{"pk":29919,"title":"Bootstrapping an Imagined We for Cooperation","subtitle":null,"abstract":"Remaining committed to a joint goal in the face of many entic-\ning alternatives is challenging. Doing so while cooperating\nwith others under uncertainty is even more so. Despite this,\nagents can successfully and robustly use bootstrapping to con-\nverge on a joint intention from randomness under the Imagined\nWe framework. We demonstrate the power of this model in a\nreal-time cooperative hunting task. Additionally, we run a suite\nof model experiments to answer some of the potential chal-\nlenges to converging that this model could face under imperfect\nconditions. Specifically, we ask what happens when (1) there\nare increasingly many equivalent choices? (2) I only have an\napproximate model of you? and (3) my perception is noisy? We\nshow through a set of model experiments that this framework\nis robust to all three of these manipulations.","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[{"word":"Theory of Mind; Bayesian inference; cooperation;\nshared agency"}],"section":"Poster Session 2","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/8hj9w9hh","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Ning","middle_name":"","last_name":"Tang","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of California, Los Angeles","department":""},{"first_name":"Stephanie","middle_name":"","last_name":"Stacy","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of California, Los Angeles","department":""},{"first_name":"MingLu","middle_name":"","last_name":"Zhao","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of California, Los Angeles","department":""},{"first_name":"Gabriel","middle_name":"","last_name":"Marquez","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of California, Los Angeles","department":""},{"first_name":"Tao","middle_name":"","last_name":"Gao","name_suffix":"","institution":"University of California, Los Angeles","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"2020-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/29919/galley/19773/download/"}]}
