In this paper, we propose a semantic web approach for personalized book recommendation. Our approach takes advantage of the content-based recommendation and improves its disadvantage that users should input their interesting fields into all book search systems they use. Our approach provides the sharing of users' profile with their interesting fields by enabling user's interesting fields to be described over each book classification ontology of various book information providers. We also provide a middleware that manages users' profiles written in RDF and analizes similarity between user's interesting field and each concept over the book classification ontology. Our approach provide better performance than traditional keyword-based search by sharing the user's profile among book recommendation systems.

In this paper, we propose user contents using behavior and location information on contents on various channels, such as web, IPTV, for contents distribution. With methods to build user and contents profiles, contents using behavior as an implicit user feedback was applied into machine learning procedure for updating user profiles and contents preference. In machine learning procedure, contents-based and collaborative filtering methods were used to analyze user's contents preference. This study proposes contents location information on web sites for final recommendation contents as well. Finally, we refer to a generalized recommender system for personalization. With those methods, more effective and accurate recommendation service can be possible.

Several approaches to recommendation systems have been studied. One of the most successful technologies for building personalization and recommendation systems is collaborative filtering, which is a technique that provides a process of filtering customer information based on such information profiles. Collaborative filtering systems, however, have a sparsity if there is not enough data to recommend. In this paper, we suggest a movie recommendation system, based on the weighted personal propensity and the collaborating filtering system, in order to provide a solution to such sparsity. Furthermore, we assess the system's applicability by using the open database MovieLens, and present a weighted personal propensity framework for improvement in the performance of recommender systems. We successfully come up with a movie recommendation system through the optimal personalization factors.

Collaborative filtering is one of the popular techniques for personalized recommendation in e-commerce. In collaborative filtering, user profiles are usually managed per product category in order to reduce data sparsity. Product diversification of Internet storefronts and multiple product category sales of e-commerce portals require cross-product category usage of user profiles in order to overcome the cold start problem of collaborative filtering. In this paper, we study the feasibility of cross-product category usage of user profiles, and suggest a method to improve recommendation performance of cross-product category user profiling. First, we investigate whether user profiles on a product category can be used to recommend products in other product categories. Furthermore, a way of utilizing user profiles selectively is suggested to increase recommendation performance of cross-product category user profiling. The feasibility of cross-product category user profiling and the usefulness of the proposed method are tested with real click stream data of an Internet storefront which sells multiple product categories including books, music CDs, and DVDs. The experiment results show that user profiles on a product category can be used to recommend products in other product categories. Also, the selective usage of user profiles based on correlations between subcategories of two product categories provides better performance than the whole usage of user profiles.

There are many recommendation systems offer an effort to get better preciseness the information to the users. In order to further improve more accuracy, the social network analysis method which is used to analyze data to community detection in social networks was introduced in the recommendation system and the result shows this method is improving more accuracy. In this paper, we propose a movie recommendation system using social network analysis and normalized discounted cumulative gain with the best accuracy. To estimate the performance, the collaborative filtering using the k nearest neighbor method, the social network analysis with collaborative filtering method and the proposed method are used to evaluate the MovieLens data. The performance outputs show that the proposed method get better the accuracy of the movie recommendation system than any other methods used in this experiment.

Nowadays, recommendation systems (RSs) are applied to all aspects of online life. In order to overcome the problem that individuals who do not meet the constraints need to be regenerated when the many-objective evolutionary algorithm (MaOEA) solves the hybrid recommendation model, this paper proposes a many-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm based on multiple criteria (MaPSO-MC). A generation-based fitness evaluation strategy with diversity enhancement (GBFE-DE) and ISDE⁺ are coupled to comprehensively evaluate individual performance. At the same time, according to the characteristics of the model, the regional optimization has an impact on the individual update, and a many-objective evolutionary strategy based on bacterial foraging (MaBF) is used to improve the algorithm search speed. Experimental results prove that this algorithm has excellent convergence and diversity, and can produce accurate, diverse, novel and high coverage recommendations when solving recommendation models.

In the advent of the twenty-first century, human beings began to closely interact with technology. Today, technology is developing, and as a result, the world wide web (www) has a very important place on the Internet and the significant task is fulfilled by Web services. A lot of Web services are available on the Internet and, therefore, it is difficult to find matching Web services among the available Web services. The recommendation systems can help in fixing this problem. In this paper, our observation was based on the recommended method such as the collaborative filtering (CF) technique which faces some failure from the data sparsity and the cold-start problems. To overcome these problems, we first applied an ontology-based clustering and then the k-nearest neighbor (KNN) algorithm for each separate cluster group that effectively increased the data density using the past user interests. Then, user ratings were predicted based on the model-based approach, such as singular value decomposition (SVD) and the predictions used for the recommendation. The evaluation results showed that our proposed approach has a less prediction error rate with high accuracy after analyzing the existing recommendation methods.

The paper is to build recommendation systems leveraging Deep Learning and Big Data platform, Spark to predict item ratings of the Amazon e-commerce site. Recommendation system in e-commerce has become extremely popular in recent years and it is very important for both customers and sellers in daily life. It means providing the users with products and services they are interested in. Therecommendation systems need users' previous shopping activities and digital footprints to make best recommendation purpose for next item shopping. We developed the recommendation models in Amazon AWS Cloud services to predict the users' ratings for the items with the massive data set of Amazon customer reviews. We also present Big Data architecture to afford the large scale data set for storing and computation. And, we adopted deep learning for machine learning community as it is known that it has higher accuracy for the massive data set. In the end, a comparative conclusion in terms of the accuracy as well as the performance is illustrated with the Deep Learning architecture with Spark ML and the traditional Big Data architecture, Spark ML alone.

Recommendation systems are a prominent approach for users to make informed automated judgments. In terms of movie recommendation systems, there are two methods used; Collaborative filtering, which is based on user similarities; and Content-based filtering which takes into account specific user's activity. However, there are still issues with these two existing methods, and to address those, a combination of collaborative and content-based filtering is employed to produce a more effective system. In addition, various similarity methodologies are used to identify parallels among users. This paper focuses on a survey of the various tactics and methods to find solutions based on the problems of the current recommendation system.

The growth in social media, blogs and restaurant listing directories have led to increasing customer reviews about restaurants, their quality of food items and services available on the internet. These user reviews offer a massive amount of valuable information that can be used for various decision-making purposes. Currently, most food recommendation sites provide recommendation scores about restaurants rather than food items of the restaurant and the provided recommendation scores may be biased since they are calculated only from user reviews listed only in their sites. Usually, people wants a reliable recommendation about foods, not restaurant. In this paper, we present a reliable Korean food items rating method; we first extract food items by applying NER technique to restaurant reviews collected from many Korean restaurant recommendation web sites, blogs and web data. Then, we apply lexicon-based sentiment analysis on collected user reviews and predict people's opinions as sentiment polarity scores (+1 for positive; -1 for negative; 0 for neutral). Finally, by taking average of all calculated polarity scores about a food item, we obtain a rating to individual menu items of the restaurant. The proposed food item rating is more reliable since it does not depend on reviews of only one site.
