The development, status and trends of recommender systems: a comprehensive and critical literature review

Recommender systems have been used in many fields of research and business applications. In this paper, a comprehensive and critical review of the literature on recommender systems is provided. A classification mechanism of recommender systems is proposed. The review pays attention to and covers the recommender system algorithms, application areas and data mining techniques published in relevant peer-reviewed journals between 2001 and 2013. The development of the field, status and trends are analyzed and discussed in the paper

Retrieval, reuse, revision and retention in case-based reasoning

El original está disponible en www.journals.cambridge.orgCase-based reasoning (CBR) is an approach to problem solving that emphasizes the role of prior experience during future problem solving (i.e., new problems are solved by reusing and if necessary adapting the solutions to similar problems that were solved in the past). It has enjoyed considerable success in a wide variety of problem solving tasks and domains. Following a brief overview of the traditional problem-solving cycle in CBR, we examine the cognitive science foundations of CBR and its relationship to analogical reasoning. We then review a representative selection of CBR research in the past few decades on aspects of retrieval, reuse, revision, and retention.Peer reviewe
