- Abstract summary: Our framework consists of three components -- a natural language engine that parses the language utterances to a formal representation and vice-versa.
We illustrate the ability of this framework to address the key challenges of collaborative problem solving by demonstrating it on a collaborative building task in a Minecraft-based blocksworld domain.

- Abstract: We consider the problem of human-machine collaborative problem solving as a
planning task coupled with natural language communication. Our framework
consists of three components -- a natural language engine that parses the
language utterances to a formal representation and vice-versa, a concept
learner that induces generalized concepts for plans based on limited
interactions with the user, and an HTN planner that solves the task based on
human interaction. We illustrate the ability of this framework to address the
key challenges of collaborative problem solving by demonstrating it on a
collaborative building task in a Minecraft-based blocksworld domain. The
accompanied demo video is available at https://youtu.be/q1pWe4aahF0.

We design a blocks-world environment where two agents, each having unique goals and skills, build a target structure together.
To complete the goals, they can act in the world and communicate in natural language.
We adopt chain-of-thought prompts that include intermediate reasoning steps to model the partner's state and identify and correct execution errors.

We propose a novel cooperative communication framework, Goal-Oriented Mental Alignment (GOMA)
GOMA formulates verbal communication as a planning problem that minimizes the misalignment between parts of agents' mental states that are relevant to the goals.
We evaluate our approach against strong baselines in two challenging environments, Overcooked (a multiplayer game) and VirtualHome (a household simulator)

We present a collaborative game design framework that combines interactive evolution and large language models.
In our framework, the process starts with a brief and a set of candidate designs, either generated using a language model or proposed by the users.
Next, users collaborate on the design process by providing feedback to an interactive genetic algorithm that selects, recombines, and mutates the most promising designs.

Understanding [51.31622274823167]
We propose a hierarchical framework with a coarse-to-fine paradigm, with the bottom level shared to all the tasks, the mid-level divided to different groups, and the top-level assigned to each of the tasks.
This allows our model to learn basic language properties from all tasks, boost performance on relevant tasks, and reduce the negative impact from irrelevant tasks.

Language understanding research is held back by a failure to relate language to the physical world it describes and to the social interactions it facilitates.
Despite the incredible effectiveness of language processing models to tackle tasks after being trained on text alone, successful linguistic communication relies on a shared experience of the world.
