Personalized Cultural Information for Mobile Devices

Abstract

Many systems are available for sightseeing information on mobile devices. The main drawback of such systems is that those systems are incapable of providing information according to users' feelings. In this approach, we have developed a mobile interface which provides sightseeing information according to users' feeling. This system used “thought forms” (concatenation, balance, division, unification, and crisscross) to add a swaying element within the word relationships. Users can interact with the system using their mobile devices and obtain interesting information such as sightseeing information related to cultural heritage sites in Kyoto.
