Tourism Recommendation System based in user's profile and functionality levels

Abstract

This paper describes a proposal to develop a Tourism Recommendation System based in users enhanced profiles (composed by basic user information, relations between user and a set of stereotypes and user functionality levels). The main focus of this work is to evaluate if user's physical and psychological functionality levels considered in user's profiles creation, will produce significant changes in the recommendation results. This work aims also to contribute with a different way to classify points-of-interest (POI) considering their capacity to receive tourists with certain levels of physical and psychological issues that will be described in this paper sections.
