Recommender Systems deal with the issue of overloading information by retrieving the most relevant sources in the wide range of web services. They help users by predicting their interests in many domains like e-government, social networks, e-commerce and entertainment. Collaborative Filtering (CF) is the most promising technique used in recommender systems to give suggestions based on liked-mind users’ preferences. Despite the widespread use of CF in providing personalized recommendation, this technique has problems including cold start, data sparsity and gray sheep. Eventually, these problems lead to the deterioration of the efficiency of CF. Most existing recommendation methods have been proposed to overcome the problems of CF. However, they fail to suggest the top-n recommendations based on the sequencing of the users’ priorities. In this research, to overcome the shortcomings of CF and current recommendation methods in ranking preference dataset, we have used a new graph-based structure to model the users’ priorities and capture the association between users and items. Users’ profiles are created based on their past and current interest. This is done because their interest can change with time. Our proposed algorithm keeps the preferred items of active user at the beginning of the recommendation list. This means these items come under top-n recommendations, which results in satisfaction among users. The experimental results demonstrate that our algorithm archives the significant improvement in comparison with CF and other proposed recommendation methods in terms of recall, precision, f-measure and MAP metrics using two benchmark datasets including MovieLens and Superstore.  相似文献

Recommender systems learn from historical users’ feedback that is often non-uniformly distributed across items. As a consequence, these systems may end up suggesting popular items more than niche items progressively, even when the latter would be of interest for users. This can hamper several core qualities of the recommended lists (e.g., novelty, coverage, diversity), impacting on the future success of the underlying platform itself. In this paper, we formalize two novel metrics that quantify how much a recommender system equally treats items along the popularity tail. The first one encourages equal probability of being recommended across items, while the second one encourages true positive rates for items to be equal. We characterize the recommendations of representative algorithms by means of the proposed metrics, and we show that the item probability of being recommended and the item true positive rate are biased against the item popularity. To promote a more equal treatment of items along the popularity tail, we propose an in-processing approach aimed at minimizing the biased correlation between user-item relevance and item popularity. Extensive experiments show that, with small losses in accuracy, our popularity-mitigation approach leads to important gains in beyond-accuracy recommendation quality.  相似文献

To achieve personalized recommendations, the recommender system selects the items that users may like by learning the collected user–item interaction data. However, the acquisition and use of data usually form a feedback loop, which leads to recommender systems suffering from popularity bias. To solve this problem, we propose a novel dual disentanglement of user–item interaction for recommendation with causal embedding (DDCE). Different from the existing work, our innovation is we take into account double-end popularity bias from the user-side and the item-side. Firstly, we perform a causal analysis of the reasons for user–item interaction and obtain the causal embedding representation of each part according to the analysis results. Secondly, on the item-side, we consider the influence of item attributes on popularity to improve the reliability of the item popularity. Then, on the user-side, we consider the effect of the time series when obtaining users’ interest. We model the contrastive learning task to disentangle users’ long–short-term interests, which avoids the bias of long–short-term interests overlapping, and use the attention mechanism to realize the dynamic integration of users’ long–short-term interests. Finally, we realize the disentanglement of user–item interaction reasons by decoupling user interest and item popularity. We experiment on two real-world datasets (Douban Movie and KuaiRec) to verify the significance of DDCE, the average improvement of DDCE in three evaluation metrics (NDCG, HR, and Recall) compared to the state-of-the-art model are 5.1106% and 4.1277% (MF as the backbone), 3.8256% and 3.2790% (LightGCN as the backbone), respectively.  相似文献

With the information explosion of news articles, personalized news recommendation has become important for users to quickly find news that they are interested in. Existing methods on news recommendation mainly include collaborative filtering methods which rely on direct user-item interactions and content based methods which characterize the content of user reading history. Although these methods have achieved good performances, they still suffer from data sparse problem, since most of them fail to extensively exploit high-order structure information (similar users tend to read similar news articles) in news recommendation systems. In this paper, we propose to build a heterogeneous graph to explicitly model the interactions among users, news and latent topics. The incorporated topic information would help indicate a user’s interest and alleviate the sparsity of user-item interactions. Then we take advantage of graph neural networks to learn user and news representations that encode high-order structure information by propagating embeddings over the graph. The learned user embeddings with complete historic user clicks capture the users’ long-term interests. We also consider a user’s short-term interest using the recent reading history with an attention based LSTM model. Experimental results on real-world datasets show that our proposed model significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods on news recommendation.  相似文献

In this paper, we propose a generative model, the Topic-based User Interest (TUI) model, to capture the user interest in the User-Interactive Question Answering (UIQA) systems. Specifically, our method aims to model the user interest in the UIQA systems with latent topic method, and extract interests for users by mining the questions they asked, the categories they participated in and relevant answer providers. We apply the TUI model to the application of question recommendation, which automatically recommends to certain user appropriate questions he might be interested in. Data collection from Yahoo! Answers is used to evaluate the performance of the proposed model in question recommendation, and the experimental results show the effectiveness of our proposed model.  相似文献

