Abstract

A recommendation system finds the most suitable item for customers. However, the most suitable item is sometimes refused. The most significant reason for this failure of recommendation is that we do not want what is good for us. Therefore, to make the recommendation for acceptance, persuasion should be provided. In this paper, a method of curating information for persuasion is proposed. Cognitive bias are used to determine the layout of information for customers to accept recommendations. With the proposed method, options which are beneficial but not preferable are provided without offending the customers.
