Abstract

Point-of-interest (POI) recommendation services are growing in popularity due to the choice overloading and overwhelming information in modern life. However, frequent data leakage and hacking attacks are reducing people’s confidence. The awareness of privacy issues is multiplying among both the customers and service providers. This paper proposes a localized POI recommendation scheme combined with clustering techniques and introduces the concept of “virtual users” to protect user privacy without sacrificing too much accuracy.
