lies between systems that are too static and systems that are
too chaotic. The science of complex systems is the best paradigm to
use for describing and modeling behavioral and emotional aspects
from both a mathematical and a psychological point of view. Today,
emotions are often better understood by means of
psychophysiological correlates. By measuring affective states in
human beings, it is possible to create simple rules and assign
these to specific behaviors. Coding such rules makes it easier to
study interactions by using simulated networks to evaluate the
diffusion and the dynamics of strategic and behavioral aspects.
Modeling emotions is surely interesting, but also practical. We
need to understand how emotions affect human behavior and precisely
how to endow artificial agents to follow such rules. With these
important issues in mind, "Modeling Emotions At the Edge of Chaos"
explores psychology, the complexity of emotions, and other aspects
related to human behavior and helps us represent them in a formal,
computational, and usable mode.
