Thesis Overview

The project "Developing an AI-powered Music Recommendation System for Personalized Listening Experiences" aims to leverage artificial intelligence (AI) technology to enhance the music listening experience for users. With the increasing availability of digital music platforms and vast music libraries, users often struggle to discover new music that aligns with their preferences. Traditional recommendation systems often fall short in providing personalized suggestions that cater to individual tastes and preferences. Therefore, the development of an AI-powered music recommendation system holds significant promise in addressing this challenge. The research will focus on designing and implementing an AI-driven recommendation system that utilizes machine learning algorithms to analyze user preferences, behaviors, and feedback. By incorporating advanced data processing techniques, the system will learn from user interactions and continuously improve its recommendations to provide a tailored music listening experience. The project will explore various AI algorithms, such as collaborative filtering, content-based filtering, and deep learning models, to enhance the accuracy and relevance of music recommendations. Furthermore, the research will investigate the user experience aspects of the AI-powered music recommendation system, considering factors such as usability, transparency, and user control. The aim is to create a system that not only delivers personalized music suggestions but also empowers users to understand the recommendation process and provide feedback to refine their preferences. The project will also address the ethical considerations surrounding AI-driven recommendation systems, particularly in terms of data privacy, algorithmic bias, and transparency. By adopting a user-centric design approach and integrating ethical principles into the system development process, the research seeks to build a trustworthy and responsible music recommendation platform. Overall, the project "Developing an AI-powered Music Recommendation System for Personalized Listening Experiences" represents a significant step towards enhancing the music discovery process for users. By harnessing the power of AI technology and prioritizing user-centric design principles, the research aims to deliver a sophisticated recommendation system that caters to individual preferences, promotes music exploration, and enriches the overall listening experience.
