Recommender systems based on ranking performance optimization

The rapid development of online services and information overload has inspired the fast development of recommender systems, among which collaborative filtering algorithms and model-based recommendation approaches are wildly exploited. For instance, matrix factorization (MF) demonstrated successful achievements and advantages in assisting internet users in finding interested information. These existing models focus on the prediction of the users’ ratings on unknown items. The performance is usually evaluated by the metric root mean square error (RMSE). However, achieving good performance in terms of RMSE does not always guarantee a good ranking performance. Therefore, in this paper, we advocate to treat the recommendation as a ranking problem. Normalized discounted cumulative gain (NDCG) is chosen as the optimization target when evaluating the ranking accuracy. Specifically, we present three ranking-oriented recommender algorithms, NSMF, AdaMF and AdaNSMF. NSMF builds a NDCG approximated loss function for Matrix Factorization. AdaMF is based on an algorithm by adaptively combining component MF recommenders with boosting method. To combine the advantages of both algorithms, we propose AdaNSMF, which is a hybird of NSMF and AdaMF, and show the superiority in both ranking accuracy and model generalization. In addition, we compare our proposed approaches with the state-of-the-art recommendation algorithms. The comparison studies confirm the advantage of our proposed approaches.

A Web service QoS prediction approach based on time- and location-aware collaborative filtering

In QoS-based Web service recommendation, predicting quality of service (QoS) for users will greatly aid service selection and discovery. Collaborative filtering (CF) is an effective method for Web service selection and recommendation. CF algorithms can be divided into two main categories: memory-based and model-based algorithms. Memory-based CF algorithms are easy to implement and highly effective, but they suffer from a fundamental problem: inability to scale-up. Model-based CF algorithms, such as clustering CF algorithms, address the scalability problem by seeking users for recommendation within smaller and highly similar clusters, rather than within the entire database. However, they are often time-consuming to build and update. In this paper, we propose a time-aware and location-aware CF algorithms. To validate our algorithm, this paper conducts series of large-scale experiments based on a real-world Web service QoS data set. Experimental results show that our approach is capable of addressing the three important challenges of recommender systems–high quality of prediction, high scalability, and easy to build and update.     

The dynamic competitive recommendation algorithm in social network services

As the number of Twitter users exceeds 175 million and the scale of social network increases, it is facing with a challenge to how to help people find right people and information conveniently. For this purpose, current social network services are adopting personalized recommender systems. Existing recommendation algorithms largely depend on one of content-based algorithm, collaborative filtering, or influential ranking analysis. However, these algorithms tend to suffer from the performance fluctuation phenomenon in common whenever an active user changes, and it is due to the diversities of personal characteristics such as the local social graph size, the number of followers, or sparsity of profile content. To overcome this limitation and to provide consistent and stable recommendation in social networks, this study proposes the dynamic competitive recommendation algorithm based on the competition of multiple component algorithms. This study shows that it outperforms previous approaches through performance evaluation on actual Twitter dataset.     

From similarity perspective: a robust collaborative filtering approach for service recommendations

Collaborative filtering (CF) is a technique commonly used for personalized recommendation and Web service quality-of-service (QoS) prediction. However, CF is vulnerable to shilling attackers who inject fake user profiles into the system. In this paper, we first present the shilling attack problem on CF-based QoS recommender systems for Web services. Then, a robust CF recommendation approach is proposed from a user similarity perspective to enhance the resistance of the recommender systems to the shilling attack. In the approach, the generally used similarity measures are analyzed, and the DegSim (the degree of similarities with top k neighbors) with those measures is selected for grouping and weighting the users. Then, the weights are used to calculate the service similarities/differences and predictions.We analyzed and evaluated our algorithms using WS-DREAM and Movielens datasets. The experimental results demonstrate that shilling attacks influence the prediction of QoS values, and our proposed features and algorithms achieve a higher degree of robustness against shilling attacks than the typical CF algorithms.

Recommendation algorithm based on item quality and user rating preferences

Recommender systems are one of the most important technologies in e-commerce to help users filter out the overload of information. However, current mainstream recommendation algorithms, such as the collaborative filtering CF family, have problems such as scalability and sparseness. These problems hinder further developments of recommender systems. We propose a new recommendation algorithm based on item quality and user rating preferences, which can significantly decrease the computing complexity. Besides, it is interpretable and works better when the data is sparse. Through extensive experiments on three benchmark data sets, we show that our algorithm achieves higher accuracy in rating prediction compared with the traditional approaches. Furthermore, the results also demonstrate that the problem of rating prediction depends strongly on item quality and user rating preferences, thus opens new paths for further study.
