In this age of information overload, people use a variety of strategies to make choices about what to buy, how to spend their leisure time, and even whom to date. Recommender systems automate some of these strategies with the goal of providing affordable, personal, and high-quality recommendations. This book offers an overview of approaches to developing state-of-the-art recommender systems. The authors present current algorithmic approaches for generating personalized buying proposals, such as collaborative and content-based filtering, as well as more interactive and knowledge-based approaches. They also discuss how to measure the effectiveness of recommender systems and illustrate the methods with practical case studies. The final chapters cover emerging topics such as recommender systems in the social web and consumer buying behavior theory. Suitable for computer science researchers and students interested in getting an overview of the field, this book will also be useful for professionals looking for the right technology to build real-world recommender systems.
Knowledge-based Configuration incorporates knowledge representation formalisms to capture complex product models and reasoning methods to provide intelligent interactive behavior with the user. This book represents the first time that corporate and academic worlds collaborate integrating research and commercial benefits of knowledge-based configuration. Foundational interdisciplinary material is provided for composing models from increasingly complex products and services. Case studies, the latest research, and graphical knowledge representations that increase understanding of knowledge-based configuration provide a toolkit to continue to push the boundaries of what configurators can do and ...
Domain Oriented Systems Development is the sixth volume in the Advanced Information Processing Technology series of the Information Processing Society of Japan. It draws together a collection of research papers on domain analysis and modeling written by a group of software engineers and researchers from Japan, Korea, Canada and Austria. The
This book discusses different aspects of group recommender systems, which are systems that help to identify recommendations for groups instead of single users. In this context, the authors present different related techniques and applications. The book includes in-depth summaries of group recommendation algorithms, related industrial applications, different aspects of preference construction and explanations, user interface aspects of group recommender systems, and related psychological aspects that play a crucial role in group decision scenarios.
The main aim of this research book is to report a sample of the most recent advances in the field of intelligent interactive systems in knowledge-based environment. The contents of this book include: Introduction to intelligent interactive systems Affective bi-modal intelligent tutoring system Estimation of development costs in intelligent systems Narrative interactive learning Knowledge acquisition for configurable products and services Interaction modalities in mobile contexts Face images classification for human-computer interactions Users modelling for distance learning Group adaptation and group modelling A personalized news aggregator on the web. This book would prove useful to the researchers, professors, research students and practitioners as it reports novel research work on innovative topics in the area of intelligent interactive systems.
The International Conference on Industrial, Engineering and Other Applications of Applied Intelligent Systems (IEA/AIE), always sponsored by the International So- ety of Applied Intelligence (ISAI), emphasizes applications of applied intelligent systems to solve real-life problems in all areas. It is held every year and has become one of the biggest and most important academic activities concerning the theory and applications of intelligent systems in the world. The IEA/AIE 2009 conference was hosted by the National University of Tainan and National University of Kaohsiung in Taiwan. This was the first time that the IEA/AIE conference was held in Taiwan. We received 286 papers from all parts...

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Conference on the Unified Modeling Language, 2000, held in York, UK in October 2000. The 36 revised full papers presented together with two invited papers and three panel outlines were carefully reviewed and selected from 102 abstracts and 82 papers submitted. The book offers topical sections on use cases, enterprise applications, applications, roles, OCL tools, meta-modeling, behavioral modeling, methodology, actions and constraints, patterns, architecture, and state charts.
The phenomenal growth of the Internet has resulted in huge amounts of online information, a situation that is overwhelming to the end users. To overcome this problem, personalization technologies have been extensively employed.The book is the first of its kind, representing research efforts in the diversity of personalization and recommendation techniques. These include user modeling, content, collaborative, hybrid and knowledge-based recommender systems. It presents theoretic research in the context of various applications from mobile information access, marketing and sales and web services, to library and personalized TV recommendation systems.This volume will serve as a basis to researchers who wish to learn more in the field of recommender systems, and also to those intending to deploy advanced personalization techniques in their systems.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Joint German/Austrian Conference on Artificial Intelligence, KI 2001, held in Vienna, Austria in September 2001. The 29 revised full technical papers presented together with one invited paper and four posters of industrial papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 79 submissions. All current aspects in AI are addressed, ranging from theoretical and foundational issues to industrial applications.
