Abstract
- Recommendation systems aim to predict users interests and recommend items most likely to interest them. In this paper, we propose a new intelligent recommender system that combines collaborative filtering (CF) with the popular unsupervised machine learning algorithm K-means clustering. Also, we use certain user demographic attributes such as the gender and age to create segmented user profiles, when items (movies) are clustered by genre attributes using K-means and users are classified based on the preference of items and the genres they prefer to watch. To recommend items to an active user, Collaborative Filtering approach then is applied to the cluster where the user belongs. Following the experimentation for well known movies, we show that the proposed system satisfies the predictability of the CF algorithm in GroupLens. In addition, our proposed system improves the performance and time response speed of the traditional collaborative Filtering technique and the Content-Based technique too. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
