Abstract:
This work in progress expands a previous study, where we proposed a decision-making framework designed to address the following need: an end-user contacts a domain expert to help him solve a problem. The end-user and the domain expert establish an interaction between them, consisting of questions and answers. This interaction is required to be effective, and to this end, the number of questions must be limited. The purpose of the framework is to suggest the next question to the domain expert, while he interacts with the end user. The framework consists of inference algorithms, making use of the domain expert’s knowledge, which is structured into a knowledge graph. During the interaction, the end-user provides data that is fed into the graph as evidence and serves the inference algorithms to refine the next recommended question to the domain expert. The proposed extension refers to the addition of an existing ontology, describing the relevant domain, to the framework's base of knowledge. In particular, we want to take advantage of the knowledge, existing in the ontology (i.e., concepts and their relations), to enrich the framework's ability to offer a greater and more accurate range of questions. In the paper, we describe the proposed extension, followed by a case study.
