Using Basic Level Concepts in a Linked Data Graph to Detect User's Domain Familiarity

Description

No / We investigate how to provide personalized nudges to aid a user’s

exploration of linked data in a way leading to expanding her domain

knowledge. This requires a model of the user’s familiarity with domain

concepts. The paper examines an approach to detect user domain familiarity by

exploiting anchoring concepts which provide a backbone for probing

interactions over the linked data graph. Basic level concepts studied in

Cognitive Science are adopted. A user study examines how such concepts can

be utilized to deal with the cold start user modelling problem, which informs a

probing algorithm.
