Abstract :
This paper deals with spontaneous behavior for cooperation among distributed autonomous robots. Though human gives the robots evaluation functions of the relation of cooperation among them, each robot determines its behavior depending on its experience and the behaviors of other robots. The robot acquires a model of behaviors of the other robots through teaming. Inspired from biological systems, the robot has emotions which play important roles of behavior selection. Each robot feels frustration when its determination does not suit to its environment. Then, it changes its behavior to change its situation actively. The results show a potential of emotional intelligence in robotics
