This document summarizes a research paper on a chat-based group recommender system for tourism called STSGroup. The system allows groups of users to discuss potential tourism activities together through a chat interface. It uses the preferences revealed by users during their discussion to update its understanding of each user's preferences and make recommendations. An evaluation with real users found the system scored well on usability and recommendation quality measures and users were generally satisfied with the choices it suggested. The researchers plan to further test the recommendation algorithm using simulated data and improve the system usability.
