Relevant, Fair, Surprising - On the Evaluation of Recommender Systems

Recommender systems are becoming an essential part of more and more products, and they shape the experience users have when exploring all kinds of digital content from music to social media posts and foods to order. In this talk we explore the metrics and design behind the evaluation of these systems and how they can be tweaked to cater to the different people impacted by these services.
