Abstract :
This paper presents a ringtone recommendation agent system which utilizes user´s emotion to recommend an appropriate ringtone and the suitable volume level of a mobile phone. The system uses a Bayesian network (BN) to infer user´s emotion and the volume level at the current situation. After inferring user´s emotion, a ringtone is selected from the pool of various kinds of genres of ringtones. Also, the volume level can be controlled according to the inferred volume level. User´s feedback on the inferred values can be used to retrain the BN to provide the user with a personalized service. Experimental results showed that the proposed system is quite convenient and very useful.
