The recommendation system is a method for helping consumers to find products that fit their preferences. However, recommendations that are merely based on user preference are no longer satisfactory. Consumers expect recommendations that are novel, unexpected, and relevant. It requires the development of a serendipity recommendation system that matches the serendipity data character. However, there are still debates among researchers about the available common definition of serendipity. Therefore, our study proposes a work to identify serendipity data's character by directly using serendipity data ground truth from the famous Movielens dataset. The serendipity data identification is based on a distance-based approach using collaborative filtering and k-means clustering algorithms. Collaborative filtering is used to calculate the similarity value between data, while k-means is used to cluster the collaborative filtering data. The resulting clusters are used to determine the position of the serendipity cluster. The result of this study shows that the average distance between the recommended movie cluster and the serendipity movie cluster is 0.85 units, which is neither the closest cluster nor the farthest cluster from the recommended movie cluster.

The semantic diversity of policies written by people with different IT literacy to achieve certain network security or performance goals created ambiguity to otherwise straightforward solution implementations. In this project, an intent-aware solution recommender is designed to decode semantic cues in network policies written by various demographics for robust solution recommendations. A novel policy analyzer is designed to extract the intrinsic networking intents from ICT policies to provide context-specific solution recommendations. A custom network-aware intent recognizer is trained on a small keywords-to-intents dataset annotated by domain experts using NLP algorithms in AWS comprehend. The bin-of-words model is then used to classify sentences in the policies into predicted ‘intent' class. A collaborative filtering recommendation system using crowd-sourced ground-truth is designed to suggest optimal architecting solutions to achieve the requirements outlined in ICT policies.

In the process of web service recommendation, the prediction accuracy of Web Service missing Quality of Service (QoS) value will have an important impact on the rationality of service recommendation. Therefore, combined with spatiotemporal similarity perception, this paper proposes a new web service QoS collaborative filtering recommendation algorithm. This paper designs the framework of web service recommendation system from the perspective of QoS collaborative prediction, and gives the definition of related parameter set. Aiming at the problem that some services in the traditional Top-k algorithm are not similar to the target services, the spatial-temporal similarity perception combined with similar weight is used to predict the missing data to improve the prediction accuracy. In this paper, the calculation process of the algorithm is given through a simple example. The effectiveness of the algorithm is verified by the experimental results.

Recommender rystem (RS) is created to solve the problem by recommending some items among a huge selection of items that will be useful for the e-commerce users. RS prevents the users from being flooded by information that is irrelevant for them.Unlike information retrieval (IR) systems, the RS system's goal is to present information to the users that is accurate and preferably useful to them. Too much focus on accuracy in RS may lead to an overspecialization problem, which will decrease its effectiveness. Therefore, the trend in RS research is focusing beyond accuracy methods, such as serendipity. Serendipity can be described as an unexpected discovery that is useful. Since the concept of a recommendation system is still evolving today, formalizing the definition of serendipity in a recommendation system is very challenging.One known subjective factor of serendipity is curiosity. While some researchers already addressed curiosity factor, it is found that the relationships between various serendipity component as perceived by the users and their curiosity levels is still yet to be researched. In this paper, the method to determine user curiosity model by considering the variation of rated items was presented, then relation to serendipity components using existing user feedback data was validated. The finding showed that the curiosity model was related to some user-perceived values of serendipity, but not all. Moreover, it also had positive effect on broadening the user preference.

This research proposes the Top-k Items Recommendation System which uses clustering techniques based on memory-based collaborative filtering technique. Currently, data sparsity and quantity of system are problems in memory-based collaborative filtering technique. We offer recommend or show some items set for user’s preference.  In this research, we propose methods for recommended items set to user preference on data sparsity, movie lens datasets (1M) consisting of 671 users and 163,949 product items were used by determining the preference level between 1 and 5 and user satisfaction levels of all 98,903 items being build and test the models. Methods was divided into three parts included 1) Simple Agent Module 2) Neighbor Filtering and 3) Prediction and Recommend. Simple clustering was used to create a system to provide suggestions for sparsity data. Datasets obtained from clustering represented the sample agent of dataset to being create the recommendation system. Datasets were divided into two categories, 1) Traditional Data (TD) and 2) Statistic Data (SD), and each dataset clustered by k-means clustering. The experimental results demonstrated that the number of item types in the system were recommended in the TD and Euclidean (DIS). DIS was used to find the nearest value in TD for the item list recommendation to active users in the system with the a lot of number choice of recommendation system.

