This book focuses on enhancing computer-human interfaces with artificial intelligence technology. Work in this area aims to develop intelligent interfaces that can understand the intentions of the user, communicate to the user, advise the user and adapt their interactions with the user based on the results of previous interactions. After an introduction to the field and its theoretical underpinnings, the book addresses specific architectures for intelligent interfaces, multiple communication modes, user and system models, user goals and intentions and interface building tools.
