Generating Artificial Corpora for Plan Recognition

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 3538))

Abstract

Corpora for training plan recognizers are scarce and difficult to gather from humans. However, corpora could be a boon to plan recognition research, providing a platform to train and test individual recognizers, as well as allow different recognizers to be compared. We present a novel method for generating artificial corpora for plan recognition. The method uses a modified AI planner and Monte-Carlo sampling to generate action sequences labeled with their goal and plan. This general method can be ported to allow the automatic generation of corpora for different domains.
