“…Most of these systems disregarded users' time context and time-dependent watching patterns. As users' time context is an important factor for TV watching, other TV recommender systems use time context as input, which is a time-aware system [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. In this section, these two types of TV recommender systems are surveyed.…”

“…In recent years, TV recommender systems considering time-aware consumption patterns have been actively researched [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. For example, Oh et al proposed a time-dependent user profiling technique that splits a user's watching logs into certain time slots and re-merges consecutive time slots by using a hierarchical clustering method [13].…”

“…It is a kind of information filtering system that predicts users' ratings or preferences for items and provides users with items that they may be interested in. It is applied in a variety of domains such as movies, music, books, news, and any other contents in general [1,4,18,20,22,[25][26][27][28][29]. As a result, many recommendation algorithms have been developed for these domains in recent years.…”

In this paper, a novel television (TV) program recommendation method is proposed by merging multiple preferences. We use channels and genres of programs, which is available information in standalone TVs, as features for the recommendation. The proposed method performs multi-time contextual profiling and constructs multiple-time contextual preference matrices of channels and genres. Since multiple preference models are constructed with different time contexts, there can be conflicts among them. In order to effectively merge the preferences with the minimum number of conflicts, we develop a quadratic programming model. The optimization problem is formulated with a minimum number of constraints so that the optimization process is scalable and fast even in a standalone TV with low computational power. Experiments with a real-world dataset prove that the proposed method is more efficient and accurate than other TV recommendation methods. Our method improves recommendation performance by 5-50% compared to the baselines.

“…Different solutions based on explicit or implicit ratings or collaborative, content-based or hybrid methods have been proposed for the TV recommendation problem [1,11,12]. The TV movie recommendation task to a user on a certain day has the following challenges, which may not be the case for most of the other recommendation tasks.…”

TV users have an abundance of different movies they could choose from, and with the quantity and quality of data available both on user behavior and content, better recommenders are possible. In this paper, we evaluate and combine different content-based and collaborative recommendation methods for a Turkish movie recommendation system. Our recommendation methods can make use of user behavior, different types of content features, and other users' behavior to predict movie ratings. We gather different types of data on movies, such as the description, actors, directors, year, and genre. We use natural language processing methods to convert the Turkish movie descriptions into keyword vectors. Then, for each user, we use the content features and the user's past implicit ratings to produce content feature-based user profiles. In order to have more reliable profiles, we do feature selection on these profiles. We show that for each feature space, such as actor, director, or keyword, a different amount of feature selection may be optimal. Different recommenders may also perform best for a different number of movies available as training data for a user. We also combine different content-based recommenders and collaborative recommenders using an aggregation or the best of the available recommenders. Experimental results on a dataset with hundreds of users and movies show that, especially for users who have watched a small number of movies in the past, feature selection can increase recommendation success.

user's device and the service provider. The task of inferring contextual preferences is based on machine learning methods, and context-aware information filtering is based on content-based filtering technique. The concept of contextual user profile is presented and discussed. To demonstrate the functionalities in a usage scenario a context-aware recommender system was developed as a case study applying the PersonalTVware.
