ITR: A Case-Based Travel Advisory System
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a web based recommender system aimed at supporting a user in information filtering and product bundling. The system enables the selection of travel locations, activities and attractions, and supports the bundling of a personalized travel plan. A travel plan is composed in a mixed initiative way: the user poses queries and the recommender exploits an innovative technology that helps the user, when needed, to reformulate the query. Travel plans are stored in a memory of cases, which is exploited for ranking travel items extracted from catalogues. A new ’collaborative’ approach is introduced, where user past behavior similarity is replaced with session (travel plan) similarity.

متن کاملCase-Based Session Modeling and Personalization in a Travel Advisory System
Knowledge intensive session modeling and mixed initiative recommendation are introduced in the CBR framework. The advantages of this approach, with respect to traditional web logs plus Data Mining, are shown. On-line, dynamic identification of in-context past similar sessions is exploited for building personalized recommendations. Session components, which are hierarchically structured, are sel...