Recommender Systems (RSs) aim to model and predict the user preference while interacting with items, such as Points of Interest (POIs). These systems face several challenges, such as data sparsity, limiting their effectiveness. In this paper, we address this problem by incorporating social, geographical, and temporal information into the Matrix Factorization (MF) technique. To this end, we model social influence based on two factors: similarities between users in terms of common check-ins and the friendships between them. We introduce two levels of friendship based on explicit friendship networks and high check-in overlap between users. We base our friendship algorithm on users’ geographical activity centers. The results show that our proposed model outperforms the state-of-the-art on two real-world datasets. More specifically, our ablation study shows that the social model improves the performance of our proposed POI recommendation system by 31% and 14% on the Gowalla and Yelp datasets in terms of Precision@10, respectively.  相似文献

Graph neural networks have been frequently applied in recommender systems due to their powerful representation abilities for irregular data. However, these methods still suffer from the difficulties such as the inflexible graph structure, sparse and highly imbalanced data, and relatively shallow networks, limiting rate prediction ability for recommendations. This paper presents a novel deep dynamic graph attention framework based on influence and preference relationship reconstruction (DGA-IPR) for recommender systems to learn optimal latent representations of users and items. The entire framework involves a user branch and an item branch. An influence-based dynamic graph attention (IDGA) module, a preference-based dynamic graph attention (PDGA) module, and an adaptive fine feature extraction (AFFE) module are respectively constructed for each branch. Concretely, the first two attention modules concentrate on reconstructing influence and preference relationship graphs, breaking imbalanced and fixed constraints of graph structures. Then a deep feature aggregation block and an adaptive feature fusion operation are built, improving the network depth and capturing potential high-order information expressions. Besides, AFFE is designed to acquire finer latent features for users and items. The DGA-IPR architecture is formed by integrating IDGA, PDGA, and AFFE for users and items, respectively. Experiments reveal the superiority of DGA-IPR over existing recommendation models.  相似文献

The matrix factorization model based on user-item rating data has been widely studied and applied in recommender systems. However, data sparsity, the cold-start problem, and poor explainability have restricted its performance. Textual reviews usually contain rich information about items’ features and users’ sentiments and preferences, which can solve the problem of insufficient information from only user ratings. However, most recommendation algorithms that take sentiment analysis of review texts into account are either fine- or coarse-grained, but not both, leading to uncertain accuracy and comprehensiveness regarding user preference. This study proposes a deep learning recommendation model (i.e., DeepCGSR) that integrates textual review sentiments and the rating matrix. DeepCGSR uses the review sets of users and items as a corpus to perform cross-grained sentiment analysis by combining fine- and coarse-grained levels to extract sentiment feature vectors for users and items. Deep learning technology is used to map between the extracted feature vector and latent factor through the rating-based matrix factorization model and obtain deep, nonlinear features to predict the user's rating of an item. Iterative experiments on e-commerce datasets from Amazon show that DeepCGSR consistently outperforms the recommendation models LFM, SVD++, DeepCoNN, TOPICMF, and NARRE. Overall, comparing with other recommendation models, the DeepCGSR model demonstrated improved evaluation results by 14.113% over LFM, 13.786% over SVD++, 9.920% over TOPICMF, 5.122% over DeepCoNN, and 2.765% over NARRE. Meanwhile, the DeepCGSR has great potential in fixing the overfitting and cold-start problems. Built upon previous studies and findings, the DeepCGSR is the state of the art, moving the design and development of the recommendation algorithms forward with improved recommendation accuracy.  相似文献

In this paper, we focus on the problem of discovering internally connected communities in event-based social networks (EBSNs) and propose a community detection method by utilizing social influences between users. Different from traditional social network, EBSNs contain different types of entities and links, and users in EBSNs have more complex behaviours. This leads to poor performance of the traditional social influence computation method in EBSNs. Therefore, to quantify the pairwise social influence accurately in EBSNs, we first propose to compute two types of social influences, i.e., structure-based social influence and behaviour-based social influence, by utilizing the online social network structure and offline social behaviours of users. In particular, based on the specific features of EBSNs, the similarities of user preference on three aspects (i.e., topics, regions and organizers) are utilized to measure the behaviour-based social influence. Then, we obtain the unified pairwise social influence by combining these two types of social influences through a weight function. Next, we present a social influence based community detection algorithm which is referred to as SICD. In SICD, inspired by the nonlinear feature learning ability of the autoencoder, we first devise a neighborhood based deep autoencoder algorithm to obtain nonlinear community-oriented latent representations of users, and then utilize the k-means algorithm for community detection. Experimental results conducted on real-world dataset show the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm.  相似文献

