Intentional User Adaptation to Shared Control Assistance

Shared control approaches to robot assistance typically assume that user behavior remains the same despite the addition of the the assistance and rely upon this assumption to infer user goals. However, HRI research consistently shows that users are highly sensitive to changes in robot performance, which contradicts th…

Modeling Variation in Human Feedback with User Inputs: An Exploratory Methodology

To expedite the development process of interactive reinforcement learning (IntRL) algorithms, prior work often uses perfect oracles as simulated human teachers to furnish feedback signals. Those oracles typically derive from ground-truth knowledge or optimal policies, and provide dense and error-free feedback to a rob…

Online Behavior Modification for Expressive User Control of RL-Trained Robots

Reinforcement Learning (RL) is an effective method for robots to learn tasks. However, in typical RL, end-users have little to no control over how the robot does the task after the robot has been deployed. To address this, we introduce the idea of online behavior modification, a paradigm in which users have control ov…

Planning with Partner Uncertainty Modeling for Efficient Information Revealing in Teamwork

Communication among team members is important for efficient teamwork, to coordinate behavior and ensure that all team members have the information they need to complete the task. To enable effective communication and thus efficient teamwork, we propose a multi-agent planning approach to revealing information based on…
