Abstract
A user profile and/or the suggestions computed based thereon are obtained taking a special set of user features into account. The user features are defined to represent a typical general behaviour of an individual user in respect to the application where the user profile is used. In other words, for each application where a user profile is used a special set of user features are defined which are able to represent a typical general behaviour of an individual user. Based on these user features the weights in the list of word-weight pairs or weighted keywords which represents the user profile are computed or influenced during the creation of the user profile, and/or a multi-user profile is split during the creation of an individual user profile from a multi-user profile, and/or during specification of a suggestion a user history which is used to create the user profile, and/or the user profile, and/or the suggestion results are filtered.

33. Method to specify a suggestion for a next selection of a user, which suggestion is determined on basis of suggestion results which are computed of future program descriptions and a user profile, characterized by the step of filtering
a user history which is used to create the user profile, and/or the user profile, and/or the suggestion results based on an actual situation of the user represented on basis of user features that represent a typical general behaviour of an individual user in respect to the application where the user profile is used.
