A comparison of two compound critiquing systems

Pearl Pu Faltings, Jiyong Zhang

Compound critiques allow users to simultaneously express directional preferences over several product attributes. Presenting the user with compound critiques is not a new idea. The original Find-Me Systems (e.g., Car Navigator) showed static compound criti ...

A comparative study of compound critique generation in conversational recommender systems

Pearl Pu Faltings, Jiyong Zhang

Critiquing techniques provide an easy way for users to feedback their preferences over one or several attributes of the products in a conversational recommender system. While unit critiques only allow users to critique one attribute of the products each ti ...

Effort and accuracy analysis of choice strategies for electronic product catalogs

Pearl Pu Faltings, Jiyong Zhang

One crucial task for e-commerce systems is to help buyers find products that not only satisfy their preferences but also reduce their search effort. Usually the amount of available products is far beyond the upper limit that any individual could process by ...
