Abstract: A significant problem in many information filtering systems is the dependence on the user for the creation and maintenance of a user profile, which describes the user's interests. NewsWeeder is a netnews-filtering system that addresses this problem by letting the user rate his or her interest level for each article being read (1-5), and then learning a user profile based on these ratings. This paper describes how NewsWeeder accomplishes this task, and examines the alternative learning methods... (Update)
