One of the main challenges in search engine quality of service is how to satisfy the needs and the interests of individualusers. This raises the fundamental issue of how to identify and select the information that is relevant to a specific user. This concern over generic provision and the lack of search precision have provided the impetus for the research into Web Search personalisation. In this paper a hybrid user profiling system is proposed -a combination of explicit and implicit user profiles for improving the web search effectiveness in terms of precision and recall. The proposed system is content-based and implements the Vector Space Model. Experimental results, supported by significance tests, indicate that the system offers better precision and recall in comparison to traditional search engines.

“…The aim of this paper is to present a collaborative recommendation system that implements a cascade of strategies in order to support the learning in an elearning environment. The collaborative process determines similarities between learners by taking advantage of the underlying implicit or explicit personalisation and of the non-personalised modes of interaction [3]. In the personalised approach implicit profiles are based on the patterns of behaviour of learners and their interaction with learning objects, while explicit profiles are generated from the results of a questionnaire on learning style.…”
