Researchers from MIT and Harvard suggest that applying theories from cognitive science and educational psychology to the area of human-robot interaction can help humans build more accurate mental models of their robot collaborators, which could boost performance and improve safety in cooperative workspaces.
Scientists who study human-robot interaction often focus on understanding human intentions from a robot’s perspective, so the robot learns to cooperate
Feature-attribution methods are used to determine if a neural network is working correctly when completing a task like image classification. MIT researchers developed a way to evaluate whether these feature-attribution methods are correctly identifying the features of an image that are important to a neural network’s prediction.
