From Consumer Preferences Towards Buying Decisions - Conjoint Analysis as Preference Measuring Method in Product Recommender Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper briefly introduces the conjoint analysis as a method to measure consumer preferences. Based on the introduction the conjoint analysis is suggested as preference measuring method in product recommender systems. The challenges and limits in applying the conjoint analysis to product recommender systems are analysed and discussed. In the end we present a set of adaptations to the traditional conjoint analysis which address the mentioned challenges and limits.

متن کاملImplications of Consumer Information Behaviour to Construct Utility-based Recommender Systems: A Prototypical Study
Product recommender systems aim to support consumers in making buying decisions. However, such a support requires considering the consumer behaviour in making buying decisions. In this paper, we deduce design requirements for utility-based recommender systems from the theory of consumer information behaviour and present empirically findings from experiments conducted with a prototypical impleme...
متن کاملA configuration-based recommender system for supporting e-commerce decisions
Multi-attribute value theory (MAVT)-based recommender systems have been proposed for dealing with issues of existing recommender systems, such as the cold-start problem and changing preferences. However, as we argue in this paper, existing MAVT-based methods for measuring attribute importance weights do not fit the shopping tasks for which recommender systems are typically used. These methods a...
