A New Look at the Semantics and Optimization Methods of CP-Networks
Preference elicitation is a serious bottleneck in many decision support applications and agent specification tasks. CP-nets were designed to make the preference elicitation proces...

On the Foundations of Expected Expected Utility
Intelligent agents often need to assess user utility functions in order to make decisions on their behalf, or predict their behavior. When uncertainty exists over the precise natu...

Adaptive preference elicitation for top-K recommendation tasks using GAI-networks
The enormous number of questions needed to acquire a full preference model when the size of the outcome space is large forces us to work with partial models that approximate the u...

The permutable POMDP: fast solutions to POMDPs for preference elicitation
The ability for an agent to reason under uncertainty is crucial for many planning applications, since an agent rarely has access to complete, error-free information about its envi...

Case-Based Ranking for Decision Support Systems
Abstract. Very often a planning problem can be formulated as a ranking problem: i.e. to find an order relation over a set of alternatives. The ranking of a finite set of alternat...
