Trust-aware Decentralized Recommender Systems: PhD research proposal
نویسنده
چکیده
This PhD thesis addresses the following problem: exploiting of trust information in order to enhance the accuracy and the user acceptance of current Recommender Systems (RS). RSs suggest to users items they will probably like. Up to now, current RSs mainly generate recommendations based on users’ opinions on items. Nowadays, with the growth of online communities, emarketplaces, weblogs and peer-to-peer networks, a new kind of information is available: rating expressed by an user on another user (trust). We analyze current RS weaknesses and show how use of trust can overcome them. We proposed a solution about exploiting of trust into RSs and underline what experiments we will run in order to test our solution.

Merging 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...

Recommender systems are a branch of retrieval systems and information matching, which through identifying the interests and requires of the user, help the users achieve the desired information or service through a massive selection of choices. In recent years, the recommender systems apply describing information in the terms of the user, such as location, time, and task, in order to produce re...

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 کاملTrust Aware Recommender Systems: A Survey on Implicit Trust Generation Techniques
Development of Web 2.0 enabled users to share information online, which results into an exponential growth of world wide web data. This leads to the so-called information overload problem. Recommender Systems (RS) are intelligent systems, helping on-line users to overcome information overload by providing customized recommendations on various items. In real world, people are willing to take adv...
