The purpose of the present study is to learn emotion expression representations for artificial agents using reward shaping mechanisms. The approach takes inspiration from the TAMER framework for training a Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) to learn to express different emotions on the iCub robot in a human-robot interaction scenario. The robot uses a combination of a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and a Self-Organising Map (SOM) to recognise an emotion and then learns to express the same using the MLP. The objective is to teach a robot to respond adequately to the user's perception of emotions and learn how to express different emotions.
