Personalized information systems represent the recent effort of delivering information to users more effectively in the modern electronic age. This paper illustrates how a supervised Adaptive Resonance Theory (ART) system, known as fuzzy ARAM, can be used to learn user profiles for personalized information dissemination. ARAM learning is on-line, fast, and incremental. Acquisition of new knowledge does not require re-training on previously learned cases. ARAM integrates both user-defined and system-learned knowledge in a single framework. Therefore inconsistency between the two knowledge sources will not arise. ARAM has been used to develop a personalized news system known as PIN. Preliminary experiments have verified that PIN is able to provide personalized news by adapting to user's interests in an on-line manner and generalizing to new information on-the-fly.
