Specifically, we describe a method for using a simple topic hierarchy in combination with a standard information retrieval measure of semantic similarity to reason about the selection of appropriate feedback in response to extended language inputs in the context of an interactive tutorial system designed to support creative problem solving. Our evaluation demonstrates the value of using a machine learning approach that takes feedback from experts into account for optimizing the hierarchy based feedback selection strategy.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2007/283","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2007/0283.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2007/283.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2007/bibtex/283","volume":{"slug":"2007","title":"Proceedings of the Twentieth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 2007","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/2007/","year":2007,"location":"Hyderabad, India","dates":"","editors":"Ramon López de Mántaras","isbn":"","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence","doi_prefix":""},"section":null,"track":"","number":283,"pages":{"first":1750,"last":1754},"keywords":[],"videos":[],"references":[],"license_note":"Copyright International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence."}
