Content and other resources recommendations for individuals with intellectual disability: a reviewContent and other resources recommendations for individuals with intellectual disability: a review Ανασκόπηση Review 2024-04-112022enIn this review paper, we look into how a recommendation system can be adapted to and support people with intellectual disability (ID). We start by reviewing and comparing the main classes of techniques for general-purpose content recommendation. Then, centering on individuals with ID, we collect information on their special needs that may be relevant to or affected by content recommendation tasks. We review the few existing recommendation systems specifically designed or adapted to the needs of this population and finally, based on the reviewed literature sources, we catalog the traits that a future content recommendation system should have in order to respond well to the identified special needs. We hope this listing of desirable traits and future directions in our concluding sections will stimulate research towards opening the doors to the digital world for individuals with ID.This work was supported by the QuaLiSID—“Quality of Life Support System for People with Intellectual Disability” research project, which is co-financed by the European Union and Greek national funds through the Operational Program Competitiveness, Entrepreneurship and Innovation, under the call RESEARCH–CREATE–INNOVATE (project code: T2EDK-00306).http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Electronics1121Apostolidis_et_al_Electronics_11(21)_2022.pdfChania [Greece]Library of TUC2024-04-11application/pdf1.2 MBfree Apostolidis Konstantinos Mezaris, Vasileios, 19..- Papadogiorgaki Maria Παπαδογιωργακη Μαρια Bei Aikaterini Μπεη Αικατερινη Livanos Georgios Λιβανος Γεωργιος Zervakis Michail Ζερβακης Μιχαηλ MDPI Digital content recommendation Intellectual disability Special needs Recommendation systems Collaborative filtering Content-based filtering Hybrid recommendation systems
