Abstract

Nowadays, Internet services and products are increasingly abundant, and efficient and reliable recommender systems become increasingly important and have been widely accepted by users. Item-based collaborative filtering (CF) is one of the most popular techniques for determining recommendations. A common problem of traditional item-based CF approaches is that they only consider ratings of co-rated users when computing item similarities, which are likely to ignore relationships between items and result in unreliable relationships between different items. To improve the quality of recommendation, this paper proposes a new scheme of similarity measurement between items, computing the similarity based on the preference distribution of global users. In this paper, a data model for denoting the relationships among items and an SKL-based item similarities computing approach are proposed. Finally, experimental results show that the proposed approach can make better recommendation results compared with classical item-based CF approaches.
