This article describes a preliminary study on considering information about the target user's personality in music recommender systems (MRSs). For this purpose, we devised and implemented four MRSs and evaluated them on a sample of real users and real-world datasets. Experimental results show that MRSs that rely on purely users' personality information are able to provide performance comparable with those of a state-of-the-art MRS, even better in terms of the diversity of the suggested items.

Abstract
This article describes a preliminary study on considering information about the target user's personality in music recommender systems (MRSs). For this purpose, we devised and implemented four MRSs and evaluated them on a sample of real users and real-world datasets. Experimental results show that MRSs that rely on purely users' personality information are able to provide performance comparable with those of a state-of-the-art MRS, even better in terms of the diversity of the suggested items.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
