Recommendation is a personalized information filtering technology to help customers find which products they would like to purchase. Collaborative filtering works by matching customer preferences to other customers in making recommendations. But collaborative filtering based recommendations have two major limitations, sparsity and scalability. To overcome these problems we suggest using adjusted product hierarchy, grain. This methodology focuses on dimensionality reduction and uses a marketer's specific knowledge or experience to improve recommendation quality. The qualify of recommendations using each grain is compared with others by several experimentations. Experiments present that the usage of a grain holds the promise of allowing CF-based recommendations to scale to large data sets and at the same time produces better recommendations. In addition. our methodology is proved to save the computation time by 3∼4 times compared with collaborative filtering.

Recommender systems are a personalized information filtering technology to help customers find the products they would like to purchase. Collaborative filtering is the most successful recommendation technology. Web usage mining and clustering analysis are widely used in the recommendation field. In this paper, we propose several hybrid collaborative filtering-based recommender procedures to address the effect of web usage mining and cluster analysis. Through the experiment with real e-commerce data, it is found that collaborative filtering using web log data can perform recommendation tasks effectively, but using cluster analysis can perform efficiently.

With the development of the e-commerce market, various types of products continue to be released. However, customers face an information overload problem in purchasing decision-making. Therefore, personalized recommendations have become an essential service in providing personalized products to customers. Recently, many studies on GCN-based recommender systems have been actively conducted. Such a methodology can address the limitation in disabling to effectively reflect the interaction between customer and product in the embedding process. However, previous studies mainly use implicit feedback data to conduct experiments. Although implicit feedback data improves the data scarcity problem, it cannot represent customers' preferences for specific products. Therefore, this study proposed a novel model combining explicit and implicit feedback to address such a limitation. This study treats the average ratings of customers and products as the features of customers and products and converts them into a high-dimensional feature vector. Then, this study combines ID embedding vectors and feature vectors in the embedding layer to learn the customer-product interaction effectively. To evaluate recommendation performance, this study used the MovieLens dataset to conduct various experiments. Experimental results showed the proposed model outperforms the state-of-the-art. Therefore, the proposed model in this study can provide an enhanced recommendation service for customers to address the information overload problem.

This paper proposes an enhanced recommendation technique for personalized e-commerce portal analyzing various attitudes of customer. The attitudes are classifies into three types such as "purchasing product", "adding product to shopping cart", and "viewing the product information". We implicitly track customer attitude to estimate the rating of products for recommending products. We classified user groups which have similar preference for each item using implicit user behavior. The preference similarity is estimated using the Cross Correlation Coefficient. Our recommendation technique shows a high degree of accuracy as we use age and gender to group the customers with similar preference. In the experimental section, we show that our method can provide better performance than other traditional recommender system in terms of accuracy.

The prolonged of the Post Corona, many Cosmetic company launched various online services. In this paper, consider about the quality of product recommendation using personal color detecting technology. Using the detecting tool which is most widely used by cosmetic company. we will do a lot of testing with this tool and also testing with color detecting equipment. For precise experimental results, it was conducted in a consistent experimental environment. This experiment can be a foundation that can be well used for the expansion of personalized product recommendation services according to the current image-based skin color measurement.

Recommender systems are a personalized information filtering technology to help customers find the products they would like to purchase. Collaborative filtering is known to be the most successful recommendation technology, but its widespread use has exposed some problems such as sparsity and scalability in the e-business environment. In this paper, we propose a recommendation methodology based on Web usage mining and product taxonomy to enhance the recommendation quality and the system performance of original CF-based recommender systems. Web usage mining populates the rating database by tracking customers' shopping behaviors on the Web, so leading to better quality recommendations. The product taxonomy is used to improve the performance of searching for nearest neighbors through dimensionality reduction of the rating database. Several experiments on real e-commerce data show that the proposed methodology provides higher quality recommendations and better performance than original collaborative filtering methodology.

Recommender systems are a personalized information filtering technology to help customers find the products they would like to purchase. Collaborative filtering (CF) has been known to be the most successful recommendation technology. However its widespread use in e-commerce has exposed two research issues, sparsity and scalability. In this paper, we propose several hybrid recommender procedures based on web usage mining, clustering techniques and collaborative filtering to address these issues. Experimental evaluation of suggested procedures on real e-commerce data shows interesting relation between characteristics of procedures and diverse situations.

This paper proposes a semantic recommendation technique for a personalized e-commerce portal. Semantic recommendation is achieved by utilizing the attributes of products. The semantic similarity of the products is merged with the rating information of the products to provide an accurate recommendation. The recommendation technique also analyzes various attitudes of the customer to evaluate the implicit rating of products. Attitudes are classifies into three types such as "purchasing product", "adding product to shopping cart", and "viewing the product information." We implicitly track customer attitude to estimate the rating of products for recommending products. Also we implement a session validation process to identify the valid sessions that are highly important for giving an accurate recommendation. Our recommendation technique shows a high degree of accuracy as we use age groupings of customers with similar preferences. The experimental section shows that our proposed recommendation method outperforms well known collaborative filtering methods not only for the existing customer, but also for the new user with no previous purchase record.

As artificial intelligence technology advances, personalized recommendation systems using big data have attracted huge attention. In the case of beauty products, product preferences are clearly divided depending on customers' skin types and sensitivity along with individual tastes, so it is necessary to provide customized recommendation services based on accumulated customer data. Therefore, by employing deep learning methods, this study proposes a neural network-based recommendation model utilizing both product search history and context information such as gender, skin types and skin worries of customers. The results show that our model with context information outperforms collaborative filtering-based recommender system models using customer search history.
