Collaborative Recommendation based on Implication Field

Recently, recommender systems has grown rapidly in both quantity and quality and has attracted many studies aimed at improving their quality. Especially, collaborative fil-tering techniques based on rule mining model combined with statistical implication analysis (SIA) technique also achieved some interesting results. This has shown the potential of SIA to improve the performance of recommender systems. However, it is still not rich and there are several problems to be solved for better results such as the problem of non-binary data processing, dealing with bottleneck case of data partitioning method according to the number of transactions on the very sparse transaction sets during training and testing the model, and not paying attention to exploiting the trend of variation of statistical implication. In order to contribute to solving these problems, the paper focuses on proposing a new data partitioning method, and developing the recommendation model based on equipotential planes mining generated by variation of implication intensity or implication index in the implication field on both binary and non-binary data to improve the recommendations further. Experimental results have shown the success of this new approach through its quality comparison with collaborative filtering recommendation models as well as existing SIA-based ones.
