Abstract
Visitors to physical museums are often overwhelmed by the vast amount of information available in the space they are exploring, making it difficult to select personally interesting content. Personalization solutions can provide the required user-centered interactivity between the visitors and the museum websites or museum guide systems. Recommender systems are among the most successful personalization technologies, as they have already been incorporated to solve similar problems in e-commerce, where users have a lot of choices to select a product. However, developing recommender system for museums is more challenging, because in contrast to e-commerce, museums and their exhibits exist in a physical world. Therefore, we need a hardware technology to provide us the required infrastructure to observe and model the environment and user activities. Radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology is among the best solutions for this issue, because it is cheap, fast, robust, and available everywhere. In this paper, we describe the vision of our project called RFID-Enhanced Museum for Interactive Experience (REMIX), which aims to developing a personalization platform for museums based on RFID technology and advanced recommender-systems algorithms.
