Recommender systems have become an essential part in many applications and websites to address the information overload problem. For example, people read opinions about recommended products before buying them. This action is time-consuming due to the number of opinions available. It is necessary to provide recommender systems with methods that add information about the experiences of other users, along with the presentation of the recommended products. These methods should help users by filtering reviews and presenting the necessary answers to their questions about recommended products. The contribution of this work is the description of a recommender system that recommends products using a collaborative filtering method, and which adds only relevant feedback from other users about recommended products. A prototype of a hotel recommender system was implemented and validated with real users.

AbstractShilling attacks have been a significant vulnerability of collaborative filtering (CF) recommender systems, and trust in CF recommender algorithms has been proven to be helpful for improving the accuracy of system recommendations. As a few studies have been devoted to trust in this area, we explore the benefits of using trust to resist shilling attacks. Rather than simply using user-generated trust values, we propose the genre trust degree, which differ in terms of the genres of items and take both trust value and user credibility into consideration. This paper introduces different types of shilling attack methods in an attempt to study the impact of users’ trust values and behavior features on defending against shilling attacks. Meanwhile, it improves the approach used to calculate user similarities to form a recommendation model based on genre trust degrees. The performance of the genre trust-based recommender system is evaluated on the Ciao dataset. Experimental results demonstrated the superior and comparable genre trust degrees recommended for defending against different types of shilling attacks.

Providing useful information to the users by recommending highly demanded products and services is a fundamental part of the business of many top tier companies. Recommender Systems make use of many sources of information to provide users with accurate predictions and novel recommendations of items. Here we propose, DeepMF, a novel collaborative filtering method that combines the Deep Learning paradigm with Matrix Factorization (MF) to improve the quality of both predictions and recommendations made to the user. Specifically, DeepMF performs successive refinements of a MF model with a layered architecture that uses the acquired knowledge in a layer as input for subsequent layers. Experimental results showed that the quality of both the predictions and recommendations of DeepMF overcome the baselines.

Collaborative filtering (CF) recommenders are vulnerable to shilling attacks designed to affect predictions because of financial reasons. Previous work related to robustness of recommender systems has focused on detecting profiles. Most approaches focus on profile classification but ignore the group attributes among shilling attack profiles. Attack profiles are injected in a short period in order to push or nuke a specific target item. In this paper, we propose a method for detecting suspicious ratings by constructing a time series. We reorganize all ratings on each item sorted by time series. Each time series is examined and suspected rating segments are checked. Then we use techniques we have studied in previous study to detect shilling attacks in these anomaly rating segments using statistical metrics and target item analysis. We show in experiments that our proposed method can be effective and less time consuming at detecting items under attacks in big datasets.

Recommender systems are becoming increasingly popular, and collaborative filtering method is one of the most important technologies in recommender systems. The ability of recommender systems to make correct predictions is fundamentally determined by the quality and fittingness of the collaborative filtering that implements them. It is currently mainly used for business purposes such as product recommendation. Collaborative filtering has two types. One is user based collaborative filtering using the similarity between users to predict and the other is item based collaborative filtering using the similarity between items. Although both of them are successfully applied in wide regions, they suffer from a fundamental problem of data sparsity. This paper gives a personalized collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm combining the item rating similarity and the item classification similarity. This method can alleviate the data sparsity problem in the recommender systems