The primary aim of location recommendation is to predict users’ future movement by modeling user preference. Multiple types of information have been adopted in profiling users; however, simultaneously combining them for a better recommendation is challenging. In this study, a novel location recommendation method that incorporates geographical, categorical, and social preferences with location popularity is proposed. Experimental results on two public datasets show that the proposed method significantly outperforms two state-of-the-art recommendation methods. Geographical preference generally shows more importance than both categorical and social preferences. A category hierarchy that unleashes the independent assumption of location tags improves categorical preference. Location popularity proves to be a useful metric in ranking candidate locations. The findings of this study can provide practical guidelines for location recommendation services.  相似文献

Recommender systems are techniques to make personalized recommendations of items to users. In e-commerce sites and online sharing communities, providing high quality recommendations is an important issue which can help the users to make effective decisions to select a set of items. Collaborative filtering is an important type of the recommender systems that produces user specific recommendations of the items based on the patterns of ratings or usage (e.g. purchases). However, the quality of predicted ratings and neighbor selection for the users are important problems in the recommender systems. Selecting suitable neighbors set for the users leads to improve the accuracy of ratings prediction in recommendation process. In this paper, a novel social recommendation method is proposed which is based on an adaptive neighbor selection mechanism. In the proposed method first of all, initial neighbors set of the users is calculated using clustering algorithm. In this step, the combination of historical ratings and social information between the users are used to form initial neighbors set for the users. Then, these neighbor sets are used to predict initial ratings of the unseen items. Moreover, the quality of the initial predicted ratings is evaluated using a reliability measure which is based on the historical ratings and social information between the users. Then, a confidence model is proposed to remove useless users from the initial neighbors of the users and form a new adapted neighbors set for the users. Finally, new ratings of the unseen items are predicted using the new adapted neighbors set of the users and the top_N interested items are recommended to the active user. Experimental results on three real-world datasets show that the proposed method significantly outperforms several state-of-the-art recommendation methods.  相似文献

Inferring users’ interests from their activities on social networks has been an emerging research topic in the recent years. Most existing approaches heavily rely on the explicit contributions (posts) of a user and overlook users’ implicit interests, i.e., those potential user interests that the user did not explicitly mention but might have interest in. Given a set of active topics present in a social network in a specified time interval, our goal is to build an interest profile for a user over these topics by considering both explicit and implicit interests of the user. The reason for this is that the interests of free-riders and cold start users who constitute a large majority of social network users, cannot be directly identified from their explicit contributions to the social network. Specifically, to infer users’ implicit interests, we propose a graph-based link prediction schema that operates over a representation model consisting of three types of information: user explicit contributions to topics, relationships between users, and the relatedness between topics. Through extensive experiments on different variants of our representation model and considering both homogeneous and heterogeneous link prediction, we investigate how topic relatedness and users’ homophily relation impact the quality of inferring users’ implicit interests. Comparison with state-of-the-art baselines on a real-world Twitter dataset demonstrates the effectiveness of our model in inferring users’ interests in terms of perplexity and in the context of retweet prediction application. Moreover, we further show that the impact of our work is especially meaningful when considered in case of free-riders and cold start users.  相似文献

This paper constructs a novel enhanced latent semantic model based on users’ comments, and employs regularization factors to capture the temporal evolution characteristics of users’ potential topics for each commodity, so as to improve the accuracy of recommendation. The adaptive temporal weighting of multiple preference features is also improved to calculate the preferences of different users at different time periods using human forgetting features, item interest overlap, and similarity at the semantic level of the review text to improve the accuracy of sparse evaluation data. The paper conducts comparison experiments with six temporal matrix-based decomposition baseline methods in nine datasets, and the results show that the accuracy is 31.64% better than TimeSVD++, 21.08% better than BTMF, 15.51% better than TMRevCo, 13.99% better than BPTF, 9.24% better than TCMF, and 3.19% better than MUTPD ,which indicates that the model is more effective in capturing users’ temporal interest drift and better reflects the evolutionary relationship between users’ latent topics and item ratings.  相似文献

A large volume of data flowing throughout location-based social networks (LBSN) gives support to the recommendation of points-of-interest (POI). One of the major challenges that significantly affects the precision of recommendation is to find dynamic spatio-temporal patterns of visiting behaviors, which can hardly be figured out because of the multiple side factors. To confront this difficulty, we jointly study the effects of users’ social relationships, textual reviews, and POIs’ geographical proximity in order to excavate complex spatio-temporal patterns of visiting behaviors when the data quality is unreliable for location recommendation in spatio-temporal social networks. We craft a novel framework that recommends any user the POIs with effectiveness. The framework contains two significant techniques: (i) a network embedding method is adopted to learn the vectors of users and POIs in an embedding space of low dimension; (ii) a dynamic factor graph model is proposed to model various factors such as the correlation of vectors in the previous phase. A collection of experiments was carried out on two real large-scale datasets, and the experimental outcomes demonstrate the supremacy of the proposed method over the most advanced baseline algorithms owing to its highly effective and efficient performance of POI recommendation.  相似文献

