Example systems and methods for context-aware recommendation generation are described. In one implementation, item models are built using user preference data of multiple users and item information of multiple items. When a recommendation request corresponding to a user is received, the profile of that user is retrieved from the user profile database. Given the profile of the user and the item models, utility scores are then computed for the candidate items. Our system exploits a novel approach to detect any sudden and significant changes in the preference data of the given user. If a change is detected, the utility scores are adapted to prioritize the user's most recent preferences. The computed utility scores are used as the basis for ranking the items. A subset of items with highest scores is then selected as recommendations and is presented to the user. |
