A System For Recommendation Of Accommodation Facilities Adaptable To User Interest

In this chapter we present a method for interactive retrieval of information on accommodation facilities to support travelling customers in their travel preparations. The proposed method consists of four main functions. Firstly, the system procedure performs primary and secondary search. Secondly, the system obtains information on user interests through an interactive interface. Thirdly, it computes the suitability of accommodation information based on user interest. Finally, the accommodation information is visualized in order of suitability in lists and graphs. The results of an evaluation experiment showed that over 80% of evaluators supported our system more than the baseline system. Therefore the principal functions of the proposed method are significantly effective.
