ABSTRACT
The number of people that use Internet as a source of information increases continuously. Internet provides a great amount of heterogeneous information. When interacting with the Web, not all the users have the same goals, interests or needs. This paper presents a recommender system for spare time activities (such as visiting museums, restaurants, conferences, etc.). It suggests the most suitable options taking into account the personal features of each user, that is, his/her preferences, economic resources, available time and disabilities. Furthermore, it provides the means of public transport to arrive at the place where the activity will be performed. The results of a case study focused on Mostoles city are presented too.

Recommendations
The Adaptive Ontology-Based Personalized Recommender System
Recommender systems provide strategies that help users search or make decisions within the overwhelming information spaces nowadays. They have played an important role in various areas such as e-commerce and e-learning. In this paper, we propose a ...
Recommend at opportune moments
AIRS'11: Proceedings of the 7th Asia conference on Information Retrieval TechnologyWe propose an approach to adapt the existing item-based (movie-based) collaborative filtering algorithm based on the timestamp of ratings to recommend movies to users at opportune moments. Over the last few years, researchers focused recommendation ...
Stochastic matching and collaborative filtering to recommend people to people
RecSys '11: Proceedings of the fifth ACM conference on Recommender systemsThe bias towards popular items is not necessarily an undesired outcome of recommender algorithms since a large amount of revenue on e-commerce websites is drawn from these popular items. On the other hand, in domains such as online dating and employment ...
