2022 Learning Models of Individual Behavior in Chess
abstract
AI systems that can capture human-like behavior are becoming increasingly useful in situations where humans may want to learn from these systems, collaborate with them, or engage with them as partners for an extended duration. In order to develop human-oriented AI systems, the problem of predicting human actions---as opposed to predicting optimal actions---has received considerable attention. Existing work has focused on capturing human behavior in an aggregate sense, which potentially limits the benefit any particular individual could gain from interaction with these systems. We extend this line of work by developing highly accurate predictive models of individual human behavior in chess. Chess is a rich domain for exploring human-AI interaction because it combines a unique set of properties: AI systems achieved superhuman performance many years ago, and yet humans still interact with them closely, both as opponents and as preparation tools, and there is an enormous corpus of recorded data on individual player games. Starting with Maia, an open-source version of AlphaZero trained on a population of human players, we demonstrate that we can significantly improve prediction accuracy of a particular player's moves by applying a series of fine-tuning methods. Furthermore, our personalized models can be used to perform stylometry---predicting who made a given set of moves---indicating that they capture human decision-making at an individual level. Our work demonstrates a way to bring AI systems into better alignment with the behavior of individual people, which could lead to large improvements in human-AI interaction.

2020 Spiffy: Enabling File-System Aware Storage Applications
abstract
Many file-system applications such as defragmentation tools, file-system checkers, or data recovery tools, operate at the storage layer. Today, developers of these file-system aware storage applications require detailed knowledge of the file-system format, which requires significant time to learn, often by trial and error, due to insufficient documentation or specification of the format. Furthermore, these applications perform ad-hoc processing of the file-system metadata, leading to bugs and vulnerabilities. We propose Spiffy, an annotation language for specifying the on-disk format of a file system. File-system developers annotate the data structures of a file system, and we use these annotations to generate a library that allows identifying, parsing, and traversing file-system metadata, providing support for both offline and online storage applications. This approach simplifies the development of storage applications that work across different file systems because it reduces the amount of file-system--specific code that needs to be written. We have written annotations for the Linux Ext4, Btrfs, and F2FS file systems, and developed several applications for these file systems, including a type-specific metadata corruptor, a file-system converter, an online storage layer cache that preferentially caches files for certain users, and a runtime file-system checker. Our experiments show that applications built with the Spiffy library for accessing file-system metadata can achieve good performance and are robust against file-system corruption errors.
