Abstract:

One of the most important challenges facing us today is to personalize services based on user preferences. In order to achieve this objective, the design of Recommender Systems (RSs), which are systems designed to aid the users through different decision-making processes by providing recommendations to them, have been an active area of research. RSs may produce personalized and non-personalized recommendations. Non-personalized RSs provide general suggestions to a user, based on the number of times an item has been selected in the past. Personalized RSs, on the other hand, aim to predict the m

Abstract:

Recommender systems assist users in finding what they want. The challenging issue is how to efficiently acquire user preferences or user information needs for building personalized recommender systems. This research explores the acquisition of user preferences using data taxonomy information to enhance personalized recommendations for alleviating cold-start problem. A concept hierarchy model is proposed, which provides a two-dimensional hierarchy for acquiring user preferences. The language model is also extended for the proposed hierarchy in order to generate an effective recommender algorith

Abstract:

Adequate housing is an important issue for any society; no one can ignore the importance of providing adequate housing for citizens in any country. Purchasing a home is a major investment; it takes a huge part of people’s income. Therefore, it is important to know what in the market is suitable for consumers, to categorise and analyse consumer preferences, and understand their changes in behaviour, looking at the differences in the demographics and the population segment in order to create a better home environment. However, solutions that are not consistent with consumer ambitions and self-co

Abstract:

In a fast-changing retail environment, including hard competition and demanding consumers, the customer experience of the purchasing service is crucial to gain a competitive advantage. Since consumers are to some extent moving from offline to online, and from desktop shopping to purchasing clothing in a mobile application, there is a need for investigating consumers expectations of their experience of a mobile application. The existing and performance of attributes and functions determines the satisfaction of the user experience, which is why it is reasonable to investigate expectations concer

Abstract:

This research is a step forward in the study of generating item recommendations for the tag-based systems, in which two efficient tagging data interpretation schemes and four ranking methods are developed. The interpretation schemes apply ranking constraints to interpret the tagging data that allow a ranked representation and result in richer data. The ranking methods fall into the category of point-wise and list-wise based ranking approaches that consider the recommendation task as regression/classification and ranking respectively. This thesis, in particular, shows that tagging data interpre

Abstract:

Despite its potential multiple contributions to sustainable policy objectives, urban transit is generally not widely used by the public in terms of its market share compared to that of automobiles, particularly in affluent societies with low-density urban forms like Australia. Transit service providers need to attract more people to transit by improving transit quality of service. The key to cost-effective transit service improvements lies in accurate evaluation of policy proposals by taking into account their impacts on transit users. If transit providers knew what is more or less important t

Ainsi, les lacs de données sont devenus une solution attractive par rapport aux entrepôts de données classiques coûteux et fastidieux (nécessitant une démarche ETL), pour les entreprises qui souhaitent stocker leurs données. Malgré leurs volumes, les données stockées dans les lacs de données des entreprises sont souvent incomplètes voire non mises à jour vis-à-vis des besoins (requêtes) des utilisateurs.Les sources de do

This model is designed around the metaphor of scenic car driving, in which the driver slows down near areas of interest and speeds through unexciting areas. Results from a preliminary user study of our video player suggest the following: • The player should adaptively adjust the current playback speed based on the complexity of the present scene and predefined semantic events. • The player should learn use

Abstract:

abstract: Current work in planning assumes that user preferences and/or domain dynamics are completely specified in advance, and aims to search for a single solution plan to satisfy these. In many real world scenarios, however, providing a complete specification of user preferences and domain dynamics becomes a time-consuming and error-prone task. More often than not, a user may provide no knowledge or at best partial knowledge of her preferences with respect to a desired plan. Similarly, a domain writer may only be able to determine certain parts, not all, of the model of some actions in a do

Online review sites are a good source of information for the manufacturers to understand the product market. Those sites allow users of the product to express their opinions about products which provide valuable information to other people. As these reviews are easily available and contain important information about the product and users, product designers can utilize those reviews for their new product design analysis. To be competitive the designer should consider the users preferences at the time of product designing and should offer product differentiation while offering a new product. Ta

In this paper, we aim at developing a system to learn a multiple users’ preference model that represents relationships among users as well as dependency between services and sensor observations. Thus, the service can be inferred based on the learnt model. To achieve this, we propose a three-layer model in our work. At the first layer, raw data from sensors are interpreted as context information after noise removal. The
