CAPRI: Context-Aware Interpretable Point-of-Interest Recommendation Framework
Point-of-Interest (POI ) recommendation systems have gained popularity for their unique ability to suggest geographical destinations with the incorporation of contextual information such as time, location, and user-item interaction. Existing recommendation frameworks lack the contextual fusion required for POI systems. This paper presents CAPRI, a novel POI recommendation framework that effectively integrates context-aware models, such as GeoSoCa, LORE, and USG, and introduces a novel strategy for the efficient merging of contextual information. CAPRI integrates an evaluation module that expands the evaluation scope beyond accuracy to include novelty, personalization, diversity, and fairness. With an aim to establish a new industry standard for reproducible results in the realm of POI recommendation systems, we have made CAPRI openly accessible on GitHub, facilitating easy access and contribution to the continued development and refinement of this innovative framework.
