Contexte :
The goal of a recommendation strategy is to estimate a user’s interest for items she has not expressed interest for before, and return the items she is most likely to appreciate.
Context-aware recommendations refer to the need to take into account additional information in serving recommendations in serving content to users. Context refers to many different dimensions, temporal (time of day or time of year), geographical (at home or at work), presence of absence of others (in the company of friends or in the company of kids), etc. Context can be utilized at various stages of the recommendation process, including at the pre-filtering and the post-filtering stages and also as an integral part of the contextual modeling. This project aims at investigating how various techniques of using the contextual information can be combined into a single recommendation approach to improve recommendation accuracy. These techniques will be applied in a real use-case provided by our industrial partner, Total.
