As big data technologies have been developed and massive data have exploded from users through various channels, CEO of global IT enterprise mentioned core importance of data in next generation business. Therefore various machine learning technologies have been necessary to apply data driven services but especially recommendation has been core technique in viewpoint of directly providing summarized information or exact choice of items to users in information flooding environment. Recently evolved recommendation techniques have been proposed by many researchers and most of service companies with big data tried to apply refined recommendation method on their online business. For example, Amazon used item to item collaborative filtering method on its sales distribution platform. In this paper, we develop a commercial web service for suggesting music contents and implement three representative collaborative filtering methods on the service. We also produce recommendation lists with three methods based on real world sample data and evaluate the usefulness of them by comparison among the produced result. This study is meaningful in terms of suggesting the right direction and practicality when companies and developers want to develop web services by applying big data based recommendation techniques in practical environment.

Due to the development of ubiquitous computing, a wide variety of information is being produced and distributed rapidly in digital form. In this excess of information, it is not easy for users to search and find their desired information in short time. In this paper, we propose the personalized item recommendation using the image based filtering. This research uses the image based filtering which is extracting the feature from the image data that a user is interested in, in order to improve the superficial problem of content analysis. We evaluate the performance of the proposed method and it is compared with the performance of previous studies of the content based filtering and the collaborative filtering in the MovieLens dataset. And the results have shown that the proposed method significantly outperforms the previous methods.

This short paper briefly describes the proposed music recommendation method that provides suitable music pieces to a listener depending on both listeners' ratings and content of music pieces. The proposed method consists of two methods. First, listeners' ratings prediction method is a combination the traditional user-based and item-based collaborative filtering methods. Second, genre classification method is a combination of feature extraction and classification procedures. The feature extraction step obtains audio signal information and stores it in data structure, while the second one classifies the music pieces into various genres using decision tree algorithm.

Contents Recommender System predicts user's preferences towards contents, and then recommends highly-predicted contents to user. Digital Identifier plays its part in identifying abstract works or digital contents in digital network environment. Digital Identifier could be effectively used in content-based filtering and collaborative filtering that are mainly used in Contents Recommender Systems. Therefore, this paper proposes an improvement of UCI metadata and resolution service for effective use of UCI in massive contents recommender systems. UCI metadata is expanded by adding elements such as abstract, keyword, genre, age, rate and review. Resolution service allows the operation systems to collect user preference for content by including input part of preference in a result page. This paper also designs and implements an improved UCI operation system and shows that the proposed improvement of UCI metadata and resolution service could be used for massive contents recommendation.

As mobile market grows more and more fast, the mobile contents market, especially music contents for mobile phones have recorded remarkable growth. In spite of this rapid growth, mobile web users experience high levels of frustration to search the desired music. New musics are very profitable to the content providers, but the existing collaborative filtering (CF) system can't recommend them. To solve these problems, we propose an extended CF system to reflect the user's real preference by representing the characteristics of users and musics in the feature space. We represent the musics using the music contents based acoustic features in multi-dimensional feature space, and then select a neighborhood with the distance based function. Furthermore, this paper suggests a recommendation for procedure for new music by matching new music with other users' preference. The suggested procedure is explained step by step with an illustration example.

A user preference prediction method using an exiting collaborative filtering technique has used the nearest-neighborhood method based on the user preference about items and has sought the user's similarity from the Pearson correlation coefficient. Therefore, it does not reflect any contents about items and also solve the problem of the sparsity. This study suggests the preference prediction system using the similarity weight granted Bayesian estimated value and the associative user clustering to complement problems of an exiting collaborative preference prediction method. This method suggested in this paper groups the user according to the Genre by using Association Rule Hypergraph Partitioning Algorithm and the new user is classified into one of these Genres by Naive Bayes classifier to slove the problem of sparsity in the collaborative filtering system. Besides, for get the similarity between users belonged to the classified genre and new users, this study allows the different estimated value to item which user vote through Naive Bayes learning. If the preference with estimated value is applied to the exiting Pearson correlation coefficient, it is able to promote the precision of the prediction by reducing the error of the prediction because of missing value. To estimate the performance of suggested method, the suggested method is compared with existing collaborative filtering techniques. As a result, the proposed method is efficient for improving the accuracy of prediction through solving problems of existing collaborative filtering techniques.

With the tremendous rise in popularity of the Internet and technological advancements, many news keeps generating every day from multiple sources. As a result, the information (News) on the network has been highly increasing. The critical problem is that the volume of articles or news content can be overloaded for the readers. Therefore, the people interested in reading news might find it difficult to decide which content they should choose. Recommendation systems have been known as filtering systems that assist people and give a list of suggestions based on their preferences. This paper studies a personalized news recommendation system to help users find the right, relevant content and suggest news that readers might be interested in. The proposed system aims to build a hybrid system that combines collaborative filtering with content-based filtering to make a system more effective and solve a cold-start problem. Twitter social media data will analyze and build a user's profile. Based on users' tweets, we can know users' interests and recommend personalized news articles that users would share on Twitter.

In contrast to content_based filtering systems, collaborative filtering systems not only don't contain information of items, they can not recommend items when users don't provide the information of their interests. In this paper, we propose the recommender agent using association item tree to solve the shortcomings of collaborative filtering systems. Firstly, the proposed method clusters users into groups using vector space model and K-means algorithm and selects group typical rating values. Secondly, the degree of associations between items is extracted from computing mutual information between items and an associative item tree is generated by group. Finally, the method recommends items to an active user by using a group typical rating value and an association item tree. The recommender agent recommends items by combining user information with item information. In addition, it can accurately recommend items to an active user, whose information is insufficient at first rate, by using an association item tree based on mutual information for the similarity between items. The proposed method is compared with previous methods on the data set of MovieLens recommender system.

As the growth of developing Islamic countries, Muslims are into the world. The most important thing for Muslims to purchase food, ingredient, cosmetics and other products are whether they were certified as 'Halal'. With the increasing number of Muslim tourists and residents in Korea, Halal restaurants and markets are on the rise. However, the service that provides information on Halal restaurants and markets in Korea is very limited. Especially, the application of recommendation system technology is effective to provide Halal restaurant information to users efficiently. The profiling of Halal restaurant information should be preceded by design of recommendation system, and design of recommendation algorithm is most important part in designing recommendation system. In this paper, an Intelligent Recommendation Service system for offering Halal food (IRSH) based on dynamic profiles was proposed. The proposed system recommend a customized Halal restaurant, and proposed recommendation algorithm uses hybrid filtering which is combined by content-based filtering, collaborative filtering and location-based filtering. The proposed algorithm combines several filtering techniques in order to improve the accuracy of recommendation by complementing the various problems of each filtering. The experiment of performance evaluation for comparing with existed restaurant recommendation system was proceeded, and result that proposed IRSH increase recommendation accuracy using Halal contents was deducted.
