Interest level estimation based on matrix completion via rank minimization

This paper presents a novel method for interest level estimation based on matrix completion via rank minimization. The proposed method estimates interest levels of target objects from human behavior features which are extracted during selecting these objects. Specifically, by adopting matrix completion via rank minimization, unknown interest levels can be estimated. Furthermore, the proposed method can also estimate unknown interest levels with some missing behavior features which are not correctly extracted by sensors. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
