Abstract

Performance of a cognitive personal assistant, RADAR, consisting of multiple machine learning components, natural language processing, and optimization was examined with a test explicitly developed to measure the impact of integrated machine learning when used by a human user in a real world setting. Three conditions (conventional tools, Radar without learning, and Radar with learning) were evaluated in a large-scale, between-subjects study. The study revealed that integrated machine learning does produce a positive impact on overall performance. This paper also discusses how specific machine learning components contributed to human-system performance.
