Improving the Mobile Phone Habitat - Learning Changes in Users Profiles

Abstract

Mobile phones are becoming a popular platform for a range of applications. However, due to size restrictions, the interfaces of these applications can be difficult to use. Customising an interface for a particular user offers the potential to improve an interface's efficiency. In this paper, we propose customising a mobile phone's Profile application. We apply a machine learning approach to discover concepts that describe a user's profile-activations in terms of their scheduled appointments. We found that it is possible to learn useful concepts, which maybe used to improve the users interaction with mobile phone devices. Show more