Learning latent representations for users and points of interests (POIs) is an important task in location-based social networks (LBSN), which could largely benefit multiple location-based services, such as POI recommendation and social link prediction. Many contextual factors, like geographical influence, user social relationship and temporal information, are available in LBSN and would be useful for this task. However, incorporating all these contextual factors for user and POI representation learning in LBSN remains challenging, due to their heterogeneous nature. Although the encouraging performance of POI recommendation and social link prediction are delivered, most of the existing representation learning methods for LBSN incorporate only one or two of these contextual factors. In this paper, we propose a novel joint representation learning framework for users and POIs in LBSN, named UP2VEC. In UP2VEC, we present a heterogeneous LBSN graph to incorporate all these aforementioned factors. Specifically, the transition probabilities between nodes inside the heterogeneous graph are derived by jointly considering these contextual factors. The latent representations of users and POIs are then learnt by matching the topological structure of the heterogeneous graph. For evaluating the effectiveness of UP2VEC, a series of experiments are conducted with two real-world datasets (Foursquare and Gowalla) in terms of POI recommendation and social link prediction. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed UP2VEC significantly outperforms the existing state-of-the-art alternatives. Further experiment shows the superiority of UP2VEC in handling cold-start problem for POI recommendation.  相似文献

Recommender systems are based on inherent forms of social influence. Indeed, suggestions are provided to the users based on the opinions of peers. Given the relevance that ratings have nowadays to push the sales of an item, sellers might decide to bribe users so that they rate or change the ratings given to items, thus increasing the sellers’ reputation. Hence, by exploiting the fact that influential users can lead an item to get recommended, bribing can become an effective way to negatively exploit social influence and introduce a bias in the recommendations. Given that bribing is forbidden but still employed by sellers, we propose a novel matrix completion algorithm that performs hybrid memory-based collaborative filtering using an approximation of Kolmogorov complexity. We also propose a framework to study the bribery effect and the bribery resistance of our approach. Our theoretical analysis, validated through experiments on real-world datasets, shows that our approach is an effective way to counter bribing while, with state-of-the-art algorithms, sellers can bribe a large part of the users.  相似文献

Graph-based recommendation approaches use a graph model to represent the relationships between users and items, and exploit the graph structure to make recommendations. Recent graph-based recommendation approaches focused on capturing users’ pairwise preferences and utilized a graph model to exploit the relationships between different entities in the graph. In this paper, we focus on the impact of pairwise preferences on the diversity of recommendations. We propose a novel graph-based ranking oriented recommendation algorithm that exploits both explicit and implicit feedback of users. The algorithm utilizes a user-preference-item tripartite graph model and modified resource allocation process to match the target user with users who share similar preferences, and make personalized recommendations. The principle of the additional preference layer is to capture users’ pairwise preferences, provide detailed information of users for further recommendations. Empirical analysis of four benchmark datasets demonstrated that our proposed algorithm performs better in most situations than other graph-based and ranking-oriented benchmark algorithms.  相似文献

Integrating useful input information is essential to provide efficient recommendations to users. In this work, we focus on improving items ratings prediction by merging both multiple contexts and multiple criteria based research directions which were addressed separately in most existent literature. Throughout this article, Criteria refer to the items attributes, while Context denotes the circumstances in which the user uses an item. Our goal is to capture more fine grained preferences to improve items recommendation quality using users’ multiple criteria ratings under specific contextual situations. Therefore, we examine the recommenders’ data from the graph theory based perspective by representing three types of entities (users, contextual situations and criteria) as well as their relationships as a tripartite graph. Upon the assumption that contextually similar users tend to have similar interests for similar item criteria, we perform a high-order co-clustering on the tripartite graph for simultaneously partitioning the graph entities representing users in similar contextual situations and their evaluated item criteria. To predict cluster-based multi-criteria ratings, we introduce an improved rating prediction method that considers the dependency between users and their contextual situations, and also takes into account the correlation between criteria in the prediction process. The predicted multi-criteria ratings are finally aggregated into a single representative output corresponding to an overall item rating. To guide our investigation, we create a research hypothesis to provide insights about the tripartite graph partitioning and design clear and justified preliminary experiments including quantitative and qualitative analyzes to validate it. Further thorough experiments on the two available context-aware multi-criteria datasets, TripAdvisor and Educational, demonstrate that our proposal exhibits substantial improvements over alternative recommendations approaches.  相似文献
