Aligning LLMs with human preferences with eye-tracking rewards

by Angela Lopez CardonaPublications, TID December 20, 2024May 3, 2025No Comments

To better understand the potential of cognitive data in improving machine learning models, specifically Large Language Models (LLMs), we propose GazeReward, an innovative framework for aligning LLMs with human preferences by incorporating eye-tracking (ET) data into reward modeling. LLMs like GPT-4 [1], Llama 3 [2], and others have revolutionized Natural Language Processing (NLP), excelling in …
