User profile model: A user dimension based classification

As the amount of information offered by information systems is increasing exponentially, the need of personalized approaches for information access increases. This work discusses user profiles designed for providing personalized information access. We first present a general classification of research directions on adaptive systems, followed by a state-of-the-art study about user profiling. We propose then a new classification approach of user profile model. This classification is based on the user dimensions considered to build the user profile.
