Accurate web recommendations based on profile-specific url-predictor neural networks

Published: 19 May 2004 Publication History

Abstract

We present a Context Ultra-Sensitive Approach based on two-step Recommender systems (CUSA-2-step-Rec). Our approach relies on a committee of profile-specific neural networks. This approach provides recommendations that are accurate and fast to train because only the URLs relevant to a specific profile are used to define the architecture of each network. We compare the proposed approach with collaborative filtering showing that our approach achieves higher coverage and precision while being faster, and requiring lower main memory at recommendation time. While most recommenders are inherently context sensitive, our approach is context ultra-sensitive because a different recommendation model is designed for each profile separately.
