Recommending personalized running routes is a challenging task. When the runner’s specific background as well as needs, preferences and goals are taken into account, a recommender cannot only rely on e.g. a set of existing routes ran by others, but needs to individually generate each route while considering many different aspects that determine whether a suggestion will satisfy the runner in the end, e.g. height meters or areas passed.

When the runner’s specific background as well as needs, preferences and goals are taken into account, a recommender cannot only rely on e.g. a set of existing routes ran by others, but needs to individually generate each route while considering many different aspects that determine whether a suggestion will satisfy the runner in the end, e.g. height meters or areas passed. We describe a framework that summarizes these aspects, allowing to generate personalized running routes. Based on this framework, we present a prototypical smartphone app that we implemented to actually demonstrate how running routes can be recommended based on the different requirements a runner might have. A first small study where users had to try this app and ran some of the recommended routes underlines the general effectiveness of our approach.» weiterlesen» einklappen
