input: Text: Grad B: So I guess this is more or less now just to get you up to date, Johno. This is what, uh, Grad C: This is a meeting for me. Grad B: um, Eva, Bhaskara, and I did. Grad D: Did you add more stuff to it? <unk>pause<unk> later? Grad B: Um. Why? Grad D: Um. I don't know. There were, like, the <unk>disfmarker<unk> you know, @ @ and all that stuff. But. I thought you <unk>disfmarker<unk> you said you were adding stuff Grad B: Uh, no. Grad D: but <unk>pause<unk> I don't know. Grad B: This is <unk>disfmarker<unk> Um, Ha! Very nice. Um, so we thought that, <unk>vocalsound<unk> We can write up uh, an element, and <unk>disfmarker<unk> for each of the situation nodes that we observed in the Bayes - net? So. What's the situation like at the entity that is mentioned? if we know anything about it? Is it under construction? Or is it on fire or something <unk>pause<unk> happening to it? Or is it stable? and so forth, going all the way um, f through Parking, Location, Hotel, Car, Restroom, @ @ <unk>comment<unk> Riots, Fairs, Strikes, or Disasters. Grad C: So is <unk>disfmarker<unk> This is <unk>disfmarker<unk> A situation are <unk>disfmarker<unk> is all the things which can be happening right now? Or, what is the situation type? Grad B: That's basically <unk>pause<unk> just specifying the <unk>disfmarker<unk> the input for the <unk>disfmarker<unk> w what's Grad C: Oh, I see y Why are you specifying it in XML
  Question: How does the bayes-net deal with inputs?
  Answer:
output: The presented Bayes-net takes inputs from the Situation, User, Discourse and Ontology models. There are several values (elements) defined in each of these models. The inputs are fed into the belief-net, which, in turn, outputs the posterior probabilities for the values of all the decision nodes. These comprise "Go-there", "EVA", "Info-on", "Location", "Timing", etc. At this stage, all the decision nodes are evenly weighted: regardless of the context, each output is trusted equally. Input and output node structure was presented in XML, as this is the format that will be used for the system. A large number of the value probabilities have already been set.
