Abstract

The main purpose of this article was to create a model and simulate the profitability conditions of an interactive presentation system (IPS) with the recommender system (RS) used in the kiosk. 90 million simulations have been run in Python with SymPy to address the problem of discount recommendation offered to the clients according to their usage of the IPS.

This research was partially founded by Wroclaw University of Science and Technology and Poznan University of Economics and Business statutory funds, and BiWISS grant agreement no INNOTECHK3/IN3/56/225874/NCBR/15 of European Union Regional Development Fund Third Programme Innotech, IN-TECH.
