As the amount of data increases exponentially, the recommender system is attracting interest in various industries such as movies, books, and music, and is being studied. The recommendation system aims to propose an appropriate item to the user based on the user's past preference and click stream. Typical examples include Netflix's movie recommendation system and Amazon's book recommendation system. Previous studies can be categorized into three types: collaborative filtering, content-based recommendation, and hybrid recommendation. However, existing recommendation systems have disadvantages such as sparsity, cold start, and scalability problems. To improve these shortcomings and to develop a more accurate recommendation system, we have designed a recommendation system as a factorization machine using actual online product purchase data.

Recommendation systems are frequently used by users to generate intelligent automatic decisions. In the study of movie recommendation system, the existing approach uses largely collaboration and content-based filtering techniques. Collaborative filtering considers user similarity, while content-based filtering focuses on the activity of a single user. Also, mixed filtering approaches that combine collaborative filtering and content-based filtering are being used to compensate for each other's limitations. Recently, several AI-based similarity techniques have been used to find similarities between users to provide better recommendation services. This paper aims to provide the prospective expansion by deriving possible solutions through the analysis of various existing movie recommendation systems and their challenges.

In this paper, we describe a new summarizing method based on a graph-based and a sense-based analysis. In the graph-based analysis, we convert sentences in a document into word vectors and calculate the similarity between each sentence using LSA. We reflect this similarity of sentences and the rarity scores of words in sentences to define weights of edges in the graph. Meanwhile, in the sense-based analysis, in order to determine the sense of words, subjectivity or objectivity, we built a database which is extended from the golden standards using Wordnet. We calculate the subjectivity of sentences from the sense of words, and select more subjective sentences. Lastly, we combine the results of these two methods. We evaluate the performance of the proposed method using classification games, which are usually used to measure the performances of summarization methods. We compare our method with the MS-Word auto-summarization, and verify the effectiveness of ours.

Recommendation systems play a significant role in providing personalized information to users, with enhanced satisfaction and reduced information overload. Since the mid-1990s, many studies have been conducted on recommendation systems, but few have examined the recommendations of information from people in the online social networking environment. In this paper, we present a hybrid recommendation method that combines both the traditional system of content-based techniques to improve specialization, and the recently developed system of social network-based techniques to best overcome a few limitations of the traditional techniques, such as the cold-start problem. By suggesting a state-of-the-art method, this research will help users in online social networks view more personalized information with less effort than before.

Due to the ever expanding nature of the Web, separating more valuable information from the noisy data is getting more important. Although recommendation systems are widely used for addressing the information overloading issue, their performance does not seem meaningfully improved in currently suggested approaches. Hence, to investigate the issues, this study discusses different characteristics of popular, existing recommendation approaches, and proposes a new profiling technique that uses collaborative tags and test whether it successfully compensates the limitations of the existing approaches. In addition, the study also empirically evaluates rating/tagging patterns of users in various recommendation approaches, which include the proposed approach, to learn whether those patterns can be used as effective cues for improving the recommendations accuracy. Through the sensitivity analyses, this study also suggests the potential associated with a single recommendation system that applies multiple approaches for different users or items depending upon the types and contexts of recommendations.

Recent recommender system user a method of combining collaborative filtering system and content based filtering system in order to slove the problem of the Sparsity and First-Rater in collaborative filtering system. In this paper, to make up for the prediction accuracy in hybrid Recommender system, the harmonic mean weight(CBCF_harmonic_mean) is used for calculating the user similarity weight. After setting up the threshold as 45 considering the performance of content based filtering, we apply significance weight of n/45 to user similarity weight. To estimate the performance of the proposed method, it if compared with that of combing both the existing collaborative filtering system and the content- based filtering system. As a result, it confirms that the suggested method is efficient at improving the prediction accuracy as solving problems of the exiting collaborative filtering system.

