  1. Collaborative Filtering

  2. What is collaborative filtering (CF) ? • The most popular technique for recommender system • Making filtering decisions for an individual user based on the judgments of other users • General Idea • Given an active user u, find friends {u1, … , um} • Recommend new items to the active user based on the opinions of his friends

  3. What is collaborative filtering (CF) ?

  4. Collaborative Filtering Matrix 2 3.5 4 1.5

  5. CF : Intuitions • User similarity • Suppose Jamie and I view similar movies in the past six months … • If Jamie watched “Star Wars”, I will also like it • Item similarity • Since 90% of those who liked “Star Wars” also liked “Independence Day”, and, you liked “star Wars” • You may also like “Independence Day”

  6. Short History of CF • 1992 • GroupLens Project : (Usernet News) 1994 • 1995 • Ringo: music (later Firefly, purchased by Microsoft?) • Bellcore: Video Recommender • 1996 • Recommender Systems Workshop in SIGIR • After 1996 • substantial integration with machine learning, information filtering • Increasing commercial application

  7. Commercial applications –amazon.com • www.amazon.com • Input: One artist/author name

  8. Commercial applications –Amazon.com Search using Recommendations • Output: List of Recommendations • Explore / Refine Recommendations

  9. Commercial applications –Sleeper • Input: Ratings of 10 books for all users • Use of continuous Rating Bar

  10. Commercial applications - Alexa http://www.alexa.com

  11. Commercial applications- Movielens www.movielens.umn.edu

  12. Category of CF • Memory-based approaches • Earlier techniques • Adapted by most commercial websites • Example: Pearson CF Algorithm • Model-based approaches • Hot topic for recent research • More accurate , fast and complicated • Example: Bayesian Clustering Model, Aspect Model

  13. Memory-based Approaches • General Ideas for user-based • Find top K friends for active user a based on user similarity- Sim (a, i) • Make prediction for the active user based on the ratings of those top K friends, Pre(a,i) = f( ratings of K users, i) • Specific approaches differ in • Sim(a,i) -- the distance/similarity between two users • Such as Pearson correlation coefficient and Cosine similarity • Many other possibilities • Pre(a,i) = f( ratings of K users, i)

  14. Step 1 : Find K nearest friends by Pearson CoefficientF Algorithm

  15. Step 2 : Predict user’s rating on item

  16. Pearson CF Algorithm • Pearson correlation coefficient So use the same method we can get Wken-meg=+1.0 . We do not needcalculate Wken-nab,because Nan do not gave mark for Music six.

  17. Pearson CF Algorithm • Predict Ken’s preference on Music 6

  18. Problem of Pearson CF • Data sparseness • Misleading friends

  19. Cluster-based Solution
