Abstract

Predicting user likes in online media and recommending related products to the user would bring great profits to certain service providers. Therefore, prediction approaches have become a popular research topic in both industry and academia over the past decades. However, data sparsity makes many well-known prediction algorithms perform poorly in cold start situation. In this paper, we apply attributes from user profile in social network sites to help recommending user likes in a video sharing site and propose a model to conceptualize unstructured words in the profile attributes into interests vector by knowledge base. Based on the model, we designed a recommendation framework to predict user clicks. Experiment results on dataset show that our approach is an efficient one.
