Abstract
The rapid increase of the number of channels makes it hard to find wanted programs from TV. In recent years, the number of channels come up to hundreds with the digital TV arrival. So, it will drive us to the new way of watching TV. In this paper, we introduce a recommendation system for TV programs to overcome this difficulty. We model user profiles and design each module of the system, considering TV environment. Our system gathers basic information from people manually and then updates user profiles automatically by tracking viewing and usage history. As a result, our system recommends daily TV programs based on the changing interest of users. In this paper, we address the problems and solutions by describing our system and the experiment.
