{"pk":31757,"title":"Eliciting Additional Information during Cooperative Consultations","subtitle":null,"abstract":"Analysis of naturally occurring information-\nseeking dialogues indicates that information\nproviders often query a user when there is insuffi-\ncient information to formulate a plan that satisfies\nthe user's intentions. In this paper, we present a\nmechanism that determines when queries are re-\nquired to elicit additional information from a user\nand the manner in which these queries should be\nposed. Query generation is done by taking into\naccount the amount of relevant information in the\nuser's intentions eis recognized by a plan recogni-\ntion mechanism. The mechanism for query gen-\neration described in this paper has been imple-\nmented as a component of a computerized infor-\nmation providing system in the travel domain.","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[],"section":"Submitted Presentations","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6bw834zr","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Monash","middle_name":"","last_name":"University","name_suffix":"","institution":"Monash University","department":""},{"first_name":"Bhavani","middle_name":"","last_name":"Raskutti","name_suffix":"","institution":"Monash University","department":""},{"first_name":"Ingrid","middle_name":"","last_name":"Zukerman","name_suffix":"","institution":"Monash University","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"1993-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/31757/galley/22825/download/"}]}
