Abstract: ABSTRACT: Emotional intelligence and its associated with models have recently become one of new active studies in the field of artificial intelligence. Several works have been performed on modelling of emotional behaviours such as love, hate, happiness and sadness. This study presents a comparative evaluation of rational and emotional behaviours and the effects of emotions on the decision making process of agents in a realistic multi-objective environment. NetLogo simulation environment is used to model a realistic multi-objective environment, where an agent is in continuous interaction with a set of objects in its surrounding. The agent living and acting in its environment employs reasoning procedures which combine a series of inferences, evaluation, evolution processes, adaptation, learning and rule based emotions. Experimental evaluations showed that agents with the rational and emotional models in their decision to making processes achieve better performance compared to those with the rational decision model only. Keywords: Artificial Intelligence, Agent-Based Modelling, Rational Agent, Emotional Intelligence, NetLogo. …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ÖZ: Duygusal zeka ve onunla ilişkili modeller son zamanlarda yapay zeka alanında yeni aktif araştırma konularından biri haline gelmiştir. Sevgi, nefret, mutluluk ve öfke gibi duygusal davranışların modellenmesi üzerine çeşitli çalışmalar yapılmıştır. Bu çalışmada rasyonel ve duygusal davranışların karşılaştırmalı değerlendirilmeleri ve çok amaçlı gerçekçi bir ortamda ajanların karar alma süreci üzerinde duyguların etkisi sunulmuştur. NetLogo benzetim ortamı kullanılarak bir ajanın çevresindeki nesnelerle sürekli etkileşimi çok amaçlı bir ortam için modellenmiştir. Ajan yaşadığı çevrede etkili öğrenme, çıkarımlar yapma, değerlendirmelerde bulunmayı geliştirme ve uyum gibi bir dizi duygusal kural ve akıl süreci kullanır. Deneysel değerlendirmeler rasyonel ve duygusal karar alma sürelerinin birlikte kullanımının daha etkili olduğunu göstermiştir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Yapay Zeka, Ajan Tabanlı Modelleme, Rasyonel Ajan, Duygusal Zeka, NetLogo.
