• Authors: Md Sultan Al Nahian, Spencer Frazier, Brent Harrison, Mark Riedl
• Abstract summary: We explore the use of machine learning models for the task of normative principle prediction on naturally occurring story data. We show that while individual principles can be classified, the ambiguity of what "moral principles" represent poses a challenge for both human participants and autonomous systems.

• Abstract: Value alignment is the task of creating autonomous systems whose values align with those of humans. Past work has shown that stories are a potentially rich source of information on human values; however, past work has been limited to considering values in a binary sense. In this work, we explore the use of machine learning models for the task of normative principle prediction on naturally occurring story data. To do this, we extend a dataset that has been previously used to train a binary normative classifier with annotations of moral principles. We then use this dataset to train a variety of machine learning models, evaluate these models and compare their results against humans who were asked to perform the same task. We show that while individual principles can be classified, the ambiguity of what "moral principles" represent, poses a challenge for both human participants and autonomous systems which are faced with the same task.

  We propose a novel approach that incorporates process information from context to enhance the HAR performance. Specifically, we align probabilistic events generated by machine learning models with process models derived from contextual information. This alignment adaptively weighs these two sources of information to optimise HAR accuracy.

  Embedders play a central role in machine learning, projecting any object into numerical representations that can be leveraged to perform various downstream tasks. The evaluation of embedding models typically depends on domain-specific empirical approaches. We present a unified approach to evaluate embedders, drawing upon the concepts of sufficiency and informativeness.

• Quantifying Human Bias and Knowledge to guide ML models during Training [0.0]
  We introduce an experimental approach to dealing with skewed datasets by including humans in the training process. We ask humans to rank the importance of features of the dataset, and through rank aggregation, determine the initial weight bias for the model. We show that collective human bias can allow ML models to learn insights about the true population instead of the biased sample.

Our dataset focuses on the assessment of functional commonsense knowledge rules rather than factual knowledge. Experiments show that the introduced dataset is challenging to previous machine reading models as well as the new large language models.

Our work shows that progress can be made on machine ethics today, and it provides a steppingstone toward AI that is aligned with human values.

  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.
