Recommendation algorithms suffer the quality from the huge and sparse dataset. Memory-based collaborative filtering method has addressed the problem of sparsity by predicting unrated values. However, this method increases the computational complexity, sparsity and expensive complexity of computation are trade-off. In this paper, we propose a novel personalized filtering (PF) recommendation algorithm based on collaborative tagging, which weights the feature of tags that show latent personal interests and constructs a top-N tags set to filter out the undersized and dense dataset. The PF recommendation algorithm can track the changes of personal interests, which is an untilled field for previous studies. The results of empirical experiments show that the sparsity level of PF recommendation algorithm is much lower, and it is more computationally economic than previous algorithms.

Recommendation systems are used when searching online databases. As such they are very important tools because they provide users with predictions of the outcomes of different potential choices and help users to avoid information overload. They can be used on e-commerce websites and have attracted considerable attention in the scientific community. To date, many personalized recommendation algorithms have aimed to improve recommendation accuracy from the perspective of vertex similarities, such as collaborative filtering and mass diffusion. However, diversity is also an important evaluation index in the recommendation algorithm. In order to study both the accuracy and diversity of a recommendation algorithm at the same time, this study introduced a “third dimension” to the commonly used user/product two-dimensional recommendation, and a recommendation algorithm is proposed that is based on a triangular area (TR algorithm). The proposed algorithm combines the Markov chain and collaborative filtering method to make recommendations for users by building a triangle model, making use of the triangulated area. Additionally, recommendation algorithms based on a triangulated area are parameter-free and are more suitable for applications in real environments. Furthermore, the experimental results showed that the TR algorithm had better performance on diversity and novelty for real datasets of MovieLens-100K and MovieLens-1M than did the other benchmark methods.

Tags generated in collaborative tagging systems (CTSs) may help users describe, categorize, search, discover, and navigate content, whereas the difficulty is how to go beyond the information explosion and obtain experts and the required information quickly and accurately. This paper proposes an expert detection and recommendation (EDAR) model based on semantics of tags; the framework consists of community detection and EDAR. Specifically, this paper firstly mines communities based on an improved agglomerative hierarchical clustering (I-AHC) to cluster tags and then presents a community expert detection (CED) algorithm for identifying community experts, and finally, an expert recommendation algorithm is proposed based the improved collaborative filtering (CF) algorithm to recommend relevant experts for the target user. Experiments are carried out on real world datasets, and the results from data experiments and user evaluations have shown that the proposed model can provide excellent performance compared to the benchmark method.

Recommender systems are becoming a popular and important set of personalization techniques that assist individual users with navigating through the rapidly growing amount of information. A good recommender system should be able to not only find out the objects preferred by users, but also help users in discovering their personalized tastes. The former corresponds to high accuracy of the recommendation, while the latter to high diversity. A big challenge is to design an algorithm that provides both highly accurate and diverse recommendation. Traditional recommendation algorithms only take into account the contributions of similar users, thus, they tend to recommend popular items for users ignoring the diversity of recommendations. In this paper, we propose a recommendation algorithm by considering both the effects of similar and dissimilar users under the framework of collaborative filtering. Extensive analyses on three datasets, namely MovieLens, Netflix and Amazon, show that our method performs much better than the standard collaborative filtering algorithm for both accuracy and diversity.

Based on the understanding and comparison of various main recommendation algorithms, this paper focuses on the collaborative filtering algorithm and proposes a collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm with improved user model. Firstly, the algorithm considers the score difference caused by different user scoring habits when expressing preferences and adopts the decoupling normalization method to normalize the user scoring data; secondly, considering the forgetting shift of user interest with time, the forgetting function is used to simulate the forgetting law of score, and the weight of time forgetting is introduced into user score to improve the accuracy of recommendation; finally, the similarity calculation is improved when calculating the nearest neighbor set. Based on the Pearson similarity calculation, the effective weight factor is introduced to obtain a more accurate and reliable nearest neighbor set. The algorithm establishes an offline user model, which makes the algorithm have better recommendation efficiency. Two groups of experiments were designed based on the mean absolute error (MAE). One group of experiments tested the parameters in the algorithm, and the other group of experiments compared the proposed algorithm with other algorithms. The experimental results show that the proposed method has better performance in recommendation accuracy and recommendation efficiency.

