Abstract

In this paper, we describe an enhanced IPTV personalization system. It uses the attribute of the viewers instead of relying on only the hardware identifier number of the set-top box. It also does not require the user to do a login and using the identity provided in the login information which exactly identifies the user but does not provide information of the other viewers who are with him. Architecture of the system is proposed with an addition of the lighting normalization module which is shown to improve the attribute recognition performance in the case of lighting variation which is common when watching TV at home.
