Abstract

In this extended abstract, we present a novel interactive method to elicit the tacit
prior knowledge of an expert user for improving the accuracy of prediction models.
The main component of our method is an interactive user intent model that models
the domain expert’s knowledge on the relevance of different features for a prediction task. The user intent model selects the features on which to elicit user’s knowledge sequentially, based on the earlier user input. The results of a feasibility study show that our method improves prediction accuracy, when predicting the relative citation counts of scientific documents in a specific domain.
