Abstract

This paper comprehensively investigates and compares the performance of various multi-criteria based item recommendation methods. The development of the methods consists of three main phases: predicting rating per criterion; aggregating rating prediction of all criteria; and generating the top-  item recommendations. The multi-criteria based item recommendation methods are varied and labelled based on what approach is implemented to predict the rating per criterion, i.e., Collaborative Filtering (CF), Content-based (CB), and Hybrid. For the experiments, we generate two variations of datasets to represent the normal and cold-start conditions on the multi-criteria item recommendation system. The empirical analysis suggests that Hybrid and CF are best implemented on the normal and cold-start item conditions, respectively. On the other hand, CB should never be (solely) implemented in a multi-criteria based item recommendation system on any conditions.

Abstract

A multi-criteria collaborative filtering recommendation system allows its users to rate items based on several criteria. Users instinctively have different tendencies in rating items that some of them are quite generous while others tend to be pretty stingy.  Given the diverse rating patterns, implementing a normalization technique in the system is beneficial to reveal the latent relationship within the multi-criteria rating data. This paper analyses and compares the performances of two methods that implement the normalization based multi-criteria collaborative filtering approach. The framework of the method development consists of three main processes, i.e.: multi-criteria rating representation, multi-criteria rating normalization, and rating prediction using a multi-criteria collaborative filtering approach. The developed methods are labelled based on the implemented normalization technique and multi-criteria collaborative filtering approaches, i.e., Decoupling normalization and Multi-Criteria User-based approach (DMCUser) and Decoupling normalization and Multi-Criteria User-based approach (DMCItem). Experiment results using the real-world Yelp Dataset show that DMCItem outperforms DMCUser at most  in terms of Precision and Normalized Discounted Cumulative Gain (NDCG). Though DMCUser can perform better than DMCItem at large , it is still more practical to implement DMCItem rather than DMCUser in a multi-criteria recommendation system since users tend to show more interest to items at the top list.
