This chapter complements other chapters of this book in reviewing user models and user modeling approaches applied in adaptiveWeb systems. The presentation is structured along three dimensions: what is being modeled, how it is modeled, and how themodels are maintained. After a broad overview of the nature of the information presented in these various user models, thechapter focuses on two groups of approaches to user model representation and maintenance: the overlay approach to user modelrepresentation and the uncertainty-based approach to user modeling.
