Supervision of learning methods in user data interpretation

Maya Sappelli, Suzan Verberne, Wessel Kraaij

Abstract: Knowledge workers need support in their daily activities to handle the information stream they encounter continuously (e.g. e-mail, search results etc.). One method for this is to place the information in context, i.e. to what activity is the information related? For this purpose, contexts need to be recognized. Additionally, this should happen in an unobtrusive way such that the worker is not disrupted and can remain focused at his work-related activities.
