Abstract

In the paper web-based system user interface hybrid recommendation method based on the ant colony metaphor is presented. In this paper we apply the ontology-based user and user interface modeling. The role of ontologies in the user and user interface modeling is determining objects, concepts and relations between them. The user model is represented as a tuple and user interface model is represented by a set of connected nodes. The recommendation is performed using ant colony metaphor for selection the most optimal path in the user interface graph that specifies the user interface parameters for the specified user. The applied hybrid recommendation method is based on: demographic, content-based and collaborative filtering.
