The study, submitted to arXiv on 26 Jun 2026, also analyzed rule difficulty and pseudo-bot-assisted human learning, demonstrating that representation design significantly impacts generalization and conceptual transfer.", "body_md": "# Computer Science > Artificial Intelligence\n\n[Submitted on 26 Jun 2026]\n\n# Title:AI Learning and Conceptual Transfer in the Game of Hidden Rules\n\n[View PDF](/pdf/2608.21372)\n\n[HTML (experimental)](https://arxiv.org/html/2608.21372v1)\n\nAbstract:This report summarizes the work conducted on the Game of Hidden Rules (GOHR), focusing on reinforcement learning agents trained to infer hidden rules from trial-and-error feedback, representation design, rule difficulty analysis, transfer learning, generalization, and pseudo-bot-assisted human learning analysis. The report focuses on the Transformer-based A2C framework, Feature-Centric and Object-Centric representations, experimental findings, and classification of human learning data.\n\n### References & Citations\n\nLoading...\n\n# Bibliographic and Citation Tools\n\nBibliographic Explorer\n\n*(*[What is the Explorer?](https://info.arxiv.org/labs/showcase.html#arxiv-bibliographic-explorer))\nConnected Papers\n\n*(*[What is Connected Papers?](https://www.connectedpapers.com/about))\nLitmaps\n\n*(*[What is Litmaps?](https://www.litmaps.co/))\nscite Smart Citations\n\n*(*[What are Smart Citations?](https://www.scite.ai/))# Code, Data and Media Associated with this Article\n\nalphaXiv\n\n*(*[What is alphaXiv?](https://alphaxiv.org/))\nCatalyzeX Code Finder for Papers\n\n*(*[What is CatalyzeX?](https://www.catalyzex.com))\nDagsHub\n\n*(*[What is DagsHub?](https://dagshub.com/))\nGotit.pub\n\n*(*[What is GotitPub?](http://gotit.pub/faq))\nHugging Face\n\n*(*[What is Huggingface?](https://huggingface.co/huggingface))\nScienceCast\n\n*(*[What is ScienceCast?](https://sciencecast.org/welcome))# Demos\n\n# Recommenders and Search Tools\n\nInfluence Flower\n\n*(*[What are Influence Flowers?](https://influencemap.cmlab.dev/))\nCORE Recommender\n\n*(*[What is CORE?](https://core.ac.uk/services/recommender))# arXivLabs: experimental projects with community collaborators\n\narXivLabs is a framework that allows collaborators to develop and share new arXiv features directly on our website.\n\nBoth individuals and organizations that work with arXivLabs have embraced and accepted our values of openness, community, excellence, and user data privacy. arXiv is committed to these values and only works with partners that adhere to them.\n\nHave an idea for a project that will add value for arXiv's community?
