Improving augmented reality using recommender systems
Zhuo Zhang, Shang Shang, Sanjeev R. Kulkarni, Pan Hui · 2013
With the rapid development of smart devices and wireless communication, especially with the pre-launch of Google Glass, augmented reality (AR) has received enormous attention recently. AR adds virtual objects into a user's real-world environment enabling live interaction in three dimensions. Limited by the small display of AR devices, content selection is one of the key issues to improve user experience. In this paper, we present an aggregated random walk algorithm incorporating personal preferences, location information, and temporal information in a layered graph. By adaptively changing the graph edge weight and computing the rank score, the proposed AR recommender system predicts users' preferences and provides the most relevant recommendations with aggregated information.
