Abstract

Nowadays, Location-Based Social Networks (LBSNs) have become an important tool to help people explore new places -- a.k.a., points of interest (POIs). In this sense, this work: (1) performs a systematic mapping of the most recent approaches applied in LBSN; (2) presents a solution to the traditional accuracy-diversity trade-off of any recommender; and (3) provides such a solution through a reproducible package that also includes all the systematic mapping tools and several models of recommendation of POIs. Our solution is named DisCovER and it becomes a new benchmark for the scenario as it outperforms all state-of-the-art methods.
