Research Experience
- The CIIGAR Lab is housed in the Computer Science Department at North Carolina State University (NC State) and is affiliated with NC State's Digital Games Research Center.
- The lab conducts interdisciplinary research, primarily focusing on Reinforcement Learning (RL) and Canine Research.
- In RL research, the lab aims to improve learning algorithms' ability to rapidly learn from human trainers by integrating quantitative behavior analysis and developing novel RL algorithms based on behavioral principles.
- In canine research, the lab investigates how human trainers effectively communicate with and teach dogs, applying these insights to machine learning algorithm design and developing hardware/software to mediate human-dog communication.
- The lab previously conducted significant research in games (Computational Intelligence and Interactive Games Research), but this focus has greatly diminished in recent years.
