AbstractIn the context of recommender systems based on collaborative filtering (CF), obtaining accurate neighborhoods of the items of the datasets is relevant. Beyond particular individual recommendations, knowing these neighbors is fundamental for adding differentiating factors to recommendations, such as explainability, detecting shilling attacks, visualizing item relations, clustering, and providing reliabilities. This paper proposes a deep learning architecture to efficiently and accurately obtain CF neighborhoods. The proposed design makes use of a classification neural network to encode the dataset patterns of the items, followed by a generative process that obtains the neighborhood of each item by means of an iterative gradient localization algorithm. Experiments have been conducted using five popular open datasets and five representative baselines. The results show that the proposed method improves the quality of the neighborhoods compared to the K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm for the five selected similarity measure baselines. The efficiency of the proposed method is also shown by comparing its computational requirements with that of KNN.

Abstraction Levels

This paper provides an innovative deep learning architecture to improve collaborative filtering results in recommender systems. It exploits the potential of the reliability concept to raise predictions and recommendations quality by incorporating prediction errors (reliabilities) in the deep learning layers. The underlying idea is to recommend highly predicted items that also have been found as reliable ones. We use the deep learning architecture to extract the existing non-linear relations between predictions, reliabilities, and accurate recommendations. The proposed architecture consists of three related stages, providing three stacked abstraction levels: (a) real prediction errors, (b) predicted errors (reliabilities), and (c) predicted ratings (predictions). In turn, each abstraction level requires a learning process: (a) Matrix Factorization from ratings, (b) Multilayer Neural Network fed with real prediction errors and hidden factors, and (c) Multilayer Neural Network fed with reliabilities and hidden factors. A complete set of experiments has been run involving three representative and open datasets and a state-of-the-art baseline. The results show strong prediction improvements and also important recommendation improvements, particularly for the recall quality measure.

Learning Technique

Recommender systems are one of the important methodologies in machine learning technologies, which is using in current business scenario. This article proposes a book recommender system using deep learning technique and k-Nearest Neighbors (k-NN) classification. Deep learning technique is one of the most effective techniques in the field of recommender systems. Recommender systems are intelligent systems in Machine Learning that can make difference from other algorithms. This article considers application of Machine Learning Technology and we present an approach based a recommender system. We used k-Nearest Neighbors classification algorithm of deep learning technique to classify users based book recommender system. We analyze the traditional collaborative filtering with our methodology and also to compare with them. Our outcomes display the projected algorithm is more precise over the existing algorithm, it also consumes less time and reliable than the existing methods.

Sentiment analysis is an important area that allows knowing public opinion of the users about several aspects. This information helps organizations to know customer satisfaction. Social networks such as Twitter are important information channels because information in real time can be obtained and processed from them. In this sense, we propose a deep-learning-based approach that allows companies and organizations to detect opportunities for improving the quality of their products or services through sentiment analysis. This approach is based on convolutional neural network (CNN) and word2vec. To determine the effectiveness of this approach for classifying tweets, we conducted experiments with different sizes of a Twitter corpus composed of 100000 tweets. We obtained encouraging results with a precision of 88.7%, a recall of 88.7%, and an F-measure of 88.7% considering the complete dataset.

Similarity Calculation

Collaborative filtering is a popular approach in recommender Systems that helps users in identifying the items they may like in a wagon of items. Finding similarity among users with the available item ratings so as to predict rating(s) for unseen item(s) based on the preferences of likeminded users for the current user is a challenging problem. Traditional measures like Cosine similarity and Pearson correlation’s correlation exhibit some drawbacks in similarity calculation. This paper presents a new similarity measure which improves the performance of Recommender System. Experimental results on MovieLens dataset show that our proposed distance measure improves the quality of prediction. We present clustering results as an extension to validate the effectiveness of our proposed method.

User Trust

Recommender systems are techniques designed to produce personalized recommendations. Data sparsity, scalability cold start and quality of prediction are some of the problems faced by a recommender system. Traditional recommender systems consider that all the users are independent and identical, its an assumption which leads to a total ignorance of social interactions and trust among user. Trust relation among users ease the work of recommender systems to produce better quality of recommendations. In this paper, an effective technique is proposed using trust factor extracted with help of ratings given so that quality can be improved and better predictions can be done. A novel-technique has been proposed for recommender system using film-trust dataset and its effectiveness has been justified with the help of experiments.
