Neural Graph Collaborative Filtering

Learning vector representations (aka. embeddings) of users and items lies at the core of modern recommender systems. Ranging from early matrix factorization to recently emerged deep learning based methods, existing efforts typically obtain a user's (or an item's) embedding by mapping from pre-existing features that describe the user (or the item), such as ID and attributes. We argue that an inherent drawback of such methods is that, the collaborative signal, which is latent in user-item interactions, is not encoded in the embedding process. As such, the resultant embeddings may not be sufficie…

Collaborative Filtering Approach to Link Prediction

Link prediction is a fundamental challenge in network science. Among various methods, local similarity indices are widely used for their high cost-performance. However, the performance is less robust: for some networks local indices are highly competitive to state-of-the-art algorithms while for some other networks they are very poor. Inspired by techniques developed for recommender systems, we propose an enhancement framework for local indices based on collaborative filtering (CF). Considering the delicate but important difference between personalized recommendation and link prediction, we fu…

User Profile Feature-Based Approach to Address the Cold Start Problem in Collaborative Filtering for Personalized Movie Recommendation

A huge amount of user generated content related to movies is created with the popularization of web 2.0. With these continues exponential growth of data, there is an inevitable need for recommender systems as people find it difficult to make informed and timely decisions. Movie recommendation systems assist users to find the next interest or the best recommendation. In this proposed approach the authors apply the relationship of user feature-scores derived from user-item interaction via ratings to optimize the prediction algorithm's input parameters used in the recommender system to improve th…

Trust-Based Collaborative Filtering: Tackling the Cold Start Problem Using Regular Equivalence

User-based Collaborative Filtering (CF) is one of the most popular approaches to create recommender systems. This approach is based on finding the most relevant k users from whose rating history we can extract items to recommend. CF, however, suffers from data sparsity and the cold-start problem since users often rate only a small fraction of available items. One solution is to incorporate additional information into the recommendation process such as explicit trust scores that are assigned by users to others or implicit trust relationships that result from social connections between users. Su…

Performance of Recommender Systems: Based on Content Navigator and Collaborative Filtering

In the world of big data, many people find it difficult to access the information they need quickly and accurately. In order to overcome this, research on the system that recommends information accurately to users is continuously conducted. Collaborative Filtering is one of the famous algorithms among the most used in the industry. However, collaborative filtering is difficult to use in online systems because user recommendation is highly volatile in recommendation quality and requires computation using large matrices. To overcome this problem, this paper proposes a method similar to database …
