Personalized recommendation systems combine the data mining technology with users browse profile and provide recommendation set to user forecasted by their interests. Collaborative filtering algorithm is one of the most successful methods for building personalized recommendation system, and is extensively used in many fields to date. With the development of E-commerce, the magnitudes of users and items grow rapidly, resulting in the extreme sparsity of user rating data. Traditional similarity measure methods work poor in this situation, make the quality of recommendation system decreased dramatically. To alleviate the problem, an enhanced Pearson correlation similarity measure method is introduced in the personalized collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm. The approach considers the common correlation rating of users. The recommendation using the enhanced similarity measure can improve the neighbors influence in the course of recommendation and enhance the accuracy and the quality of recommendation systems effectively.

The collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm based on user is becoming the more personalized recommendation algorithm. But when the user evaluation for goods is very small and the user didnt evaluate the item, the commodity recommendation based on the item evaluation of user may not be accurate, and this is the sparseness in the collaborative filtering algorithm based on user. In order to solve this problem, this paper presents a collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm based on user and item. The experimental results show that this method has smaller MAE and greatly improve the quality of the recommendation in the recommendation system.

As the importance of providing personalized services increases, various studies on personalized recommendation systems are actively being conducted. Among the many methods used for recommendation systems, the most widely used is collaborative filtering. However, this method has lower accuracy because recommendations are limited to using quantitative information, such as user ratings or amount of use. To address this issue, many studies have been conducted to improve the accuracy of the recommendation system by using other types of information, in addition to quantitative information. Although conducting sentiment analysis using reviews is popular, previous studies show the limitation that results of sentiment analysis cannot be directly reflected in recommendation systems. Therefore, this study aims to quantify the sentiments presented in the reviews and reflect the results to the ratings; that is, this study proposes a new algorithm that quantifies the sentiments of user-written reviews and converts them into quantitative information, which can be directly reflected in recommendation systems. To achieve this, the user reviews, which are qualitative information, must first be quantified. Thus, in this study, sentiment scores are calculated through sentiment analysis by using a text mining technique. The data used herein are from movie reviews. A domain-specific sentiment dictionary was constructed, and then based on the dictionary, sentiment scores of the reviews were calculated. The collaborative filtering of this study, which reflected the sentiment scores of user reviews, was verified to demonstrate its higher accuracy than the collaborative filtering using the traditional method, which reflects only user rating data. To overcome the limitations of the previous studies that examined the sentiments of users based only on user rating data, the method proposed in this study successfully enhanced the accuracy of the recommendation system by precisely reflecting user opinions through quantified user reviews. Based on the findings of this study, the recommendation system accuracy is expected to improve further if additional analysis can be performed.

Presently recommendation systems have gradually become an important part in E-Commerce, more and more research papers about recommendation systems in E-Commerce appeared in many kinds of conferences and journals. With expanding of E-Commerce it also faces series of challenges. Traditional collaborative filtering recommendation technique is hard to provide recommendation service for unregistered users. To overcome this problem, we suggested a framework of recommendation system based on web mining. It is made up of two parts, offline and online. This method first clustered web usage data, web content data and web structure data respectively, then provided high-quality recommendation services based on mining results. Compared with traditional collaborative filtering techniques, recommendation systems based on web mining are convenient for users because user need not to provide user-rating data explicitly. In end of this paper, accuracy of recommendation system based on web mining was tested and compared with traditional collaborative filtering recommendation system. Testing results showed that, quality of recommendation system based on web mining is better than quality of traditional collaborative filtering recommendation system.

This paper provides a new approach that improves collaborative filtering results in recommendation systems. In particular, we aim to ensure the reliability of the data set collected which is to collect the cognition about the item similarity from the users. Hence, in this work, we collect the cognitive similarity of the user about similar movies. Besides, we introduce a three-layered architecture that consists of the network between the items (item layer), the network between the cognitive similarity of users (cognition layer) and the network between users occurring in their cognitive similarity (user layer). For instance, the similarity in the cognitive network can be extracted from a similarity measure on the item network. In order to evaluate our method, we conducted experiments in the movie domain. In addition, for better performance evaluation, we use the F-measure that is a combination of two criteria P r e c i s i o n and R e c a l l . Compared with the Pearson Correlation, our method more accurate and achieves improvement over the baseline 11.1% in the best case. The result shows that our method achieved consistent improvement of 1.8% to 3.2% for various neighborhood sizes in MAE calculation, and from 2.0% to 4.1% in RMSE calculation. This indicates that our method improves recommendation performance.

Collaborative Filtering (CF) is one of the most popular techniques used in recommendation systems. User-based CF uses rating data to calculate similarity between users and is effective in traditional recommendation systems. However, it does not work well when applied in tag recommendation systems as there are tags with same semantics which does not match literally. Based on tag concept category, the improvement of traditional CF is achieved by compressing the dataset, analyzing the users preference and extracting the tags objective characteristics. The result of experiment shows the more satisfied accuracy than the traditional one does.

Collaborative filtering (CF) is the most widely used and successful personalized recommendation technology in web usage mining. The traditional collaborative filtering algorithm based on user static evaluation of the item's neighbour to predict changes of the users’ interests, however, the user’s interest will make a difference over time. Taking the dynamic changes the user’s interest into account in the process, this paper presents a dynamic collaborative filtering recommendation method based on improved ant colony algorithm (EACF). Improved ant colony algorithm takes into account the user access time and access frequency, which can be more representative of the true interests of users. When generating the recommendation, this method not only takes into account the item’s score, but also will take into account intensity of “interest pheromone” on each item. Experimental results show that the EACF can significantly improve the prediction accuracy of the recommendation system compared with traditional CF.

Music recommendation systems are playing a vital role in suggesting music to the users from huge volumes of digital libraries available. Collaborative filtering (CF) is a one of the well known method used in recommendation systems. CF is either user centric or item centric. The former is known as user-based CF and later is known as item-based CF. This paper proposes an enhancement to item-based collaborative filtering method by considering correlation among items. Lift and Pearson Correlation coefficient are used to find the correlation among items. Song correlation matrix is constructed by using correlation measures. Proposed method is evaluated on the benchmark dataset and results obtained are compared with basic item-based CF

A recommendation system can recommend items of interest to users. However, due to the scarcity of user rating data and the similarity of single ratings, the accuracy of traditional collaborative filtering algorithms (CF) is limited. Compared with user rating data, the user’s behavior log is easier to obtain and contains a large amount of implicit feedback information, such as the purchase behavior, comparison behavior, and sequences of items (item-sequences). In this paper, we proposed a personalized recommendation algorithm based on a user’s implicit feedback (BUIF). BUIF considers not only the user’s purchase behavior but also the user’s comparison behavior and item-sequences. We extracted the purchase behavior, comparison behavior, and item-sequences from the user’s behavior log; calculated the user’s similarity by purchase behavior and comparison behavior; and extended word-embedding to item-embedding to obtain the item’s similarity. Based on the above method, we built a secondary reordering model to generate the recommendation results for users. The results of the experiment on the JData dataset show that our algorithm shows better improvement in regard to recommendation accuracy over other CF algorithms.
