The ability to estimate the state of a human partner is an insufficient basis on which to build cooperative agents. Also needed is an ability to predict how people adapt their behavior in response to an agent's actions. We propose a new approach based on computational rationality, which models humans based on the idea that predictions can be derived by calculating policies that are approximately optimal given human-like bounds. Computational rationality brings together reinforcement learning and cognitive modeling in pursuit of this goal, facilitating machine understanding of humans.

Emotions toward cognitive enhancement technologies and the body : Attitudes and willingness to use
Rousi, Rebekah; Renko, Roni (Academic press, 2020)While technological development is becoming more integrated into our surrounding environments, it is also moving closer towards the human body. In fact, numerous examples can be seen in which information technology (IT) ... -
Supporting Task Switching with Reinforcement Learning
Lingler, Alexander; Talypova, Dinara; Jokinen, Jussi P. P.; Oulasvirta, Antti; Wintersberger, Philipp (ACM, 2024)Attention management systems aim to mitigate the negative effects of multitasking. However, sophisticated real-time attention management is yet to be developed. We present a novel concept for attention management with ... -
The Appraisal Theory of Emotion in Human–Computer Interaction
Jokinen, Jussi P. P.; Silvennoinen, Johanna (Springer International Publishing, 2020)This chapter reviews the appraisal theory of emotion and how it has been employed in human–computer interaction (HCI) research. This theory views emotion as a process that evaluates the subjective significance of an event. ... -

Interactionist Approach to Visual Aesthetics in HCI
Silvennoinen, Johanna (Springer International Publishing, 2021)Visual Aesthetics has gathered interest among scholars in HCI research. The growing interest stems from examinations of the aesthetic-usability effect (“what is beautiful is usable”), and possibly vice versa. Thus, numerous ...
