Abstract
A content recommendation system based on human brain activity has become a reality. However, the cost of collecting the information from people is problematic. This article proposes a scheme that resolves the tradeoff between the inference performance from a profile model to a brain model and the cost of collecting profile information. In the proposed scheme, a machine learning model infers the brain model from the profile model and a feature selection method is applied to reduce the cost, i.e., the number of questionnaire items, of collecting profile information. Since only the top questionnaire items with the highest importance scores are used, we can maintain the inference performance as high as possible while limiting the number of questionnaire items. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme with a performance evaluation using an experimentally obtained brain model and a profile model created from real profile information. The results over different experimental parameters, video lengths, and feature selection methods demonstrate that the proposed scheme successfully identifies the top questionnaire items that contribute most significantly to the inference of brain models.
