Understanding How International Students in the U.S. Are Using Conversational AI to Support Cross-Cultural Adaptation
Laleh Nourian, Anisa Callis, Stephanie Patterson +3
Moving to a new culture and adapting to a new life, as an international student, can be a stressful experience. In the US, international students face unique overlapping challenges…
Intrinsic Vicarious Conditioning for Deep Reinforcement Learning
Rodney A Sanchez, Ferat Sahin, Alex Ororbia +1
Advancements in reinforcement learning have produced a variety of complex and useful intrinsic driving forces; crucially, these drivers operate under a direct conditioning paradigm…
Formulating Reinforcement Learning for Human-Robot Collaboration through Off-Policy Evaluation
Saurav Singh, Rodney Sanchez, Alexander Ororbia +1
Reinforcement learning (RL) has the potential to transform real-world decision-making systems by enabling autonomous agents to learn from experience. Deploying RL in real-world set…
Avoiding Death through Fear Intrinsic Conditioning
Rodney Sanchez, Ferat Sahin, Alexander Ororbia +1
Biological and psychological concepts have inspired reinforcement learning algorithms to create new complex behaviors that expand agents' capacity. These behaviors can be seen in t…
Shuffle PatchMix Augmentation with Confidence-Margin Weighted Pseudo-Labels for Enhanced Source-Free Domain Adaptation
Prasanna Reddy Pulakurthi, Majid Rabbani, Jamison Heard +3
This work investigates Source-Free Domain Adaptation (SFDA), where a model adapts to a target domain without access to source data. A new augmentation technique, Shuffle PatchMix (…
