ABSTRACT

In this demo paper, we present TourRec, amobile Recommender System (RS) for tourist trips, sequences of points of interest (POIs) along enjoyable routes. The core of TourRec is a modular, multi-tier architecture facilitating the development and evaluation of new recommendation algorithms, clients and data sources. We show how the TourRec Android application can be used to recommend tourist trips to individuals and groups. Furthermore, we explain how TourRec supports the evaluation of different recommendation algorithms and group recommendation strategies. A video demonstrating how TourRec works is available under https://youtu.be/o_yx8UGvvvo.
