TY - JOUR A1 - Ende, Bartholomäus A1 - Brause, Rüdiger W. T1 - Mutual information based clustering of market basket data for profiling users T2 - Postprint, zuerst in: in: IEEE 19th Int. Conf on Tools with Art. Intell. ICTAI-2007, Patras 2007, IEEE Press 2007 N2 - Attraction and commercial success of web sites depend heavily on the additional values visitors may find. Here, individual, automatically obtained and maintained user profiles are the key for user satisfaction. This contribution shows for the example of a cooking information site how user profiles might be obtained using category information provided by cooking recipes. It is shown that metrical distance functions and standard clustering procedures lead to erroneous results. Instead, we propose a new mutual information based clustering approach and outline its implications for the example of user profiling.