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

The purpose of recommendation systems is to help users find effective information quickly and conveniently and also to present the items that users are interested in. While the literature of recommendation algorithms is vast, most collaborative filtering recommendation approaches attain low recommendation accuracies and are also unable to track temporal changes of preferences. Additionally, previous differential clustering evolution processes relied on a single-layer network and used a single scalar quantity to characterise the status values of users and items. To address these limitations, this paper proposes an effective collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm based on a double-layer network. This algorithm is capable of fully exploring dynamical changes of user preference over time and integrates the user and item layers via an attention mechanism to build a double-layer network model. Experiments on Movielens, CiaoDVD, and Filmtrust datasets verify the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm. Experimental results show that our proposed algorithm can attain a better performance than other state-of-the-art algorithms.

To accurately predict the click-through rate (CTR) and use it for ad recommendation, we propose a deep attention AD popularity prediction model (DAFCT) based on label recommendation technology and collaborative filtering method, which integrates content features and temporal information. First, we construct an Attention-LSTM model to capture the popularity trends and exploit the temporal information based on users’ feedback; finally, we use the concatenate method to fuse temporal information and content features and design a Deep Attention Popularity Prediction (DAVPP) algorithm to solve DAFCT. We experimentally adjust the weighted composite similarity metric parameters of Query pages and verify the scalability of the algorithm. Experimental results on the KDDCUP2012 dataset show that this model collaborative filtering and recommendation algorithm has better scalability and better recommendation quality. Compared with the Attention-LSTM model and the NFM model, the F1 score of DAFCT is improved by 9.80 and 3.07 percentage points, respectively.

Aiming at data sparsity and timeliness in traditional E-commerce collaborative filtering recommendation algorithms, when constructing user-item rating matrix, this paper utilizes the feature that commodities in E-commerce system belong to different levels to fill in nonrated items by calculating RF/IRF of the commodity’s corresponding level. In the recommendation prediction stage, considering timeliness of the recommendation system, time weighted based recommendation prediction formula is adopted to design a personalized recommendation model by integrating level filling method and rating time. The experimental results on real dataset verify the feasibility and validity of the algorithm and it owns higher predicting accuracy compared with present recommendation algorithms.

The major challenge of recommendation system (RS) based on implict feedback is to accurately model users’ preferences from their historical feedback. Nowadays, researchers has tried to apply adversarial technique in RS, which had presented successful results in various domains. To a certain extent, the use of adversarial technique improves the modeling of users’ preferences. Nonetheless, there are still many problems to be solved, such as insufficient representation and low-level interaction. In this paper, we propose a recommendation algorithm NCGAN which combines neural collaborative filtering and generative adversarial network (GAN). We use the neural networks to extract users’ non-linear characteristics. At the same time, we integrate the GAN framework to guide the recommendation model training. Among them, the generator aims to make user recommendations and the discriminator is equivalent to a measurement tool which could measure the distance between the generated distribution and users’ ground distribution. Through comparison with other existing recommendation algorithms, our algorithm show better experimental performance in all indicators.

This chapter addresses the issue of how to effectively use users' historical data in restaurant recommender systems, as opposed to systems, such as FindMe, that only rely on online operations. Towards that end, the authors propose a bias-based SVD method as the underlying recommendation algorithm and test it against the traditional item-based collaborative filtering method on the Entrée restaurant dataset. The results are promising as the obtained root-mean-square-error (RMSE) values reach 0.58 for the SVD and 0.62 for the item-based system. Researchers can extend the transformation from user behaviors to ratings in more application domains other than the restaurant one.
