THE FILM AGENT: SYNTHESIZING A PERSONALISED TELVISION PROGRAMME
In recent years, the rapid growth in the availability of digital
entertainment content through diverse distribution channels has
motivated academic and industrial research in the area of personalised
filtering and recommendation technology. Philips' Film Agent is a
prototype of recommendation system in the domain of movies, for use
in the home on domestic consumer electronic equipment.
The Film Agent synthesizes a personalised TV review programme.
It explains its recommendations by specific reference to a user's
viewing history, and exploits the conventions of television programme
production to present multimedia information which it gathers from
various remote internet resources. The design of the system takes
into consideration its anticipated domestic context of use, the
likely capabilities of near-future consumer-level platforms, and
insights from the academic community about believable agents.
In this talk, I shall describe the architecture and components of
the system, and discuss the motivations for the design choices it
embodies. I shall also show a short (offline) demonstration of the
Film Agent in action.
