Elicitation as a Multilayered Process

A Design Preference Elicitation Query as an Optimization Process

We seek to elicit individual design preferences through human-computer interaction. During an iteration of the interactive session, the computer queries the subject by presenting a set of designs from which the subject must make a choice. The computer uses this choice feedback and creates the next set of designs using knowledge accumulated from previous choices. Under the hypothesis that human ...

Gaussian Process Preference Elicitation

Bayesian approaches to preference elicitation (PE) are particularly attractive due to their ability to explicitly model uncertainty in users’ latent utility functions. However, previous approaches to Bayesian PE have ignored the important problem of generalizing from previous users to an unseen user in order to reduce the elicitation burden on new users. In this paper, we address this deficienc...

Collaborative Requirements Elicitation: A Process-Centred Approach

Requirements Elicitation is one of the first and most critical processes in system engineering. In this paper we will focus on the collaborative aspects of requirement elicitation, in the context of system development. To do so, we adopted the separation of concerns method. Using this method we separate engineering aspects from collaboration aspects in order to study both aspects and finally in...

A Process Model for Requirements Elicitation

Despite improvements in various activities making up the software development process, the elicitation, analysis and modelling of user requirements remain as one of the least explored and have the least satisfactory scientific foundations. The approach to be explored takes lowlevel requirements, which can be expressed in crosstable format, and uses Formal Concept Analysis to automatically gener...
