Ranking by Inductive Inference in Collaborative Filtering Systems  

Ko, Su-Jeong (인덕대학 컴퓨터소프트웨어)
Abstract
Collaborative filtering systems grasp behaviors for a new user and need new information for the user in order to recommend interesting items to the user. For the purpose of acquiring the information the collaborative filtering systems learn behaviors for users based on the previous data and can obtain new information from the results. In this paper, we propose an inductive inference method to obtain new information for users and rank items by using the new information in the proposed method. The proposed method clusters users into groups by learning users through NMF among inductive machine learning methods and selects the group features from the groups by using chi-square. Then, the method classifies a new user into a group by using the bayesian probability model as one of inductive inference methods based on the rating values for the new user and the features of groups. Finally, the method decides the ranks of items by applying the Rocchio algorithm to items with the missing values.
