Learner engagement regulation of dual-user training based on deep reinforcement learning

Abstract

AbstractThe dual-user training system is essential for fostering motor skill learning, particularly in complex operations. However, the challenge lies in the optimal tradeoff between trainee ability and engagement level. To address this problem, we propose an intelligent agent that coordinates trainees’ control authority during real task engagement to ensure task safety during training. Our approach avoids the need for manually set control authority by expert supervision. At the same time, it does not rely on pre-modeling the trainee’s skill development. The intelligent agent uses a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) algorithm based on trainee performance to adjust adaptive engagement during the training process. Our investigation aims to provide reasonable engagement for trainees to improve their skills while ensuring task safety. Our results demonstrate that this system can seek the policy to maximize trainee participation while guaranteeing task safety.
