Title
An approach for combining content-based and collaborative filters
Abstract
In this work, we apply a clustering tech- nique to integrate the contents of items into the item-based collaborative filtering framework. The group rating information that is obtained from the clustering result provides a way to introduce content in- formation into collaborative recommenda- tion and solves the cold start problem. Extensive experiments have been con- ducted on MovieLens data to analyze the characteristics of our technique. The re- sults show that our approach contributes to the improvement of prediction quality of the item-based collaborative filtering, especially for the cold start problem.
