 Intention recognition is one of the core components of mindreading, an important process 
 in social cognition. Human beings, from age of 18 months, have been shown to be able
 to extrapolate intentions from observed actions, even when the performer failed at 
 achieving the goal. Existing accounts of intention recognition emphasize the use
 of an intent (plan) library, which is matched against observed actions for recognition.
 These therefore cannot account for recognition of failed sequences actions, nor novel actions.
 In this paper, we begin to tackle these open questions by examining computational models for components of human
 intention recognition, which emphasize the ability of humans to detect and identify intentions
 in a sequence of observed actions, based solely on the rationality of movement (its efficiency).
 We provide a high-level overview of intention recognition as a whole, and then elaborate on two components of the model, which we believe to be at
 its core, namely, those of intention detection and intention prediction. By
 \emph{intention detection} we mean the ability to discern whether a
 sequence of actions has any underlying intention at all, or whether it was
 performed in an arbitrary manner with no goal in mind. By \emph{intention
 prediction} we mean the ability to extend an incomplete sequence of actions to
 its most likely intended goal.  We evaluate the model, and these two
 components, in context of existing literature, and in a number of experiments
 with more than 140 human subjects.
 For intention detection, our model was able to attribute high levels of intention to those traces perceived by humans as intentional, and vice versa. For intention prediction as well, our model performed in a way that closely matched that of humans. The work highlights the intimate relationship between the ability to generate plans,
 and the ability to recognize intentions.
