• Abstract: When suggesting Points of Interest (PoIs) to people with autism spectrum disorders, we must take into account that they have idiosyncratic sensory aversions to noise, brightness and other features that influence the way they perceive places. Therefore, recommender systems must deal with these aspects. However, the retrieval of sensory data about PoIs is a real challenge because most geographical information servers fail to provide this data. Moreover, ad-hoc crowdsourcing campaigns do not guarantee to cover large geographical areas and lack sustainability. Thus, we investigate the extraction of sensory data about places from the consumer feedback collected by location-based services, on which people spontaneously post reviews from all over the world. Specifically, we propose a model for the extraction of sensory data from the reviews about PoIs, and its integration in recommender systems to predict item ratings by considering both user preferences and compatibility information. We tested our approach with autistic and neurotypical people by integrating it into diverse recommendation algorithms. For the test, we used a dataset built in a crowdsourcing campaign and another one extracted from TripAdvisor reviews. The results show that the algorithms obtain the highest accuracy and ranking capability when using TripAdvisor data. Moreover, by jointly using these two datasets, the algorithms further improve their performance. These results encourage the use of consumer feedback as a reliable source of information about places in the development of inclusive recommender systems.

  In ad-hoc retrieval, evaluation relies heavily on user actions, including implicit feedback. The role of user feedback in annotators' assessment of turns in a conversational perception has been little studied. We focus on how the evaluation of task-oriented dialogue systems ( TDSs) is affected by considering user feedback, explicit or implicit, as provided through the follow-up utterance of a turn being evaluated.

  Existing works assume the available POI check-ins reported by users are the ground-truth depiction of user behaviors. In real application scenarios, the check-in data can be rather unreliable due to both subjective and objective causes. We propose a Bayes-enhanced Multi-view Attention Network to address the uncertainty factors of the user check-ins.

  We propose a new serendipity metric to measure the presence of echo chambers and homophily in recommendation systems. We then attempt to improve the diversity-preservation qualities of well known recommendation techniques by adopting a parent selection algorithm known as lexicase selection. Our results show that lexicase selection, or a mixture of lexicase selection and ranking, outperforms its purely ranked counterparts in terms of personalization, coverage and our specifically designed serendipity benchmark.

  Recent research proposes to debias by modeling a recommender system from a causal perspective. The critical challenge in this setting is accounting for the hidden confounders. We propose to leverage network information (i.e., user-social and user-item networks) to better approximate hidden confounders.

  Recommendation systems often draw upon sensitive user information in making predictions. We show how to address this deficiency by basing a service's recommendation engine upon recommendations from other existing services. In our setting, the user's (potentially sensitive) information belongs to a high-dimensional latent space.
