Cognitive assessment based recommendations

Abstract:

An approach is provided for generating cognitive assessment based recommendations. Information about a user is collected. A knowledge domain and sub-domain of the user is determined. Knowledge sources for the knowledge domain and sub-domain are determined. Based on an analysis of the collected information by a personality analysis service using natural language processing, personality traits, needs, and values of the user are determined. Based on an analysis of the knowledge sources and the personality traits, needs, and values of the user by a scenario analysis service, the knowledge sources are ranked. Experts in the knowledge domain and sub-domain are identified by scanning a ranked list of first level contacts and second level contacts of the user. Based on the personality traits, needs, and values, the knowledge sources, and the experts, suggestions for an advancement of a career of the user are generated.
