Modeling curiosity for virtual learning companions
International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems, 2014Curiosity is an emotional motivation that drives knowledge acquisition in learning context. Studies have shown that curiosity positively influences social learning and a peer learner's curiosity may elicit the curiosity of other learners. Hence, modeling curiosity in learning companions may improve human learners' learning experience in virtual ...

Companion Modelling: Variant of Geoprospective Approach
L’Espace géographique, 2012À la croisée entre modèles spatiaux, scénarios spatialisés et concertation sur l’avenir d’un territoire, la géoprospective donne une importance variable à chacun de ces trois volets. L’article analyse comment la modélisation d’accompagnement fait de la géoprospective et sous quelle forme particulière.

Bounded Obstructions, Model Companions and Amalgamation Bases
Mathematical Logic Quarterly, 1988We look at a classification of model companions of locally finite universal classes which is based on the behavior of obstructions to the amalgamation property. Then we show how such obstructions are related to the amalgamation class being an elementary class.

The Quarterly Journal of Mathematics, 1987
Let S be a monoid. An S-system A is absolutely pure if every finite consistent system of equations, with constants from A, has a solution in A. A monoid S is coherent if every finitely generated S-subsystem of every finitely presented cyclic S-system is finitely presented.

Modelling Empathy in Social Robotic Companions
2012Empathy can be broadly defined as the ability to understand and respond appropriately to the affective states of others. In this paper, we present a scenario where a social robot acts as a chess companion for children, and describe our current efforts towards endowing such robot with empathic capabilities.

Modeling and evaluating empathy in embodied companion agents
International Journal of Human-Computer Studies, 2007Affective reasoning plays an increasingly important role in cognitive accounts of social interaction. Humans continuously assess one another's situational context, modify their own affective state accordingly, and then respond to these outcomes by expressing empathetic behaviors. Synthetic agents serving as companions should respond similarly. However,

A Cognitive Model of Social Relations for Artificial Companions
2014Artificial companions are made to establish and maintain long-term relationships with users. In order to model the companion’s social relations and to capture its dynamics, we propose a neural network model based on a formal representation of social relations. Based on psychological theories, we characterize social relations over two dimensions, namely

Our companion modelling approach
J. Artif. Soc. Soc. Simul., 2003This paper is a charter presenting a scientific posture shared by signatories in the use of simulation tools when dealing with complex systems. This posture is based on a cycling approach, in interaction with field processes, including discussion of assumptions and feedbacks on the field process.

Gerontology for companions: a model curriculum.
Journal of case management, 1996Although paid companions spend many hours in direct contact with their older clients, the majority have little or no grounding in gerontological developmental theory. This article describes a project that provided academic training for paraprofessionals through a pilot curriculum.
