van der Werff, Kevin (author)With the prevalence of artificial intelligence recently, more attention is being drawn towards the collaboration between humans and agents. Across the many fields where such an agent can be employed, we are going to specifically examine the domain of negotiation. A critical part to ensure success in this human-agent collaboration is to establish...bachelor thesis 2023

Timmerman, Kirsten (author)When making decisions, people are automatically guided by their moral compass. However, AI agents need to be conditioned in order to be steered towards moral behaviour. An environment that can be used to train and test agents is the Jiminy Cricket environment. The Jiminy Cricket environment consists of a set of text-based narrative games, where...bachelor thesis 2023

Niemantsverdriet, Duuk (author)Arguably the main goal of artificial intelligence is to create agents that can collaborate with humans to achieve a shared goal. It has been shown that agents that assume their partner to be optimal can converge to protocols that humans do not understand. Taking human suboptimality into consideration is imperative to perform well in a...bachelor thesis 2023
