  • Abstract
    This paper presents the prediction of TV station ratings considering the user´s profile of its audience, received from their settop boxes. It is based on a TV content recommender for groups that uses multidimensional classifications following the TV-Anytime approach. Two applications are presented in order to maximize ratings: an algorithm to configure the TV program schedule of a TV station, and another one that decides in real time between a set of contents which one a TV station should broadcast in a certain moment to increase the audience.
