Recommender systems based on sentiment analysis become challenging due to the presence of enormous data available over the internet. With the lack of proper data cleaning and analysis methods, existing machine learning (ML) techniques fail to generate accurate recommendations. To overcome this issue, this paper proposes a Light Deep Learning (LightDL)-based recommender system that uses Twitter-based reviews. First, the data is collected from Twitter and cleaned by subsequent data cleaning processes. Then, this pre-processed data is fed into the LightDL model, which learns the important features like hashtags, unigrams, multigrams, etc. from each piece of data. Here, we have learned about four groups of features, including semantic features, syntactic features, symbolic features, and tweet-based features. Finally, the data is classified into positive, negative, and neutral categories according to the learned features. On the basis of classified sentiment, the review is generated to the users. Finally, the model is evaluated in terms of accuracy, precision, recall, f-measure, and error rate through extensive experiments in Matlab. The proposed LightDL model outperforms in all performance measures; specifically, it achieves 95% accuracy for the Twitter dataset. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Collaborative filtering (CF), one of the most famous methods for building recommendation systems, recommends relevant items to users or predicting ratings of users' unknown items. Matrix factorization (MF) models are well-known model to deal with predicting the rating problem. However, the recommendation system based on matrix factorization is hard to keep up with the rapidly changing real-world data. When ratings on new users or new items come, the static model can not fit well on new data. As a consequence, if the current thing does not apply, the prediction accuracy will lose. In addition, it is a significant computation cost to rebuild the model on the whole data. To capture these changes, in this paper, we construct an online-and-offline Collaborative Filtering with a multi-method model to improve the traditional CF method, called Online SGD with Offline Knowledge (OSGDO for short). Besides, we propose a real-time incremental recommendation framework on Apache Flink, which is a scalable stream and batch data processing platform. Meanwhile, we implement our proposed method on our proposed framework. Our method proves to be good at online training when new observations arrive. And the results of experiments show that the dynamic training process we proposed is more efficient than rebuild the model on all the data. At the same time, our algorithm performs well in practice and can achieve impressive accuracy quickly when it is tested with the well-known data sets of MoviesLens and Netflix.

We consider techniques based on artificial neural networks for combining collaborative (social) and content information in a recommender system in order to enhance recommendation performance. We find that the recommendation quality achieved by a feedforward multilayer perceptron network operating on combined collaborative and content-based information (preprocessed using the singular value decomposition) is statistically significantly better than that of a network that is provided with the collaborative data alone, assuming that dimensionality reduction is performed on the collaborative and content-based data components separately. We propose a mixture of attribute experts neural network architecture that exploits the natural division between content and social information in order to reduce the number of network connections, resulting in more efficient training and recommendation than a standard fully connected network. We characterize the set of functions that can be expressed by mixture of attribute experts networks. The top 3 precision achieved by a recommender system based on our mixture of attribute experts architecture is superior to that of a purely collaborative system at a strong statistical significance level (P< 0.01). A random restarting technique reduces the average running time without affecting recommendation precision. CR Categories and Subject Descriptors.
