Intelligent human-device interfaces play key roles in fully automated vehicles (FAVs), ensuring smooth interactions and improving the driving experience. Listening to news is a popular method of relaxing during a journey; as a result, travelers require automatic recommendations of preferred news programs. Most existing news recommender systems usually learn topic-level representations of users and news for recommendations while neglecting to learn more informative aspect-level features, resulting in limited recommendation performance. To bridge this significant gap, we propose a novel Aspect-driven News Recommender System (ANRS) built on aspect-level user preferences and news representation learning. In ANRS, a news aspect-level encoder and a user aspect-level encoder are devised to learn the fine-grained aspect-level representations of users’ preferences and news characteristics respectively. These representations are subsequently fed into a click predictor to predict the probability of a given user clicking on the candidate news item. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superiority of our method over state-of-the-art baseline methods.
