Extracted Abstract:

Recommender systems are becoming common tools sup- porting automatic, context-based retrieval of resources. When the number of retrieved resources grows large vi- sual tools are required that leverage the capacity of hu- man vision to analyse large amounts of information. We introduce a Web-based visual tool for exploring and or- ganising recommendations retrieved from multiple sources along dimensions relevant to cultural heritage and educa- tional context. Our tool provides several views support- ing filtering in the result set and integrates a bookmarking system for organising relevant resources into topic collec- tions. Building upon these features we envision a system which derives user’s interests from performed actions and uses this information to support the recommendation pro- cess. We also report on results of the performed usability evaluation and derive directions for further development. 1
