Intelligent Email: Aiding Users with AI
نویسندگان
چکیده
Email occupies a central role in the modern workplace. This has led to a vast increase in the number of email messages that users are expected to handle daily. Furthermore, email is no longer simply a tool for asynchronous online communication—email is now used for task management, personal archiving, as well both synchronous and asynchronous online communication (Whittaker and Sidner 1996). This explosion can lead to “email overload”—many users are overwhelmed by the large quantity of information in their mailboxes. In the human–computer interaction community, there has been much research on tackling email overload. Recently, similar efforts have emerged in the artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning communities to form an area of research known as intelligent email.

Extracting Knowledge about Users' Activities from Raw Workstation Contents
A long-standing goal of AI is the development of intelligent workstation-based personal agents to assist users in their daily lives. A key impediment to this goal is the unrealistic cost of developing and maintaining a detailed knowledge base describing the user’s different activities, and which people, meetings, emails, etc. are affiliated with each such activity. This paper presents a cluster...
متن کاملMediating between AI and highly specialized users
We report part of the design experience gained in X-Media, a system for knowledge management and sharing. Consolidated techniques of interaction design (scenariobased design) had to be revisited to capture the richness and complexity of intelligent interactive systems. We show that the design of intelligent systems requires methodologies (faceted scenarios) that support the investigation of int...
متن کاملModeling Human-Agent Interaction with Active Ontologies
As computer systems continue to grow in power and access more networked content and services, we believe there will be an increasing need to provide more user-centric systems that act as intelligent assistants, able to interact naturally with human users and with the information environment. Building such systems is a difficult task that requires expertise in many AI fields, ranging from reason...
متن کاملMovieReco: A Recommendation System
Recommender Systems act as personalized decision guides, aiding users in decisions on matters related to personal taste. Most previous research on Recommender Systems has focused on the statistical accuracy of the algorithms driving the systems, with no emphasis on the trustworthiness of the user. RS depends on information provided by different users to gather its knowledge. We believe, if a la...
