Abstract

Autonomous information agents alleviate the information overload problem on the Internet. The AGM belief revision framework provides a rigorous foundation to develop adaptive information agents. The expressive power of the belief revision logic allow a user's information preferences and contextual knowledge of a retrieval situation to be captured and reasoned about within a single logical framework. Contextual knowledge for information retrieval can be acquired via context sensitive text mining. THis paper illustrates a novel approach of integrating the proposed text mining method into the belief revision based adaptive information agents to improve the agents' learning autonomy and prediction power.
