1. An electronic device for predicting an intention of a user, the electronic device being configured to:
predict at least one first intention of the user based on context information associated with the user;
determine a question based on the at least one first intention of the user;
provide the question to the user;
receive a response to the question from the user; and
predict at least one second intention of the user based on the at least one first intention of the user and the response to the question from the user,
wherein the device is configured to predict the at least one first intention of the user based on the context information associated with the user by:
combining a plurality of sparse vectors corresponding to a plurality of context information associated with the user so as to obtain a combined sparse vector; and
predicting the at least one first intention based on random indexing of the combined sparse vector.
