Resumen:
To provide personalized assistance to users, interface agents have to learn not only a user´s preferences and interests with respect to a software application, but also when and how the user prefers to be assisted. Interface agents have to detect the user´s intention to determine when to assist the user, and the user´s interaction and interruption preferences to provide the right type of assistance without hindering the user´s work. In this work we describe a user profiling approach that considers these issues within a user profile and a decision making approach that enables the agent to choose the best type of assistance for a given user in a given situation. We also describe the results obtained when evaluating our proposal in the tourism domain, and we compare these results with some previous ones in the calendar management domain.
