Abstract:

Human-computer collaboration provides a practical and useful application for plan recognition techniques. We describe a plan recognition algorithm which is tractable by virtue of exploiting properties of the collaborative setting, namely: the focus of attention, the use of partially elaborated hierarchical plans, and the possibility of asking for clarification. We demonstrate how the addition of our plan recognition algorithm to an implemented collaborative system reduces the amount of communication required from the user.
