A multi-criteria hybrid recommender system for elderly intervention plans toward successful ageing

Recommender systems are information filtering systems that cope with the issue of excessive data by filtering fragments of important information. The massive amount of information is dynamically generated according to the user’s preferences, interests, or observed behaviour of an item. Recommender s...

The CF was applied for determining similar users based on the profiles of other users. The KB filtering technique was then applied to select the interventions listed by the CF approach based on the interventions given by the experts who participated in this research to improve the well-being of the elderly and helping them to achieve successful ageing. The proposed recommendation model was evaluated based on its accuracy by using precision, recall, and F1 Measure to compare the proposed model with the baseline models using basic search (BS) and CF to determine which recommendation model was preferred in recommending interventions based on multi aspects of successful ageing.

description Recommender systems are information filtering systems that cope with the issue of excessive data by filtering fragments of important information. The massive amount of information is dynamically generated according to the user’s preferences, interests, or observed behaviour of an item. Recommender systems have been widely applied in many domains, such as e-commerce, health, food, and nutrition, movies, and many others. Currently, numerous endeavors have been made to improve the lives of those people who are elderly using recommender systems. Current assessment only focusing on a single assessment process which not comprehensive. The assessment is often used to determine the current and future interventions that should be given accurately to the elderly. To ensure that intervention plans are provided comprehensively to the elderly, many aspects need to be addressed.
