| Abstract: | The rapid development of information technology and the fast growth of Internet have facilitated an explosion of information which has accentuated the information overload problem. Recommender systems have emerged in response to this problem and helped users to find their interesting contents. With increasingly complicated social context, how to fulfill personalized needs better has become a new trend in personalized recommendation service studies. In order to alleviate the sparsity problem of recommender systems meanwhile increase their accuracy and diversity in complex contexts, we propose a novel recommendation method based on social network using matrix factorization technique. In this method, we cluster users and consider a variety of complex factors. The simulation results on two benchmark data sets and a real data set show that our method achieves superior performance to existing methods. |
