• Abstract: The uptake of health insurance has been poor in Nigeria, a significant step to improving this includes improved awareness, access to information and tools to support decision making. Artificial intelligence (AI) based recommender systems have gained popularity in helping individuals find movies, books, music, and different types of products on the internet including diverse applications in healthcare. The content-based methodology (item-based approach) was employed in the recommender system. We applied both the K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) and Cosine similarity algorithm. We chose the Cosine similarity as our chosen algorithm after several evaluations based of their outcomes in comparison with domain knowledge. The recommender system takes into consideration the choices entered by the user, filters the health management organization (HMO) data by location and chosen prices. It then recommends the top 3 HMOs with closest similarity in services offered. A recommendation tool to help people find and select the best health insurance plan for them is useful in reducing the barrier of accessing health insurance. Users are empowered to easily find appropriate information on available plans, reduce cognitive overload in dealing with over 100 options available in the market and easily see what matches their financial capacity.

  Major food recommendation platforms such as Yelp prioritize users' dietary preferences over the healthiness of their choices. We develop a novel framework, Multi-Objective Personalized Interpretable Health-aware Food Recommendation System (MOPI-HFRS) It provides food recommendations by jointly optimizing the three objectives: user preference, personalized healthiness and nutritional diversity, along with a large language model (LLM)-enhanced reasoning module.

  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.

  We propose a novel recommender system that aligns with agents' incentives while achieving myopically optimal performance. Our framework models this incentive-aware system as a multi-agent bandit problem in two-sided markets. Both algorithms satisfy an ex-post fairness criterion, which protects agents from over-exploitation.

  We propose a recommendation framework that helps users to select healthcare interventions. Taking into account that users' health behaviors can be highly dynamic and diverse, we propose a multi-armed bandit (MAB)-driven recommendation framework. To better adapt an MAB to the healthcare context, we synthesize two innovative model components based on prominent health theories.
