چکیده

In this paper we describe Calvin, an intelligent agent that learns user interests by monitoring user activities while he/she searches and browses the Web. The user pro le is created and maintained from a contentbased and event-based analysis of the visited pages using Inductive Logic Programming. The user submits queries which are expanded considering the information represented in her/his pro le. Once the expanded query is submitted to and answered by a search engine, the agent performs a relevance ranking of the results based on the user interests. After some experiments, Calvin has demonstrated to be capable of learning and adapting user interests without any explicit feedback from her/him.
