The most common problem in the context of recommendation systems is “cold start” problem which occurs when new product is recommended or a new user becomes to the system. A great part of systems do not personalize a user until they gather sufficient information. In this paper a novel method for recommending a profile for a new user based only on knowledge about a few demographic data is proposed. The method merges a content-based approach with collaborative recommendation. The main objective was to show that based on knowledge about other similar users, the system can classify a new user based on subset of demographic data and recommend him a non-empty profile. Using the proposed profile, the user will obtain personalized documents. A methodology of experimental evaluation was presented and simulations were performed. The preliminary experiments have shown that the most important demographic attributes are gender, age, favorite browser and level of education.
