An Accessible Toolkit for the Creation of Socio-EmotionalAgents


Abstract FAtiMA Toolkit is a collection of open-source tools that is designed to facilitate the creation and use of cognitive agents with socioemotional skills. The toolkit was developed with a focus on accessibility so it could be used by both researchers and game developers. It provides a computational model of emotions that is based on the OCC appraisal theory as well as an explicit dialogue structure that is familiar to game developers while maintaining the flexibility of an approach based on autonomous agents. Among various use cases, the toolkit has been successfully applied by an external game studio in their development of two serious games.
