Through the use of several machine learning techniques, such as linear models, neural networks, classification and even text mining, a hybrid and complete approach at understanding tourism application users is attained. To assess the advantages of the model, a specific prototype was created, including a complex user modeling process and an advanced and innovative recommender system. The system was tested in the scope of Oporto city, in Portugal. %G English %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01054591/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01054591/file/IFIP-IA_ACM_AMN_v2bw.pdf %L hal-01054591 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01054591 %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-AICT %~ IFIP-AICT-331 %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-TC12 %~ IFIP-AI %~ IFIP-WCC %~ IFIP-2010
