On Implicitly Discovered OLAP Schema-Specific Preferences in Reporting Tool

On Implicitly Discovered OLAP Schema-Specific Preferences in Reporting Tool We propose content-based methods for construction of recommendations for reports in the OLAP reporting tool. Recommendations are generated based on preference information in user profile, which is updated implicitly by collecting and analyzing user activity in the reporting tool. Taking advantage of data about user preferences for data warehouse schema elements, existing reports that potentially may be interesting to the user are distinguished and recommended. The approach used for recommending reports is composed of two methods - cold-start and hot-start.
