• Abstract: Communication is a hallmark of intelligence. In this work, we present MIRROR, an approach to (i) quickly learn human models from human demonstrations, and (ii) use the models for subsequent communication planning in assistive shared-control settings. MIRROR is inspired by social projection theory, which hypothesizes that humans use self-models to understand others. Likewise, MIRROR leverages self-models learned using reinforcement learning to bootstrap human modeling. Experiments with simulated humans show that this approach leads to rapid learning and more robust models compared to existing behavioral cloning and state-of-the-art imitation learning methods. We also present a human-subject study using the CARLA simulator which shows that (i) MIRROR is able to scale to complex domains with high-dimensional observations and complicated world physics and (ii) provides effective assistive communication that enabled participants to drive more safely in adverse weather conditions.

  We propose PersLLM, integrating psychology-grounded principles of personality: social practice, consistency, and dynamic development. We incorporate personality traits directly into the model parameters, enhancing the model's resistance to induction, promoting consistency, and supporting the dynamic evolution of personality.

  Existing work highlights the ability of Large Language Models to address complex reasoning tasks and mimic human communication. We propose to investigate the use of LLMs to generate synthetic human demonstrations, which are then used to learn subrational agent policies. We experimentally evaluate the ability of our framework to model sub-rationality through four simple scenarios.

  Learning predictive models from interaction with the world allows an agent, such as a robot, to learn about how the world works. However, learning a model that captures the dynamics of complex skills represents a major challenge. We propose a method to augment the training set with observational data of other agents, such as humans.
