This research uses human eye-tracking signals to inform the development of hierarchical reinforcement learning (HRL) agents for human-agent collaboration.

To be eligible to participate, you must be between the ages of 18 to 65 years and have normal vision (20/40 or better) without correction from eyeglasses or contact lenses. Contact lenses and eyeglasses should not be worn during the study.
