Abstract
ACKTUS is a semantic web application for modeling knowledge to be integrated in support systems for health care, and for designing the interaction with the end user applications. This paper presents the ongoing work on integrating argument-based inquiry dialogues between agents that include contextual factors in the reasoning. Practical applications of agent-based and interactive dialogue systems are rare in the medical and health domain, partly due to its safety-critical nature. The purpose of the work presented in this paper is to demonstrate the added value a personalized dialogue system can provide a clinician in clinical practice in terms of learning and decision making as supplement to a regular decision-support system in the dementia domain.
