Abstract :
The experience of visiting an art museum is more valuable if we are guided properly. We took into consideration the affective aspects of this guidance in order to model and implement a personal affective-and context-aware electronic guide. As the emotional states experienced by the visitors are very different and diverse, we propose considering engagement as an indirect measure of the emotion intensity felt by the visitor. We examine three levels of engagement: unengaged (detached), engage-able, and engaged. The next step is to respond to the different categories of engagement in order to scaffold the visitor to the highest level of engagement that is, for a beginner, the engagement with the artistic part using appropriate recommendation, because our aim is to help the visitors to learn more about the painting and art in a mobile manner.
