User Models

Uitgebreide vaknaam	User Models
Leerdoelen	At the end of this course, the student is able to: - incorporate different aspects of cognitive models in applications - have knowledge of the basic history of user modeling and its various applications.
Omschrijving	Cognitive modelling can be applied in both fundamental research, allowing for precise and fine-grained predictions, but also for more applied purposes. Where the course 'Cognitive modelling' focuses on the former approach, in User Models we will be discussing models that can be applied in the real world. An important part of this course is implementing and testing an actual user-model-based system. The lectures and reading material will provide and explain the tools that can be used to construct such a system, as well as a general background in user modelling.
