This paper considers current personalized recommendation approaches based on computational social systems and then discusses their advantages and application environments. The most widely used recommendation algorithm, personalized advice based on collaborative filtering, is selected as the primary research focus. Some improvements in its application performance are analyzed. First, for the calculation of user similarity, the introduction of computational social system attributes can help to determine users’ neighbors more accurately. Second, computational social system strategies can be adopted to penalize popular items. Third, the network community, identity, and trust can be combined as there is a close relationship. Therefore, this paper proposes a new method that uses a computational social system, including a trust model based on community relationships, to improve the user similarity calculation accuracy to enhance personalized recommendation. Finally, the improved algorithm in this paper is tested on the online reading website dataset. The experimental results show that the enhanced collaborative filtering algorithm performs better than the traditional algorithm.

The recommendation algorithm is a very important and challenging issue for a personal recommender system. The collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm is one of the most popular and effective recommendation algorithms. However, the traditional collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm does not fully consider the impact of popular items and user characteristics on the recommendation results. To solve these problems, an improved collaborative filtering algorithm is proposed, which is based on the Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) method and user characteristics. In the proposed algorithm, an improved TF-IDF method is used to calculate the user similarity on the basis of rating data first. Secondly, the multi-dimensional characteristics information of users is used to calculate the user similarity by a fuzzy membership method. Then, the above two user similarities are fused based on an adaptive weighted algorithm. Finally, some experiments are conducted on the movie public data set, and the experimental results show that the proposed method has better performance than that of the state of the art.

The traditional collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm has the defects of sparse score matrix, weak scalability and user interest deviation, which lead to the low efficiency of algorithm and low accuracy of score prediction. Aiming at the above problems, this paper proposed a time-weighted collaborative filtering algorithm based on improved Mini Batch K-Means clustering. Firstly, the algorithm selected the Pearson correlation coefficient to improve the Mini Batch K-Means clustering, and used the improved Mini Batch K-Means algorithm to cluster the sparse scoring matrix, calculated the user interest score to complete the filling of the sparse matrix. Then, considering the influence of user interest drift with time, the algorithm introduced the Newton cooling time-weighted to improve user similarity. And then calculated user similarity based on the filled score matrix, which helped to get the last predicted score of unrated items The experimental results show that, compared with the traditional collaborative filtering algorithms, the mean absolute error of Proposed improved algorithm is d, and the Precision, Recall and F1 value of MBKT-CF also get a large improvement, which has a higher rating prediction accuracy.

Firstly, this paper designs the process of personalized recommendation method based on knowledge graph, and constructs user interest model. Second, the traditional personalized recommendation algorithms are studied and their advantages and disadvantages are analyzed. Finally, this paper focuses on the combination of knowledge graph and collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm. They are effective to solve the problem where [Formula: see text] value is difficult to be determined in the clustering process of traditional collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm as well as data sparsity and cold start, utilizing the ample semantic relation in knowledge graph. If we use RDF data, which is distributed by the E and P (Exploration and Development) database based on the petroleum E and P, to verify the validity of the algorithm, the result shows that collaborative filtering algorithm based on knowledge graph can build the users’ potential intentions by knowledge graph. It is enlightening to query the information of users. In this way, it expands the mind of users to accomplish the goal of recommendation. In this paper, a collaborative filtering algorithm based on domain knowledge atlas is proposed. By using knowledge graph to effectively classify and describe domain knowledge, the problems are solved including clustering and the cold start in traditional collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm. The better recommendation effect has been achieved.

The collaborative filtering (CF) approach is one of the most successful personalized recommendation methods so far, which is employed by the majority of personalized recommender systems to predict users’ preferences or interests. The basic idea of CF is that if users had the same interests in the past they will also have similar tastes in the future. In general, the traditional CF may suffer the following problems: (1) The recommendation quality of CF based system is greatly affected by the sparsity of data. (2) The traditional CF is relatively difficult to adapt the situation that users’ preferences always change over time. (3) CF based approaches are used to recommend similar items to a user ignoring the user’s demand for variety. In this paper, to solve the above problems we build a new user-user covariance matrix to replace the traditional CF’s user-user similarity matrix. Compared with the user-user similarity matrix, the user-user covariance matrix introduces the user-user covariance to finely describe the changing trends of users’ interests. Furthermore, we propose an enhancing collaborative filtering method based on the user-user covariance matrix. The experimental results show that the proposed method can significantly improve the diversity of recommendation results and ensure the good recommendation precision.

Nowadays personalized recommendation algorithm of e-commerce can hardly meet the needs of users as an ever-increasing number of users and items in personalized recommender system has brought about sparsity of user-item rating matrix and the emergence of more and more new users has threatened recommender system quality. This paper puts forward a pre-filled collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm based on matrix factorization, pre-filling user-item matrixes by matrix factorization and building nearest-neighbor models according to new user profile information, thus mitigating the influence of matrix sparsity and new users and improving the accuracy of recommender system. The experimental results suggest that this algorithm is more precise and effective than the traditional one under the condition of extremely sparse user-item rating matrix.

Recommender systems are becoming a popular and important set of personalization techniques that assist individual users with navigating through the rapidly growing amount of information. A good recommender system should be able to not only find out the objects preferred by users, but also help users in discovering their personalized tastes. The former corresponds to high accuracy of the recommendation, while the latter to high diversity. A big challenge is to design an algorithm that provides both highly accurate and diverse recommendation. Traditional recommendation algorithms only take into account the contributions of similar users, thus, they tend to recommend popular items for users ignoring the diversity of recommendations. In this paper, we propose a recommendation algorithm by considering both the effects of similar and dissimilar users under the framework of collaborative filtering. Extensive analyses on three datasets, namely MovieLens, Netflix and Amazon, show that our method performs much better than the standard collaborative filtering algorithm for both accuracy and diversity.

Collaborative filtering (CF) is the most widely used and successful personalized recommendation technology in web usage mining. The traditional collaborative filtering algorithm based on user static evaluation of the item's neighbour to predict changes of the users’ interests, however, the user’s interest will make a difference over time. Taking the dynamic changes the user’s interest into account in the process, this paper presents a dynamic collaborative filtering recommendation method based on improved ant colony algorithm (EACF). Improved ant colony algorithm takes into account the user access time and access frequency, which can be more representative of the true interests of users. When generating the recommendation, this method not only takes into account the item’s score, but also will take into account intensity of “interest pheromone” on each item. Experimental results show that the EACF can significantly improve the prediction accuracy of the recommendation system compared with traditional CF.
