An action selection architecture for autonomous virtual humans in persistent worlds

Nowadays, virtual humans such as non-player characters in computer games need to have a strong autonomy in order to live their own life in persistent virtual worlds. When designing autonomous virtual humans, the action selection problem needs to be conside ...

An Affective Model of Action Selection for Virtual Humans

Daniel Thalmann, Etienne De Sevin

The goal of our work aims at implementing progressively an action selection affective model for virtual humans that should be in the end autonomous, adaptive and sociable. Affect, traditionallydistinguished from "cold" cognition, regroups emotions and moti ...

A motivational model of action selection for virtual humans

Daniel Thalmann, Etienne De Sevin

Nowadays virtual humans such as non-player characters in computer games need to have a real autonomy in order to live their own life in persistent virtual worlds. When designing autonomous virtual humans, the action selection problem needs to be considered ...

The complexity of testing a motivational model of action selection for virtual humans

Daniel Thalmann, Etienne De Sevin

After implementing a motivational model of action selection applied to autonomous virtual humans inspired by models of animals' decision-making, the problem consists of testing it in good conditions for validation. Indeed this model has to respect the six ...

Towards real time virtual human life simulations

Daniel Thalmann, Etienne De Sevin

We describe an approach to construct interactive virtual environments, which are suitable for the development of artificial virtual human life simulations. Our main goal is to have virtual human actors living and working autonomously in virtual environment ...
