Abstract

Recommender systems make suggestions to users. Collaborative filtering techniques make the predictions by using the ratings on items of other users. In this paper, we have studied item-based and user-based collaborative filtering techniques. We identify the shortcomings of current filtering techniques. The performance of recommender systems was deeply affected by user's rating behavior. We propose some improvements to overcome this limitation. User evaluation has been conducted. Experiment results show that the new algorithms improve the performance of recommender systems significantly.
