Dimensions of Adjustable Autonomy and Mixed-Initiative Interaction

Abstract. Several research groups have grappled with the problem of characterizing and developing practical approaches for implementing adjustable autonomy and mixed-initiative interaction in deployed systems. However, each group takes a little different approach and uses variations of the same terminology in a somewhat different fashion. In this chapter, we will describe some common dimensions in order to better understand these important but ill-characterized topics. We will also sketch the approach to implementation we are developing in the context of our research on policygoverned autonomous systems.
