We do so to explore the possible adaptive value of emotion-like states for action selection in this context. However, we also aim to study and consider these concepts together at different levels of abstraction. For example, in terms of individual agents’ brain-body-environment interactions, as well as the (emergent) predator-prey relationships resulting from these. Here, we discuss some of the background concepts and motivations driving the design of our implementation and experiments. First, we explain why we think the predator-prey relationship is so interesting. Narrowing our focus to emotion-based architectures, this is followed by a review of existing literature, comparing different types and highlighting the novel aspects of our own. We conclude with our proposed contributions to the literature and thus, ultimately, the design and creation of artificial life.</style></abstract><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;a href=&quot;https://mitpress-request.mit.edu/sites/default/files/titles/alife/0262290758chap141.pdf&quot;&gt;Download&lt;/a&gt; (Open Access)</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">O'Bryne, Claire</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lola Cañamero</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">John C Murray</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The Importance of the Body in Affect-Modulated Action Selection: A Case Study Comparing Proximal Versus Distal Perception in a Prey-Predator Scenario</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Proc. 3rd Intl.

We are particularly interested in the effects that affective modulation of different perceptual capabilities has on the dynamics of interactions between predator and prey, as part of a broader study of the adaptive value of emotional states such as &quot;fear&quot; and &quot;aggression&quot; in the context of action selection. In this paper we present experiments where we modulated the architecture of a prey robot using two different types of sensory capabilities, proximal and distal, effectively creating combinations of different prey &quot;brains&quot; and &quot;bodies&quot;.</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
