Tabbed Browsing Behavior as a Source for User Modeling
نویسندگان
چکیده
In our research, we focus on improving the user model by using novel sources of user feedback – tabbed browsing behavior of the users (also called parallel browsing). The tabbing is nowadays established as the more accurate description of browsing activities than the previous linear representation. Users take advantage of multiple tabs in various scenarios, by which they express different relations and preferences to hypermedia being visited in such tabs. The aimed contribution is to include this behavior into the user model, so improving accuracy of modeled user’s characteristics and thus improving personalization.

Over the last few years, browser tabs have become a very common tool for web users and have been extensively used to perform parallel navigations. Tabbing facilitates web browsing but results in an imbrication of navigations, which makes it more difficult to understand users’ behavior. That is why very recent research has been focusing in analyzing this new kind of usage. This work follows a pr...

متن کاملAn Ontological User Modeling Approach Using Wikipedia’s Content for Cross-System Personalization
In this work, we are building a personalization engine for web pages across systems by using Wikipedia’s content as an ontological model. The model captures domain topics of any web page for user modeling purposes. Our system formulates a semantic user profile by analyzing the user’s browsing behavior, assuming that frequent browsing in a topical area implies a user’s interest in that area. We ...
