This work discusses user profiles designed for providing personalized information access. We first present a general classification of research directions on adaptive systems, followed by a state-of-the-art study about user profiling. We propose then a new classification approach of user profile model. This classification is based on the user dimensions considered to build the user profile.}, isbn = {978-1-5090-0220-7}, author = {Ouaftouh, Sara and Zellou, Ahmed and Idri, Ali} }
