Temporal Modelling of Customer Behaviour
This book describes advanced machine learning models – such as temporal collaborative filtering, stochastic models and Bayesian nonparametrics – for analysing customer behaviour. It shows how they are used to track changes in customer behaviour, monitor the evolution of customer groups, and detect various factors, such as seasonal effects and preference drifts, that may influence customers’ purchasing behaviour. In addition, the book presents four case studies conducted with data from a supermarket health program in which the customers were segmented and the impact of promotional activities on different segments was evaluated. The outcomes confirm that the models developed here can be used to effectively analyse dynamic behaviour and increase customer engagement. Importantly, the methods introduced here can also be used to analyse other types of behavioural data such as activities on social networks, and educational systems.
User Modeling and Adaptation for Daily Routines
User Modeling and Adaptation for Daily Routines is motivated by the need to bring attention to how people with special needs can benefit from adaptive methods and techniques in their everyday lives. Assistive technologies, adaptive systems and context-aware applications are three well-established research fields. There is, in fact, a vast amount of literature that covers HCI-related issues in each area separately. However, the contributions in the intersection of these areas have been less visible, despite the fact that such synergies may have a great impact on improving daily living. Presenting a comprehensive review of state-of-the-art practices on user modeling and adaptation for people w...
Human and Machine Learning
With an evolutionary advancement of Machine Learning (ML) algorithms, a rapid increase of data volumes and a significant improvement of computation powers, machine learning becomes hot in different applications. However, because of the nature of “black-box” in ML methods, ML still needs to be interpreted to link human and machine learning for transparency and user acceptance of delivered solutions. This edited book addresses such links from the perspectives of visualisation, explanation, trustworthiness and transparency. The book establishes the link between human and machine learning by exploring transparency in machine learning, visual explanation of ML processes, algorithmic explanati...
Advances in Ubiquitous User Modelling
Ubiquitous user modeling differs from generic user modeling by three additional concepts: ongoing modeling, ongoing sharing, and ongoing exploitation. Systems that share their user models will improve the coverage, the level of detail, and the reliability of the integrated user models and thus allow better functions of adaptation. Ubiquitous user modeling implies new challenges of interchangeability, scalability, scrutability, and privacy. This volume presents results of a series of workshops on the topic of Ubiquitous User Modeling since 2003 and additional workshops at various other conferences e.g. on User Modeling and Adaptive Hypermedia in the last four years. The 8 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from the best lectures given at the workshops and were significantly extended to be included in the book.
Collaborative Recommendations: Algorithms, Practical Challenges And Applications
Recommender systems are very popular nowadays, as both an academic research field and services provided by numerous companies for e-commerce, multimedia and Web content. Collaborative-based methods have been the focus of recommender systems research for more than two decades.The unique feature of the compendium is the technical details of collaborative recommenders. The book chapters include algorithm implementations, elaborate on practical issues faced when deploying these algorithms in large-scale systems, describe various optimizations and decisions made, and list parameters of the algorithms.This must-have title is a useful reference materials for researchers, IT professionals and those keen to incorporate recommendation technologies into their systems and services.
Artificial Intelligence in Medicine
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Medicine, AIME 2011, held in Bled, Slovenia, in July 2011. The 42 revised full and short papers presented together with 2 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 113 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on knowledge-based systems; data mining; special session on AI applications; probabilistic modeling and reasoning; terminologies and ontologies; temporal reasoning and temporal data mining; therapy planning, scheduling and guideline-based care; and natural language processing.
Autonomous Intelligent Systems: Agents and Data Mining
This volume contains the papers presented at the International Workshop Autonomous Intelligent Systems: Agents and Data Mining (AIS-ADM 2005) held in St. Petersburg, Russia, during June 6–8, 2005.
Journal on Data Semantics VI
• Data warehousing and semantic data mining • Spatial, temporal, multimedia and multimodal semantics • Semantics in data visualization • Semantic services for mobile users • Supporting tools • Applications of semantic-driven approaches These topics are to be understood as speci?cally related to semantic issues. Contributions submitted to the journal and dealing with semantics of data will be considered even if they are not within the topics in the list. While the physical appearanceof the journal issues looks like the books from the well-known Springer LNCS series, the mode of operation is that of a jo- nal. Contributions can be freely submitted by authors and are reviewed by the...
Persuasive Technology: Development and Implementation of Personalized Technologies to Change Attitudes and Behaviors
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Persuasive Technology, PERSUASIVE 2017, held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, in April 2017. The 23 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 85 submissions. The papers are grouped in topical sections on health(care), monitoring, and coaching; personality, personalization, and persuasion; motivations, facilitators, and barriers; design principles and strategies.
