The goal of this paper is to model an agent who dislikes large choice sets because of the “cost of thinking” involved in choosing from them. We take as a primitive a preferenc...
Researchers in the field of intelligent interfaces have concentrated on building architectures, and have placed little emphasis on defining appropriate models. As a result, this...

We examine the need for plan inference in intelligent help mechanisms. We argue that previous approaches have drawbacks that need to be overcome to make plan inference useful. Fir...
We discuss current approaches to the development of natural language dialogue systems, and claim that they do not sufficiently consider the unique qualities of man-machine intera...
