Published: 25 August 2016 Publication History

Editorial Notes

NOTICE OF CONCERN: ACM has received evidence that casts doubt on the integrity of the peer review process for the ICIA 2016 Conference. As a result, ACM is issuing a Notice of Concern for all papers published and strongly suggests that the papers from this Conference not be cited in the literature until ACM's investigation has concluded and final decisions have been made regarding the integrity of the peer review process for this Conference.

Abstract

This paper introduces a novel architecture for a new user recommendation system which is based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm and User Access Based Ranking (UABR) approach. The Recommendation System (RS) is an efficient tool for providing the relevant pages to the users. A vital issue for the RS that has enormously captured the attention of researchers is the cold-start problem. This issue is related to recommendations for new users. For new users, the system does not have data about their preferences in order to make recommendations. We proposed a technique with the swarm intelligence approach of Particle Swarm Optimization in combination with User access based ranking algorithm for the new user recommendation. The PSO algorithm is applied to user grouping. Using this approach, users with similar searching travels are gathered into the same cluster. Recommendations for new user are produced through the user access based ranking algorithm. The results of experiments exhibits that the proposed strategy can effectively enhance the quality of recommendation with the better precision, recall and F_Score values.
