Abstract

In this paper, we present a microblog recommendation algorithm based on multi-tag correlation. Firstly, a tag retrieval strategy is designed to add tags for unlabeled users, the initial user-tag matrix is then constructed and user-tag weights are set. In order to represent user interests accurately, we fully investigate the associations between the tags. Both inner and outer correlation between tags are defined to conquer the problem of sparsity of user-tag matrix. The user interests can then be decided and microblogs can be recommended to users. Experimental results show that the algorithm is effective for microblog recommendation.
