Cold Start Problem

In the last decade, social-based recommender systems have become the best way to resolve a user's cold start problem. In fact, it enriches the user's model by adding additional information provided from his social network. Most of those approaches are based on a collaborative filtering and compute similarities between the users. The authors' preliminary objective in this work is to propose an innovative context aware metric between users (called contextual influencer user). These new similarities are called C-COS, C-PCC and C-MSD, where C refers to the category. The contextual influencer user model is integrated into a social based recommendation system. The category of the items is considered as the most pertinent context element. The authors' proposal is implemented and tested within the food dataset. The experimentation proved that the contextual influencer user measure achieves 0.873, 0.874, and 0.882 in terms of Mean Absolute Error (MAE) corresponding to C-cos, C-pcc and C-msd, respectively. The experimental results showed that their model outperforms several existing methods.

Cold Start Problem

With the advancement of technology there are millions of songs available on the internet and this creates problem for a person to choose from this vast pool of songs. So, there should be some middleman who must do this task on behalf of user and present most relevant songs that perfectly fits the user’s taste. This task is done by recommendation system. Music recommendation system predicts the user liking towards a particular song based on the listening history and profile. Most of the music recommendation system available today will give most recently played song or songs which have overall highest rating as suggestions to users but these suggestions are not personalized. The paper purposes how the recommendation systems can be used to give personalized suggestions to each and every user with the help of collaborative filtering which uses user similarity to give suggestions. The paper aims at implementing this idea and solving the cold start problem using content based filtering at the start.

Cold Start Problem

Recommendation System is able to help users to choose items, including movies, that match their interests. One of the problems faced by recommendation system is cold-start problem. Cold start problem can be categorized into three types, they are: recommending existed item for new user, recommending new item for existed user, and recommending new item for new user. Pairwise preference regression is a method that directly deals with cold-start problem. This method can suggest a recommendation, not only for users who have no historical rating, but also for those who only have less demographic info. From the experiment result, the best score of Normalized Discounted Cumulative Gain (nDGC) from the system is 0.8484. The standard deviation of rating resulted by the recommendation system is 1.24, the average is 3.82. Consequently, the distribution of recommendation result is around rating 5 to 3. Those results mean that this recommendation system is good to solving cold-start problem in movie recommendation system.

Cold Start Problem

Preferring accuracy over computation time or vice versa is very challenging in the context of recommendation systems, which encourages many researchers to opt for hybrid recommendation systems. Currently, researchers are trying hard to produce correct and accurate recommendations by suggesting the use of ontology, but the lack of techniques renders to take its full advantage. One of the major issues in recommender systems bothering many researchers is pure new user cold-start problem which arises due to the absence of information in the system about the new user. Linked Open Data (LOD) initiative sets standards for interoperability among cross domains and has gathered enormous amount of data over the past years, which provides various ways by which recommender system’s performance can be improved by enriching user’s profile with relevant features. This research work focuses on solving pure new user cold-start problem by building user’s profile based on LOD, collaborative features, and social network-based features. Here, a new approach is devised to compute item similarity based on ontology, thus predicting the rating of nonrated item. A modified method to calculate user’s similarity based on collaborative features to deal with other issues such as accuracy and computation time is also proposed. The empirical results and comparative analysis of the proposed hybrid recommendation system dictate its better performance specifically for providing solution to pure new user cold-start problem.
