With A Little Help From Yelp
نویسندگان
چکیده
INTRODUCTION Today, people commonly use applications that allow them to search for the best restaurants (Yelp), hotels (TripAdvisor), plane tickets (Expedia), and merchandise (Amazon). These applications, although extremely useful for narrowing down a large list of data to a few selections that meet certain user-specified criteria, are not very good at providing a general overview or aggregation of the data. For example, Yelp provides options such as neighborhood, distance from a certain location, features (like whether they have a bar, good for kids, or have free wifi), price, and category (e.g., restaurant, fast food, seafood, etc.). The user can then select the options that they would like and in return receive a list of restaurants that meet these requirements. Although this method shrinks a large number of possibilities to a small group of options that the user can select from (see Figure 1), the user is not given any form of overview except for a map with the locations of the restaurants that the query returned.
