An overlapping clustering approach for precision, diversity and novelty-aware recommendations

作者:

Highlights:

• Scalability is improved using an overlapped clustering.

• Clusters of diverse and similar members are identified using a genetic algorithm.

• Recommendation relevance and diversity trade-off is controlled using a new encoding.

• Our approach improves accuracy, coverage, and novelty of recommendations.

• Experimentations on real-world datasets.
