A Proposal for Extending the Common Model of Cognition to Emotion
This addresses the problem of incomplete humanlike mind models for researchers in cognitive science and AI, but it is incremental as it builds on an existing framework.
The paper tackles the integration of emotion into cognitive models by proposing an extension to the Common Model of Cognition, adding modules for emotion and metacognitive assessment with pervasive connections to existing components.
Cognition and emotion must be partnered in any complete model of a humanlike mind. This article proposes an extension to the Common Model of Cognition -- a developing consensus concerning what is required in such a mind -- for emotion that includes a linked pair of modules for emotion and metacognitive assessment, plus pervasive connections between these two new modules and the Common Model's existing modules and links.
