Recommendation systems exist to help users discover content in a large body of items. [...] Key Method Using a collection of novel algorithms inspired by principles of "serendipitous discovery", we demonstrate a method of successfully injecting serendipity, novelty and diversity into recommendations whilst limiting the impact on accuracy. We evaluate Auralist quantitatively over a broad set of metrics and, with a user study on music recommendation, show that Auralist's emphasis on serendipity indeed improves…Expand
