Modern ways of living have made the people to depend on internet services for everything. The mounting information from various sources like social media, implicit and explicit information, user's geographical location, and the internet of things had increased the need of a recommender system. From e-governance to e-shopping, a recommender system helps people in finding the needed item or information and also boosts sales in the market of those items. Though many studies elaborate about recommendation systems, challenges in developing the recommendation systems, prevailing issues of recommendation systems and discussions on prediction accuracy are not detailed in any of the earlier works. Therefore, in this article, in order to increase the accuracy of the recommender system, the developmental challenges and issues in constructing recommender systems and for evaluation metrics in prediction accuracy are identified and detailed.

Today the amount of information in the internet growth very rapidly and people need some instruments to find and access appropriate information. One of such tools is called recommendation system. Recommendation systems help to navigate quickly and receive necessary information. Many of us find it difficult to decide which movie to watch and so we decided to make a recommender system for us to better judge which movie we are more likely to love. In this project we are going to use Machine Learning Algorithms to recommend movies to users based on genres and user ratings. Recommendation system attempt to predict the preference or rating that a user would give to an item.

Technological advancements have shaped and reshaped the marketing landscape from time to time. The digital revolution in particular has given rise to a new digital era that has changed this marketing landscape, perhaps permanently. One of the core technologies involved in defining this digital era is the Internet. The Internet has not only empowered the people by creating and disseminating information like never before but also has affected the way we conduct our businesses. Various business usages of the Internet in search engines, email, mobile, and social media have given rise to new ways of conducting marketing activities such as affiliate marketing, display advertisement, email marketing, search marketing, and social media marketing among others. The significance and the relevance of online social media marketing have made this particular digital channel a topical subject of the digital era. The effects of social media have been felt in influencing both seller and buyer behaviors. However, the focus of this chapter is to address two important aspects of consumer behaviors in an online digital social media environment. First, the authors propose a conceptual framework of consumers' social media participation. Second, the chapter discusses how this participation affects consumers' behaviors including their purchases. Finally, the authors present a few econometric challenges associated with modeling consumers' social media participation and quantifying its impact on their behaviors.

Nowadays, people get more useful information from the internet and other technological platforms like social media. Plenty of health-care related information is available in social media where people spend more time in it. The existing methodology doesn’t include location in particular the user similarity based on the attributes. The proposed method specifies the assessment of disease risk by Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm to identify the similarity between the users based on the geographical location and then recommends the health expert to the users. This method also identifies the fake users and validates them. The health-care associated with big-data can be performed effectively in the proposed framework. The experimental output shows that the proposed method is more effective when compared with Collaborative Filtering based Disease Risk Assessment.

Abstract The Internet of Things technology offers convenience and innovation in areas such as smart homes and smart cities. Internet of Things solutions require careful management of devices and the risk mitigation of potential vulnerabilities within cyber-physical systems. The Internet of Things concept, its implementations, and applications are frequently discussed on social media platforms. This article illuminates the public view of the Internet of Things through a content-based analysis of contemporary conversations occurring on the Twitter platform. Tweets can be analyzed with machine learning methods to converge the volume and variety of conversations into predictive and descriptive models. We have reviewed 684,503 tweets collected in a two-week period. Using supervised and unsupervised machine learning methods, we have identified interconnecting relationships between trending themes and the most mentioned industries. We have identified characteristics of language sentiment which can help to predict popularity within the realm of IoT conversation. We found the healthcare industry as the leading use case industry for IoT implementations. This is not surprising as the current Covid-19 pandemic is driving significant social media discussions. There was an alarming dearth of conversations towards cybersecurity. Only 12% of the tweets relating to the Internet of Things contained any mention of topics such as encryption, vulnerabilities, or risk, among other cybersecurity-related terms.
