Abstract

Today, users leave a plethora of traces on the Web. They fill traditional profile information at social networking services, write articles in their personal blogs or annotate social media content in resource sharing systems such as Flickr or Delicious. In this paper we present the so-called Mypes service that connects, aggregates, aligns and enriches profile information form diverse online services and makes the bundled profiles available for end-users and third-party applications. It enables end-users to overview their distributed profile data traces and provides application developers means for integrating aggregated profile data into their applications to feature personalization. Our evaluation reveals the benefits of Mypes: it generates semantically rich user profiles with high precision.
