Abstract: The present system and method may generally include organizing the task flow of a virtual agent in a way that is controlled by a set of rules and set of conditional probability distributions. The system and method may include receiving a user utterance including a first task, identifying the first task from the user utterance, and obtaining a set of rules related to the plurality of tasks. The set of rules may determine whether pre-tasks and/or pre-conditions are to be executed before executing the first task. The set of rules may also determine whether post-tasks and/or post-conditions are to be executed after executing the first task. The system and method may include executing the task; running a probabilistic graphical model on the plurality of tasks to determine a second task based on the first task; suggesting to the user the second task; and updating the probabilistic graphical model after a threshold number of runs.
