Adapting Pervasive Environments through Machine Learning and Dynamic Personalization
TL;DR: In this paper, the Daidalos Personalization and Learning system monitors user behaviour and context to not only build and maintain dynamic preferences but also to apply them in a dynamic fashion, in order to adapt a pervasive environment on a user?s behalf.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Managing User Preferences for Personalization in a Pervasive Service Environment
TL;DR: Some of the strategies involved in managing user preferences and the approaches being taken in the Daidalos system are discussed, and in particular in the second phase a novel approach is proposed to deal with this problem.
