User modelling and adaptivity in visual information retrieval systems

نویسنده

چکیده

This paper proposes suitable characteristics of an ideal Visual Information Retrieval (VIR) system. The central role of user modelling in such a system is discussed. Approaches to the automated analysis of images in image retrieval systems are considered. A preliminary sketch of the model is then provided. The model is based on Bayesian user modelling techniques and dynamic Bayesian Networks. A brief worked example of the model is provided, showing how the model might acquire knowledge about the user and exploit automatically derived image features to help satisfy a user’s specific image retrieval requirements.

Adaptivity in Question Answering with User Modelling and a Dialogue Interface

Most question answering (QA) and information retrieval (IR) systems are insensitive to different users’ needs and preferences, and also to the existence of multiple, complex or controversial answers. We introduce adaptivity in QA and IR by creating a hybrid system based on a dialogue interface and a user model.

Context-Aware Recommender Systems: A Review of the Structure Research

 Recommender systems are a branch of retrieval systems and information matching, which through identifying the interests and requires of the user, help the users achieve the desired information or service through a massive selection of choices. In recent years, the recommender systems apply describing information in the terms of the user, such as location, time, and task, in order to produce re...

Adaptivity in Question Answering Using Dialogue Interfaces

In the field of Artificial Intelligence, question answering is a bridge between information retrieval and natural language understanding. We propose to introduce adaptivity in question answering by creating a system based on a dialogue interface and a user modelling component. Our system will be able to handle complex questions and to present answers in a style tailored not only on their conten...
