A User Group Clustering Approach in Tagging Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we propose a spectral clustering approach for users and documents group modeling in order to capture the common preference and relatedness of users and documents, and to reduce the time complexity of similarity calculations. In experiments, we investigate the selection of the optimal amount of clusters. We also show a reduction of the time consuming in calculating the similarity for the recommender systems by selecting a centroid first, and then compare the inside item on behalf of each group. keywords: User Profile, Document Profile, Spectral Clustering, Group Profile, Modularity Metric

Improving the performance of recommender systems in the face of the cold start problem by analyzing user behavior on social network
The goal of recommender system is to provide desired items for users. One of the main challenges affecting the performance of recommendation systems is the cold-start problem that is occurred as a result of lack of information about a user/item. In this article, first we will present an approach, uses social streams such as Twitter to create a behavioral profile, then user profiles are clusteri...
متن کاملUse of Semantic Similarity and Web Usage Mining to Alleviate the Drawbacks of User-Based Collaborative Filtering Recommender Systems
One of the most famous methods for recommendation is user-based Collaborative Filtering (CF). This system compares active user’s items rating with historical rating records of other users to find similar users and recommending items which seems interesting to these similar users and have not been rated by the active user. As a way of computing recommendations, the ultimate goal of the user-ba...
متن کاملMerging Similarity and Trust Based Social Networks to Enhance the Accuracy of Trust-Aware Recommender Systems
In recent years, collaborative filtering (CF) methods are important and widely accepted techniques are available for recommender systems. One of these techniques is user based that produces useful recommendations based on the similarity by the ratings of likeminded users. However, these systems suffer from several inherent shortcomings such as data sparsity and cold start problems. With the dev...
متن کاملEvolutionary User Clustering Based on Time-Aware Interest Changes in the Recommender System
The plenty of data on the Internet has created problems for users and has caused confusion in finding the proper information. Also, users' tastes and preferences change over time. Recommender systems can help users find useful information. Due to changing interests, systems must be able to evolve. In order to solve this problem, users are clustered that determine the most desirable users, it pa...
متن کاملIncreasing the Accuracy of Recommender Systems Using the Combination of K-Means and Differential Evolution Algorithms
Recommender systems are the systems that try to make recommendations to each user based on performance, personal tastes, user behaviors, and the context that match their personal preferences and help them in the decision-making process. One of the most important subjects regarding these systems is to increase the system accuracy which means how much the recommendations are close to the user int...
