A Network Science and Document Similarity based Hybrid Job Recommendation System

Tööde soovitussüsteemid kasutavad erinevaid andmeallikaid lõppkasutajale parema sisu tagamiseks. Hästi toimiva soovitussüsteemi arendamine nõuab keerulisi hübriidseid lähenemisi sarnasuse kujutamisele põhinedes töökuulutuste ja resümeede sisudele ja nendevahelistele interaktsioonidele. Antud töö tulemina arendati efektiivne võrgul baseeruv töökohtade soovitussüsteem, mis kasutab Personalized PageRank algoritmi töökohtade järjestamiseks põhinedes tööotsija resümee ja töökuulutuse kui tekstiliste dokumentide sarnasustele ning eelnevatele kasutaja ja töökuulutuste vahelistele interaktsioonidele.Meie lähenemine saavutas 50%-lise saagise ja tekitas online A/B testi jooksul rohkem kandideerimisi kui eelmised algoritmid.Job recommendation systems mainly use different sources of data in order to give the better content for the end user. Developing the well-performing system requires complex hybrid approaches of representing similarity based on the content of job postings and resumes as well as interactions between them. We develop an efficient hybrid network-based job recommendation system which uses Personalized PageRank algorithm in order to rank vacancies for the users based on the similarity between resumes and job posts as textual documents, along with previous interactions of users with vacancies. Our approach achieved the recall of 50% and generated more applies for the jobs during the online A/B test than previous algorithms

Multiobjective e-commerce recommendations based on hypergraph ranking

© 2018 Recommender systems are emerging in e-commerce as important promotion tools to assist customers to discover potentially interesting items. Currently, most of these are single-objective and search for items that fit the overall preference of a particular user. In real applications, such as restaurant recommendations, however, users often have multiple objectives such as group preferences and restaurant ambiance. This paper highlights the need for multi-objective recommendations and provides a solution using hypergraph ranking. A general User–Item–Attribute–Context data model is proposed to summarize different information resources and high-order relationships for the construction of a multipartite hypergraph. This study develops an improved balanced hypergraph ranking method to rank different types of objects in hypergraph data. An overall framework is then proposed as a guideline for the implementation of multi-objective recommender systems. Empirical experiments are conducted with the dataset from a review site Yelp.com, and the outcomes demonstrate that the proposed model performs very well for multi-objective recommendations. The experiments also demonstrate that this framework is still compatible for traditional single-objective recommendations and can improve accuracy significantly. In conclusion, the proposed multi-objective recommendation framework is able to handle complex and changing demands for e-commerce customers

Combination of web usage, content and structure information for diverse web mining applications in the tourism context and the context of users with disabilities

188 p.This PhD focuses on the application of machine learning techniques for behaviourmodelling in different types of websites. Using data mining techniques two aspects whichare problematic and difficult to solve have been addressed: getting the system todynamically adapt to possible changes of user preferences, and to try to extract theinformation necessary to ensure the adaptation in a transparent manner for the users,without infringing on their privacy. The work in question combines information of differentnature such as usage information, content information and website structure and usesappropriate web mining techniques to extract as much knowledge as possible from thewebsites. The extracted knowledge is used for different purposes such as adaptingwebsites to the users through proposals of interesting links, so that the users can get therelevant information more easily and comfortably; for discovering interests or needs ofusers accessing the website and to inform the service providers about it; or detectingproblems during navigation.Systems have been successfully generated for two completely different fields: thefield of tourism, working with the website of bidasoa turismo (www.bidasoaturismo.com)and, the field of disabled people, working with discapnet website (www.discapnet.com)from ONCE/Tecnosite foundation
