This article is an analysis of the transition to algorithm-driven front pages in two Norwegian online newspapers. In 2019, Norwegian media group Schibsted implemented front page algorithms in several of their online newspapers. While the news stories previously were ranked manually by editors, the front pages are now partly automated based on sales, clicks, and news value. According to web developers, the purpose is to free up time for more critical jour- nalistic tasks and provide their readers with more relevant content. Nevertheless, the implementation of the technol- ogy has caused concern. Critics fear that algorithms will personalize the news and weaken the experience of a shared public agenda. Drawing on qualitative interviews with web developers, front page editors, and journalists in the Nor- wegian newspapers Aftenposten and Bergens Tidende, the article examines how the front page algorithms systemize and rank news content. Although the front pages are moderately personalized, the findings show that the current design of the algorithms does not entail the self-reinforcing mechanisms associated with social media. Furthermore, news professionals imply that algorithmic curation can become essential to ensure equal access to news among dif- ferent user groups in the future.},

This technique manipulates the user's walking direction by rotating the entire virtual environment at a certain angular ratio of the door being opened, while the virtual door's position is kept unmanipulated to ensure door-opening realism. Results of a user study using two types of door-opening interfaces (with and without a passive haptic prop) revealed that the estimated detection thresholds generally showed a higher space efficiency of redirection.

We propose RedirectedDoors, a novel technique for redirection in VR focused on door-opening behavior. This technique manipulates the user's walking direction by rotating the entire virtual environment at a certain angular ratio of the door being opened, while the virtual door's position is kept unmanipulated to ensure door-opening realism. Results of a user study using two types of door-opening interfaces (with and without a passive haptic prop) revealed that the estimated detection thresholds generally showed a higher space efficiency of redirection. Following the results, we derived usage guidelines for our technique that provide lower noticeability and higher acceptability. |

Global university rankings are a commonly used, but inefficient tool, for they do not consider a person's preferences and needs.

This paper develops and evaluates a university recommender system, eliciting user preferences as ratings to build predictive models and to generate personalized university ranking lists. In Study 1, we performed offline evaluation on a rating dataset to determine which recommender approaches had the highest predictive value. In Study 2, we selected three algorithms to produce different university recommendation lists in our online tool, asking our users to compare and evaluate them in terms of different metrics (Accuracy, Diversity, Perceived Personalization, Satisfaction, and Novelty). We show that a SVD algorithm scores high on accuracy and perceived personalization, while a KNN algorithm scores better on novelty. We also report findings on preferred university features.},

abstract = {This paper addresses the so-called New Item problem in video Recommender Systems, as part of Cold Start. New item problem occurs when a new item is added to the system catalog, and the recommender system has no or little data describing that item. This could cause the system to fail to meaningfully recommend the new item to the users. We propose a novel technique that can generate cold start recommendation by utilizing automatic visual tags, i.e., tags that are automatically annotated by deeply analyzing the content of the videos and detecting faces, objects, and even celebrities within the videos. The automatic visual tags do not need any human involvement and have been shown to be very effective in representing the video content. In order to evaluate our proposed technique, we have performed a set of experiments using a large dataset of videos. The results have shown that the automatically extracted visual tags can be incorporated into the cold start recommendation process and achieve superior results compared to the recommendation based on human-annotated tags.},

In this paper, we study the impact of different recommender algorithms on the popularity bias in different application domains and recommendation scenarios. We have designed a comprehensive evaluation methodology by considering two different recommendation scenarios, i.e., the user-based scenario (e.g., recommending users to users to follow), and the item-based scenario (e.g., recommending items to users to consume). We have used two large datasets, Twitter and Movielens, and compared a wide range of classical and modern recommender algorithms by considering a diverse range of metrics, such as PR-AUC, RCE, Gini index, and Entropy Score.
The results have shown a substantial difference between different scenarios and different recommendation domains. According to our observations, while the recommendation of users to users may increase the popularity bias in the system, the recommendation of items to users may indeed decrease it. Moreover, while we have measured a different level of popularity bias in different languages (i.e., English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Japaneses), the above-noted phenomena has been consistently observed in all of these languages.},
