Abstract
A form filling application is configured to minimize the form filling effort of a user. The configuration follows concepts from reinforcement learning, and includes optimizing a policy for selecting agent actions in a manner that maximizes a reward signal. In the context of the form filling application, an agent action may specify one or more slots of the form for the user to fill, and further specify one or more user interfaces for filling the specified one or more slots. The reward signal may be defined as an inverse function of the user effort, so that maximizing the reward signal has the desired effect of minimizing the user effort.
