Abstract(in English) In Human Computer Interaction, the uncanny valley is crucial to design the appropriate appearance of an agent for human beings. Previous studies have implied that human perceives a humanlike agent in two processes. We conducted the experiment to clarify how human observes a humanlike agent and the results showed that participants perceive it as human at first and then as non-human. These two information-processes can be explained by the dual-pathway of emotion. In current study, we propose a model for the occurrence of uncanny valley based on the function of hippocampus, which can provide the explanation for human evocation of the feeling of the eeriness toward a humanlike agent.
