Abstract:     
Personalization and recommendation systems require knowledge about the users (user profiles), in order to be able to target products, promotions and advertisements. The faster the profiles are learnt, the sooner the site can start benefiting from these systems. We study how a site can learn the profile of a user as quickly as possible as the user traverses the site.
