Increasing the Chance of Interest Learning in the User-Aware Information Distribution System Using a Smart Watch

Abstract

In order to solve information overload in news information on the Internet, smartphone applications that provide news suitable for personal interests have been developed in previous research. However, if the user does not use the application, even if interesting news is distributed, since the news is not browsed, a loss of opportunity to learn the user's interest in the application has occurred. In this research, in order to prevent the loss of learning opportunities, we proposed an information distribution application that facilitates startup and browsing using smart watch. As a result of evaluation, no increase in the number of times of learnings was seen by using smart watch with this application. The cause is that the information displayed on the smart watch with a small screen size does not satisfy the amount of information desired by the user. Devices to provide users with saved information are required.
