ABSTRACT
Other than private broadcasters, publicly financed broadcasters have to fulfil a public service remit. Individual playouts in public radio, therefore, consist not only of recommender content but also of 'anti-recommender content" that matches public interests. Such anti-recommender content in individual playouts may be unexpected for users and may need explanation. To find out what explanations might look like in public radio, we elicit the requirements of the public service remit for an example country. Based on these requirements, we propose an approach for designing explanations of recommendations that align with the public service remit.

An Approach to Explanations for Public Radio Recommendations
UMAP '20 Adjunct: Adjunct Publication of the 28th ACM Conference on User Modeling, Adaptation and PersonalizationExplanations are a key concept of public-service remits. For their linear program, public broadcasters regularly report on how they reflect diversity and balance in their program. For personalized public media, however, explanations must be different, ...
Compliance of Personalized Radio with Public-Service Remits
UMAP '18: Adjunct Publication of the 26th Conference on User Modeling, Adaptation and PersonalizationPublic radio broadcasters do not consider personalization in their compliance with their public-service remit so far. However, personalization brings along the risk of filter bubbles, which contradicts with the ideas of the public-service remit. We shed ...
