Description
Summary:Recommendation techniques in scientific paper recommender systems (SPRS) have been generally evaluated in an offline setting, without much user involvement. Nonetheless, user relevance of recommended papers is equally important as system relevance. In this paper, we present a scientific paper recommender system (SPRS) prototype which was subject to both offline and user evaluations. The lessons learnt from the evaluation studies are described. In addition, the challenges and open questions for multi-method evaluation in SPRS are presented.