Recommender systems have become an important research field since the emergence of the first paper on collaborative filtering in the mid-1990s. In general, recommender systems are defined as the supporting systems which help users to find information, products, or services (such as books, movies, music, digital products, web sites, and TV programs) by aggregating and analyzing suggestions from other users, which mean reviews from various authorities, and user attributes. However, as academic researches on recommender systems have increased significantly over the last ten years, more researches are required to be applicable in the real world situation. Because research field on recommender systems is still wide and less mature than other research fields. Accordingly, the existing articles on recommender systems need to be reviewed toward the next generation of recommender systems. However, it would be not easy to confine the recommender system researches to specific disciplines, considering the nature of the recommender system researches. So, we reviewed all articles on recommender systems from 37 journals which were published from 2001 to 2010. The 37 journals are selected from top 125 journals of the MIS Journal Rankings. Also, the literature search was based on the descriptors "Recommender system", "Recommendation system", "Personalization system", "Collaborative filtering" and "Contents filtering". The full text of each article was reviewed to eliminate the article that was not actually related to recommender systems. Many of articles were excluded because the articles such as Conference papers, master's and doctoral dissertations, textbook, unpublished working papers, non-English publication papers and news were unfit for our research. We classified articles by year of publication, journals, recommendation fields, and data mining techniques. The recommendation fields and data mining techniques of 187 articles are reviewed and classified into eight recommendation fields (book, document, image, movie, music, shopping, TV program, and others) and eight data mining techniques (association rule, clustering, decision tree, k-nearest neighbor, link analysis, neural network, regression, and other heuristic methods). The results represented in this paper have several significant implications. First, based on previous publication rates, the interest in the recommender system related research will grow significantly in the future. Second, 49 articles are related to movie recommendation whereas image and TV program recommendation are identified in only 6 articles. This result has been caused by the easy use of MovieLens data set. So, it is necessary to prepare data set of other fields. Third, recently social network analysis has been used in the various applications. However studies on recommender systems using social network analysis are deficient. Henceforth, we expect that new recommendation approaches using social network analysis will be developed in the recommender systems. So, it will be an interesting and further research area to evaluate the recommendation system researches using social method analysis. This result provides trend of recommender system researches by examining the published literature, and provides practitioners and researchers with insight and future direction on recommender systems. We hope that this research helps anyone who is interested in recommender systems research to gain insight for future research.

본 연구는 추천시스템에서 협업필터링 알고리즘을 이용하여 특정 상품에 대한 고객의 선호도를 예측함에 있어 고객이 상품에 대해 평가한 선호도 평가치를 고객별로 표준화시켜 예측하여 기존의 예측 정확도를 향상시키는 방법에 대하여 연구하였다. 일반적으로 상품에 대한 고객의 선호도를 평가하기 위하여 절대적 기준의 수치적 척도가 제공되지만 개인에 따라서는 상품에 대한 선호 정도가 절대적 척도에 다르게 반영되어 개인별 선호도에 차이가 발생할 수 있다. 이러한 개인적 특성이 동일한 척도의 평가치로 예측되면 예측 결과의 오차를 크게 할 가능성이 있다. 또한 개인이 평가한 선호도 평가치의 편차가 협업필터링 알고리즘을 통한 선호도 예측 정확도와 밀접한 관계를 가지고 있음을 알 수 있었으며 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 개별 고객이 평가한 선호도 평가치를 표준화시켜 표준화된 선호도 평가치를 이용한 선호도 예측을 실시하였다. 분석결과 표준화된 선호도 평가치를 이용한 예측 결과가 비표준화 선호도 평가치를 이용한 예측 결과보다 예측력이 우수함을 알 수 있었으며 결과에 대한 통계적 분석을 통하여 표준화된 선호도 평가치를 이용한 선호도 예측 방법과 비 표준화 선호도 평가치를 이용한 선호도 예측 방법을 혼합할 경우 선호도 예측 정확도를 더 향상시킬 수 있음을 알 수 있었다.
