Abstract

By this study, it is aimed to build a general agent framework to simulate human-like intelligence. For this purpose, theories of needs and intentional notion are combined together. To explain motives, Alderfer's needs theory which is based on the ideas of Maslow is adopted. In this manner, it is tried to define the needs of human-beings as the cause of emergence of intelligence. Intelligent entities are considered as entities driven by unsatisfied needs, to satisfy these motives they act intentionally. Based on these ideas, we present an architecture to mimic all aspects of human intelligence.
