图书评价与推荐中的作者性别研究

Exploring Author Gender in Book Rating and Recommendation

Michael D. Ekstrand, Daniel Kluver

摘要:

协同过滤算法在评级和消费数据中发现有用的模式,并利用这些模式来引导用户选择好的项目。评级数据集中的许多模式反映了数据中不同用户和项目之间的重要现实差异;其他模式可能与社会或道德原因无关或可能不受欢迎,特别是如果它们反映了不受欢迎的歧视,例如出版或购买时对女性或少数民族作者的歧视。在这项工作中,我们研究了协同过滤推荐算法的响应,他们的输入数据的分布方面的社会关注的一个方面,即内容创建者的性别。使用公开的图书评级数据,我们测量了用户评级配置文件和推荐列表中图书作者的性别分布。我们发现,常见的协同过滤算法不同的性别分布的推荐列表,并在输出分布的关系,用户简档分布。

英文摘要:

Collaborative filtering algorithms find useful patterns in rating and consumption data and exploit these patterns to guide users to good items. Many of the patterns in rating datasets reflect important real-world differences between the various users and items in the data; other patterns may be irrelevant or possibly undesirable for social or ethical reasons, particularly if they reflect undesired discrimination, such as discrimination in publishing or purchasing against authors who are women or ethnic minorities. In this work, we examine the response of collaborative filtering recommender algorithms to the distribution of their input data with respect to a dimension of social concern, namely content creator gender. Using publicly-available book ratings data, we measure the distribution of the genders of the authors of books in user rating profiles and recommendation lists produced from this data. We find that common collaborative filtering algorithms differ in the gender distribution of their recommendation lists, and in the relationship of that output distribution to user profile distribution.
