Human-computer interaction systems have been developed in recent years. These systems use multimedia techniques to create Mixed-Reality environments where users can train themselves. Although most of these systems rely strongly on interactivity with the users, taking into account users' states, they still lack the possibility of considering users preferences when they help them. In this paper, we introduce an Action Support System for Interactive Self-Training (ASSIST) in cooking. ASSIST focuses on recognizing users' cooking actions as well as real objects related to these actions to be able to provide them with accurate and useful assistance. Before the recognition and instruction processes, it takes users' cooking preferences and suggests one or more recipes that are likely to satisfy their preferences by collaborative filtering. When the cooking process starts, ASSIST recognizes users' hands movement using a similarity measure algorithm called AMSS. When the recognized cooking action is correct, ASSIST instructs the user on the next cooking procedure through virtual objects. When a cooking action is incorrect, the cause of its failure is analyzed and ASSIST provides the user with support information according to the cause to improve the user's incorrect cooking action. Furthermore, we construct parallel transition models from cooking recipes for more flexible instructions. This enables users to perform necessary cooking actions in any order they want, allowing more flexible learning.

Collaborative filtering is a popular approach in recommender Systems that helps users in identifying the items they may like in a wagon of items. Finding similarity among users with the available item ratings so as to predict rating(s) for unseen item(s) based on the preferences of likeminded users for the current user is a challenging problem. Traditional measures like Cosine similarity and Pearson correlation’s correlation exhibit some drawbacks in similarity calculation. This paper presents a new similarity measure which improves the performance of Recommender System. Experimental results on MovieLens dataset show that our proposed distance measure improves the quality of prediction. We present clustering results as an extension to validate the effectiveness of our proposed method.

Since the user recommendation complex matrix is characterized by strong sparsity, it is difficult to correctly recommend relevant services for users by using the recommendation method based on location and collaborative filtering. The similarity measure between users is low. This paper proposes a fusion method based on KL divergence and cosine similarity. KL divergence and cosine similarity have advantages by comparing three similar metrics at different K values. Using the fusion method of the two, the user’s similarity with the preference is reused. By comparing the location-based collaborative filtering (LCF) algorithm, user-based collaborative filtering (UCF) algorithm, and user recommendation algorithm (F2F), the proposed method has the preparation rate, recall rate, and experimental effect advantage. In different median values, the proposed method also has an advantage in experimental results.
