Towards automating the construction of recommender systems for low-code development platforms

Abstract:

Low-code development platforms allow users with a low technical background to build complete software solutions, typically by means of graphical user interfaces, diagrams or declarative languages. In these platforms, recommender systems play an important role as they can provide users with relevant, personalised suggestions generated according to previously developed software solutions. However, developing recommender systems requires a high investment of time as it implies the selection and implementation of a suitable recommendation method, its configuration for the problem and domain at hand, and its evaluation to assess the accuracy of its recommendations. To alleviate these problems, in this paper, we present the first steps towards a generic model-driven framework capable of generating ad-hoc, task-oriented recommender systems for their integration on low-code platforms. As a proof of concept, we present some preliminary results obtained from an offline evaluation of our framework on three datasets of class diagrams. The results show that the proposed framework is capable of providing relevant recommendations in the given context.
