What attracts vehicle consumers’ buying:A Saaty scale-based VIKOR (SSC-VIKOR) approach from after-sales textual perspective?
Purpose:
The increasingly booming e-commerce development has stimulated vehicle consumers to express individual reviews through online forum. The purpose of this paper is to probe into the vehicle consumer consumption behavior and make recommendations for potential consumers from textual comments viewpoint.
Design/methodology/approach:
A big data analytic-based approach is designed to discover vehicle consumer consumption behavior from online perspective. To reduce subjectivity of expert-based approaches, a parallel Naïve Bayes approach is designed to analyze the sentiment analysis, and the Saaty scale-based (SSC) scoring rule is employed to obtain specific sentimental value of attribute class, contributing to the multi-grade sentiment classification. To achieve the intelligent recommendation for potential vehicle customers, a novel SSC-VIKOR approach is developed to prioritize vehicle brand candidates from a big data analytical viewpoint.
Findings:
The big data analytics argue that “cost-effectiveness” characteristic is the most important factor that vehicle consumers care, and the data mining results enable automakers to better understand consumer consumption behavior.
Research limitations/implications:
The case study illustrates the effectiveness of the integrated method, contributing to much more precise operations management on marketing strategy, quality improvement and intelligent recommendation.
Originality/value:
Researches of consumer consumption behavior are usually based on survey-based methods, and mostly previous studies about comments analysis focus on binary analysis. The hybrid SSC-VIKOR approach is developed to fill the gap from the big data perspective
Discovering the Impact of Knowledge in Recommender Systems: A Comparative Study
Recommender systems engage user profiles and appropriate filtering techniques
to assist users in finding more relevant information over the large volume of
information. User profiles play an important role in the success of
recommendation process since they model and represent the actual user needs.
However, a comprehensive literature review of recommender systems has
demonstrated no concrete study on the role and impact of knowledge in user
profiling and filtering approache. In this paper, we review the most prominent
recommender systems in the literature and examine the impression of knowledge
extracted from different sources. We then come up with this finding that
semantic information from the user context has substantial impact on the
performance of knowledge based recommender systems. Finally, some new clues for
improvement the knowledge-based profiles have been proposed.Comment: 14 pages, 3 tables; International Journal of Computer Science &

The Shortest Path to Happiness: Recommending Beautiful, Quiet, and Happy Routes in the City
When providing directions to a place, web and mobile mapping services are all
able to suggest the shortest route. The goal of this work is to automatically
suggest routes that are not only short but also emotionally pleasant. To
quantify the extent to which urban locations are pleasant, we use data from a
crowd-sourcing platform that shows two street scenes in London (out of
hundreds), and a user votes on which one looks more beautiful, quiet, and
happy. We consider votes from more than 3.3K individuals and translate them
into quantitative measures of location perceptions. We arrange those locations
into a graph upon which we learn pleasant routes. Based on a quantitative
validation, we find that, compared to the shortest routes, the recommended ones
add just a few extra walking minutes and are indeed perceived to be more
beautiful, quiet, and happy. To test the generality of our approach, we
consider Flickr metadata of more than 3.7M pictures in London and 1.3M in
Boston, compute proxies for the crowdsourced beauty dimension (the one for
which we have collected the most votes), and evaluate those proxies with 30
participants in London and 54 in Boston. These participants have not only rated
our recommendations but have also carefully motivated their choices, providing
insights for future work.Comment: 11 pages, 7 figures, Proceedings of ACM Hypertext 201
User's Privacy in Recommendation Systems Applying Online Social Network Data, A Survey and Taxonomy
Recommender systems have become an integral part of many social networks and
extract knowledge from a user's personal and sensitive data both explicitly,
with the user's knowledge, and implicitly. This trend has created major privacy
concerns as users are mostly unaware of what data and how much data is being
used and how securely it is used. In this context, several works have been done
to address privacy concerns for usage in online social network data and by
recommender systems. This paper surveys the main privacy concerns, measurements
and privacy-preserving techniques used in large-scale online social networks
and recommender systems. It is based on historical works on security,
privacy-preserving, statistical modeling, and datasets to provide an overview
of the technical difficulties and problems associated with privacy preserving
in online social networks.Comment: 26 pages, IET book chapter on big data recommender system
LSGDM Two Stage Consensus Reaching Process for Autocratic Decision Making using Group Recommendations
The decision making is a general and significant action in day-to-day life. In some cases, experts cannot express their preferences using precise value due to inherent unreliability. The utilization of linguistic labels creates expert judgement more informative and consistent for decision making. The group recommendation is considered as a significant factors of e-commerce domain due to their direct impact on profit. The personalized experiments improve the engagement and the count of purchases of the customer when the recommended products are matched to the current interest.In this paper, the Large-Scale Group Decision Making (LSGDM) two stage consensus reaching process is proposed by using three various Amazon real world dataset.This proposed method permits an autocratic decision maker to utilize a different group recommendation for a sequence of decisions at highest level of consensus. The performance of the model is estimated by applying parameters like Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Precision and Recall. The obtained result shows that proposed methodology provides better result while comparing various other methods
Personalised Context Aware Content Relevant Disease Prediction And Diet Recommendation System
Predicting disease is plays an important role in improving the public health. The problem of predicting possible diseases reduce some of the diseases may come in the future. The health recommendation system predicts the disease and recommends the suitable diet and exercises. Context aware recommendation systems produce more relevant recommendations with the help of contextual information. In this paper we have proposed a context aware recommendation system to predict diseases based in the context of the user and recommend a suitable diet and exercises. The experimental results show that the performance of our proposed system is an efficient in predicting the disease and recommending the diet and exercise
