A Case-Based Reasoning Approach to Collaborative Filtering

. Advances in Case-Based Reasoning, (2000)

Abstract

Collaborative filtering systems make recommendations based on the accumulation of ratings by many users. The process has a case-based reasoning flavor: recommendations are generated by looking at the behavior of other users who are considered similar.However, the features associated with a user are semantically weak compared with those used by CBR systems. This researchexamines multi- dimensional or semantic ratings in which a system gets information about the reason behind a preference. Experiments show that metrics in which thesemantic meaning of each rating is taken into account have markedly superior performance than simpler techniques.
