Overview

This is an implementation of a Social Reasoner component for Conversational Agents and Chatbots. This repository is organized into two folders:

  • SocialReasoner: it contains the source code of the Social Reasoner, which uses a Spreading Activation mechanism so-called Behavior Networks (Pattie Maes, 1989, How todo the right thing). Internally, the system is organized into three packages wich correspond to the MVC architectural patter: model, view and control:
    • model: this package contains classes that have access to data such as user history, messages, intents, etc. as well as a blackboard system that works as a Short-Term Memory and Broadcasting mechanism.
    • control: this package contains controller classes for different aspects: communication (zmq), common utils (utils), emulators to tests experimental datasets (emulators), the spreading activation mechanism based on the Behavior Network model (bn), and a high-level implementation of the Social Reasoner (reasoner).
    • view: it contains classes in charge of the visualization of the social reasoner's dynamics.
  • Docs: this folder contains documents and papers about the Social Reasoner.
