MindZero: Learning Online Mental Reasoning With Zero Annotations
Shunchi Zhang, Jin Lu, Chuanyang Jin +3
Effective real-world assistance requires AI agents with robust Theory of Mind (ToM): inferring human mental states from their behavior. Despite recent advances, several key challen…
Neural Synchrony Between Socially Interacting Language Models
Zhining Zhang, Wentao Zhu, Chi Han +2
Neuroscience has uncovered a fundamental mechanism of our social nature: human brain activity becomes synchronized with others in many social contexts involving interaction. Tradit…
AutoToM: Scaling Model-based Mental Inference via Automated Agent Modeling
Zhining Zhang, Chuanyang Jin, Mung Yao Jia +2
Theory of Mind (ToM), the ability to understand people's minds based on their behavior, is key to developing socially intelligent agents. Current approaches to ToM reasoning either…
Embodied Representation Alignment with Mirror Neurons
Wentao Zhu, Zhining Zhang, Yuwei Ren +3
Mirror neurons are a class of neurons that activate both when an individual observes an action and when they perform the same action. This mechanism reveals a fundamental interplay…