Recommendation system for tourist spots has very high potential value including social and economic benefits. The traditional clustering algorithms were usually used to build a recommendation system. However, clustering algorithms have the risk on falling into local minimums, which may decrease the final recommendation performance heavily. Few works focused their research on tourist spots recommendation and few recommendation systems consider the population attributes information for fitting the user implicit preference. To address the problem, we focused our research work on designing a novel recommendation system for tourist spots. First a new dataset named “Smart Travel” is created for the following experiments. Then hierarchical sampling statistics (HSS) model is used to acquire the user preference for different population attributes. A new recommendation list named LA is generated in turn by fitting the excavated the user preference. More importantly, SVD++ algorithm rather than those traditional clustering algorithms is used to predict the user ratings. And a new recommendation list named LB is generated in turn on the basis of rating predictions. Finally, the two lists LA and LB are fused together to boost the final recommendation performance. Experimental results demonstrate that the mean precision, mean recall, and mean F1 values of the proposed recommendation system improve about 7.5%, 6.2%, and 6.5%, respectively, compared to the best competitor. The novel recommendation system is especially better at recommending a group of tourist spots, which means it has higher practical value.

: The immense growth of information has led to the wide usage of recommender systems for retrieving relevant information. One of the widely used methods for recommendation is collaborative filtering. However, such methods suffer from two problems, scalability and sparsity. In the proposed research, the two issues of collaborative filtering are addressed and a cluster-based recommender system is proposed. For the identification of potential clusters from the underlying network, Shapley value concept is used, which divides users into different clusters. After that, the recommendation algorithm is performed in every respective cluster. The proposed system recommends an item to a specific user based on the ratings of the item’s different attributes. Thus, it reduces the running time of the overall algorithm, since it avoids the overhead of computation involved when the algorithm is executed over the entire dataset. Besides, the security of the recommender system is one of the major concerns nowadays. Attackers can come in the form of ordinary users and introduce bias in the system to force the system function that is advantageous for them. In this paper, we identify different attack models that could hamper the security of the proposed cluster-based recommender system. The efficiency of the proposed research is validated by conducting experiments on student dataset.

Many small and medium enterprises (SMEs) want to introduce recommendation services to boost sales, but they need to have sufficient amounts of data to introduce these recommendation services. This study proposes an extrapolative collaborative filtering (ECF) system that does not directly share data among SMEs but improves recommendation performance for small and medium-sized companies that lack data through the extrapolation of data, which can provide a magical experience to users. Previously, recommendations were made utilizing only data generated by the merchant itself, so it was impossible to recommend goods to new users. However, our ECF system provides appropriate recommendations to new users as well as existing users based on privacy-preserved payment transaction data. To accomplish this, PP2Vec using Word2Vec was developed by utilizing purchase information only, excluding personal information from payment company data. We then compared the performances of single-merchant models and multi-merchant models. For the merchants with more data than SMEs, the performance of the single-merchant model was higher, while for the SME merchants with fewer data, the multi-merchant model’s performance was higher. The ECF System proposed in this study is more suitable for the real-world business environment because it does not directly share data among companies. Our study shows that AI (artificial intelligence) technology can contribute to the sustainability and viability of economic systems by providing high-performance recommendation capability, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises and start-ups.

The purpose of POI group recommendation is to generate a recommendation list of locations for a group of users. Most of the current studies first conduct personal recommendation and then use recommendation strategies to integrate individual recommendation results. Few studies consider the divergence of groups. To improve the precision of recommendations, we propose a POI group recommendation method based on collaborative filtering with intragroup divergence in this paper. Firstly, user preference vector is constructed based on the preference of the user on time and category. Furthermore, a computation method similar to TF-IDF is presented to compute the degree of preference of the user to the category. Secondly, we establish a group feature preference model, and the similarity of the group and other users’ feature preference is obtained based on the check-ins. Thirdly, the intragroup divergence of POIs is measured according to the POI preference of group members and their friends. Finally, the preference rating of the group for each location is calculated based on a collaborative filtering method and intragroup divergence computation, and the top-ranked score of locations are the recommendation results for the group. Experiments have been conducted on two LBSN datasets, and the experimental results on precision and recall show that the performance of the proposed method is superior to other methods.
