Abstract

Recommender systems have become a prevalent tool to cope with the information overload problem. The most well-known recommendation technique is collaborative filtering (CF), whereby a user’s preference can be predicted by her like-minded users. Data sparsity and cold start are two inherent and severe limitations of CF.
