An integrated search and adaptive discovery system and method integrates contents-based indexing and behavioral-based indexing of collections of computer-implemented objects to generate contextualized and/or personalized recommendations. The degree to which contextualization and/or personalization criteria are applied in generating recommendations can be tuned by the recommendation recipient. Personalization functions are applied that are informed by inferred interests and/or expertise, and personalization vectors can be transformed into a format executable by a search engine. Explanations may be provided to recommendation recipients as to why they received recommendations. |
