Example Adaptive Hypermedia Systems
We show examples that are very different:
- TV Scout: personalized TV guide (GMD Darmstadt)
- AIMS: Adaptive Information Management System (TU/e+UT)
- ISIS-Tutor: Tutorial for Library Information System (Moscow State University and Univ. of Trier)
- SQL-Tutor: Intelligent Tutoring System for SQL (Canterbury, New Zealand)
- Interbook: Adaptive Electronic Textbooks (Univ. of Pittsburgh)
- INTRIGUE: adaptable tourist guide (Univ. of Torino)
- HERA: Data Integration and Presentation Generation in Web-Based Information Systems (TU/e)
- The ARIA Photo Agent (MIT) with commonsense reasoning
Notes:
In this part of the adaptive hypermedia course we are going to look at examples that are very different.
TV Scout is an example of a personalized TV guide. It can give you advice on what to watch on television tonight or later this week, based on your preferences and on feedback from other users.
We have a look at AIMS, an adaptive task-based browsing and retrieval system for educational applications, initially developed at the University of Twente, but that research was later continued at our university, by Lora Aroyo.
We will look at ISIS-Tutor, SQL-Tutor and Interbook, three systems that show a clear evolution in the history of adaptive educational systems.
We then try the INTRIGUE system that offers potential tourists to the Torino area some advice as to which places to visit, when traveling alone or with family.
We briefly study HERA, the hypermedia data integration and presentation generation research performed in our university, by Geert-Jan Houben.
We then look at second-order adaptation, meaning adaptation that is applied to the adaptive behavior of the system. An example of second-order adaptation is adaptation to learning styles, in an already adaptive learning system.
Finally we show the ARIA Photo Agent from MIT, a system that lets you use and annotate photos with very little effort.
