probabilistic model for the interfaces personalized creation
User interfaces are designed taking in account different user needs (preferences, abilities, etc.) and various prototypes and usability tests are carried out during their development. However, when they are used by their final users, it can be seen that the interfaces do not meet the users requirements or, more usually, it is evident that the UI can be improved. This paper presents a system that helps to personalize a user interface for an art digital library. The system has different predefined interfaces according to end-user characteristics, but the users can tailor the final appearance of the information to be showed by the system. From these different adaptations, tailored by users, the system tries to find similarities that can result in a modification of the default interface that is presented to new users of the system. The new interface could be distinct from the one constructed by the original interface designer.
