Overcoming information overload with artificial selective agents

چکیده
We describe an approach, based on artificial forms of selective attention, for overcoming the problem of information and interruption overload of intelligent agents. Inspired on natural selective attention studies, we propose a computational model of selective attention that relies on the assumption that uncertain, surprising and motive congruent/incongruent information demands attention from an intelligent agent.

In order to perform well, these agents should consider not only their preferences, but also their mental states (such as beliefs...
متن کاملUsing Iron-Chelating Agents in Critically Ill Patients with Iron Overload. Fact or Fiction?
Recently, some evidence has shown that the failure of iron homeostasis may occur in critically ill patients and can lead to iron overload. Elevated ferritin levels as a body iron burden index in critically ill patients may be associated with depressed level of consciousness and greater mortality. However, the necessity of using iron-chelating agents in clinical situation is still unknown for th...

متن کاملAn Experimental Study in Overcoming Hypothesis-confirming Search Strategies in Computerized Information Retrieval Systems
A recent trend in information retrieval systems technology is the development of on-line information retrieval systems. One objective of these systems has been to attempt to enhance decision effectiveness by allowing users to preferentially seek information, thereby facilitating the reduction or elimination of information overload. Since information systems users may preferentially seek informa...
