Subject: 2nd CFP for Intnal Workshop on Personalization Enhanced Access to Cultural Heritage
CFP for International Workshop on Personalization Enhanced Access to Cultural Heritage
http://www.cs.vu.nl/~laroyo/PATCH.html
in conjunction with UM'2007
http://www.iit.demokritos.gr/um2007/
Cultural Heritage gains lately a lot of attention. On the one hand, the
scientific field explores the possibilities to provide appropriate
technologies for digital and integrated access to cultural heritage
collections. On the other hand, the cultural heritage institutions are 数据挖掘论坛
more and more eager to collaborate among each other and to provide
personalized views, navigation and access to their virtual and physical
collections.
Personalization could improve the museum websites and museum guide systems
usability by supporting users' navigation and assisting them in quickly
finding an appropriate starting point and to discover new relevant
information. In this process, the museum systems consider users' personal
characteristics, such as age, education, previous knowledge (when
available), together with visitor's behavior, in order to support a better
comprehension of the collection. Studies show that understanding is
stimulated when the systems use concepts familiar to the users
(considering their interests and knowledge level). Thus, museums can
automatically adapt the content presentation using user data stored in a
user profile. Users can explicitly fill in online forms to provide such
data. Additionally, the system can monitor their activities to infer and 数据挖掘交友
record their preferences.
The workshop will focus on the specific challenges of personalization in
cultural setting and exploring novel ideas for coping with these
challenges.
Goals of the Wokrshop
The prime goal of this workshop is to gather researchers from different
fields, e.g. user modeling, mobile, ubiquitous and ambient technologies,
artificial intelligence and web information systems and explore various
practical use cases of application of those technologies. During the
workshop we would like to identify the typical user groups, tasks and
roles in order to achieve adequate personalization for Cultural Heritage
applications. Important aspects to discuss are related to:
* Localization
* Interaction Concepts
* Navigation and browsing patterns
* Collaboration, communication and sharing aspects in the process of
cultural heritage consumption
* Information access and search patterns and needs
Based on this, we would like to identify a set of requirements for user
and context modeling for this domain, and realize practical guidelines for
deploying personalization techniques in the cultural heritage domain.
Topics of interest
User and context modeling in digital Cultural Heritage context
* Ontology-based user profiles
* Contextualized user profiles
* Cross-context user modeling
* Ambient user models
* Interactive user modeling
* Interactive user feedback collection
Personalized services and personalized information access for Cultural
Heritage
* Museums
* Digital archives
* Digital libraries
* Creative industries
* Municipality public services 数据挖掘工具
* Tourist services
Personalized information presentation, navigation and browsing in digital
and physical cultural heritage collections
* Integration of virtual and physical collections
* Ambient Cultural Heritage
* Mobile museum guides & personal museum assistants
* Contex-aware information presentation
* Adaptive navigation and browsing
* Personalized museum guides
* Interactive user interfaces
Cultural Heritage virtual and physical collection use of:
* Semantic Web technologies (e.g. domain ontologies, user and context
ontologies, common vocabularies, reasoning on the SW for
personalization)
* Recommendation strategies
* Adaptation strategies for text and non-verbal content
* NLG techniques for mobile user modeling 数据挖掘实验室
Evaluations and real life use cases of personalization in Cultural
Heritage (e.g. web-based, mobile and other interactive applications)
