Goals in Social Media, information retrieval and intelligent agents

This tutorial provides a comprehensive and cohesive overview of goal modeling and recognition approaches by the Information Retrieval, the Artificial Intelligence and the Social Media communities. We will examine how these fields restrict the domain of study and how they capture notions easily perceived by humans' intuition but difficult to be formally defined and handled algorithmically. It is the purpose of this tutorial to provide a solid framework for placing existing work into perspective and highlight critical open challenges that will act as a springboard for researchers and practitioners in database systems, social data, and the Web, as well as developers of web-based, database-driven, and social applications, to work towards more user-centric systems and applications.
