Conversational Recommender Systems Based on Mobile Chatbot for Culinary

Abstract


Culinary places are one of the tourists attractions in a place that makes many new culinary places appear. Various types of new foods and drinks are present along with the addition of culinary places. However, this can be a problem when tourists visit a new destination and look for a culinary place that suits their tastes. In the previous research on the recommendation system for culinary places, users only gave their preferences at the beginning of the recommendation process and ignored the operating hours of the recommended culinary places. Therefore, we developed a recommendation system for culinary places by utilizing the context of time from users. We use the Conversational Recommender System on the chatbot platform with the Personalized PageRank algorithm to generate recommendations. In addition, we also use the explanation facility to get an explanation of the recommended items. We use questionnaires and the accuracy of recommendation results to measure user satisfaction and system performance. The evaluation results with a questionnaire involving 81 respondents concluded that users are pretty satisfied with the system built. However, testing with accuracy yields a value of 40%, proving that the system performance is low
