Abstract

Peer-level annotation stands for the enrichment of content by any user, who acts as author, being able to make annotations, using, for instance, handwriting or speech recognition capabilities. This type of annotation makes users comfortable when taking digital notes, as they do in every day life. This is an advantage over hierarchical authoring, which is a time-consuming task usually employed by content providers. This paper proposes a content-based recommender architecture which explores information that is available at the time users enhance content. This feature enables our architecture to reach a certain level of semantic information from the content and from user's preferences, which is essential for recommender systems applications.
