Event Recommendation in Social Networks with Linked Data Enablement
نویسندگان
چکیده
In recent years, social networking services have gained phenomenal popularity. They allow us to explore the world and share our findings in a convenient way. Event is a critical component in social networks. A user can create, share or join different events in their social circle. In this paper, we investigate the problem of event recommendation. We propose recommendation methods based on the similarity of an event’s content and a user’s interests in terms of topics. Specifically, we use Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) to generate a topic distribution over each event and user. We also consider friend relationship and attendance history to increase recommendation accuracy. Moreover, we enable linked data as our data sources to collect contextual information related to events and users, and build an enhanced profile for them. As reliable resource, linked data is used to find structured knowledge and linkages among different knowledge. Finally, we conduct comprehensive experiments on various datasets in both academic community and popular social networking

Online Event Recommendation for Event-based Social Networks
With the rapid growth of event-based social networks, the demand of event recommendation becomes increasingly important. While, the existing event recommendation approaches are batch learning fashion. Such approaches are impractical for real-world recommender systems where training data often arrive sequentially. Hence, we present an online event recommendation method. Experimental results on s...
متن کاملCombining Heterogenous Social and Geographical Information for Event Recommendation
With the rapid growth of event-based social networks (EBSNs) like Meetup, the demand for event recommendation becomes increasingly urgent. In EBSNs, event recommendation plays a central role in recommending the most relevant events to users who are likely to participate in. Different from traditional recommendation problems, event recommendation encounters three new types of information, i.e., ...
متن کاملMining Overlapping Communities in Real-world Networks Based on Extended Modularity Gain
Detecting communities plays a vital role in studying group level patterns of a social network and it can be helpful in developing several recommendation systems such as movie recommendation, book recommendation, friend recommendation and so on. Most of the community detection algorithms can detect disjoint communities only, but in the real time scenario, a node can be a member of more than one ...
متن کاملEvent Recommendation in Event-based Social Networks
With the large number of events published all the time in event-based social networks (EBSN), it has become increasingly difficult for users to find the events that best match their preferences. Recommender systems appear as a natural solution to this problem. However, the event recommendation scenario is quite different from typical recommendation domains (e.g. movies), since there is an intri...
متن کاملA Review of Spatial Factor Modeling Techniques in Recommending Point of Interest Using Location-based Social Network Information
The rapid growth of mobile phone technology and its combination with various technologies like GPS has added location context to social networks and has led to the formation of location-based social networks. In social networking sites, recommender systems are used to recommend points of interest (POIs) to users. Traditional recommender systems, such as film and book recommendations, have a lon...
