Towards a Framework of Personalization TechniquesRazmerita, Liana; Nabeth, Thierry; Kirchner, Kathrin (Frederiksberg, 2012)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper aims to elaborate on the role of user modelling for personalization and enhanced attention support. User modelling is an important element in the management of personal profiles and identity of users, but also a key element for providing adaptive features and personalized interaction. In this paper, we present personalization as the process consisting on the customization, and the adaptation of the interaction along the structure, the content, the modality, the presentation and the level of attention required. The paper surveys personalization techniques and provides concrete examples of personalized interaction. In particular, the paper focuses on the role of user modeling for enhanced, personalized user support within interactive applications. The key contribution of the paper is to propose a framework of personalization techniques and to identify new forms of personalization that aim at taking into account human cognitive capabilities and emotions.

Abstract: Valency deals with the question of how many participants a certain verb logically presupposes in order for the event denoted by the verb to be realizable. For instance, it takes only one individual to carry out a sleeping event. Each and every one of us can do that without any assistance from others. Therefore, we say that a verb (or verbs) denoting a sleeping event presupposes one argument, namely the individual doing the sleeping. A full sentence describing a sleeping event, then, typically consists of an appropriate form of the verb plus a phrase, typically an NP denoting the individual who sleeps, as in (1): (1) John sleeps Accordingly, the verb sleeps is described as belonging to the class of Mono-valent verbs, which comprises all intransitive verbs, die, wither, walk, run, liquidate, etc.. In this sentence the argument is realized as an NP with the sentential grammatical function of subject, and the subject has the semantic role of AGENT. Note that sleeping is an intentional act since (more often than not) you can decide whether you want to sleep or not1. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8673 Files in this item: 1
