Modelling socially-influenced conditional preferences over feature values in recommender systems based on factorised collaborative filtering

作者:

Highlights:

• Novel method for modelling conditional preferences over feature values is proposed.

• The social influence on the components of preferences is taken into consideration.

• Extensive experiments and statistical analysis carried out to evaluate our model.

• Our method achieves statistically significant improvements over recent methods.
