Abstract
Collaborative filtering is a commonly
used method to reduce information overload. It is
widely used in recommendation systems due to its simplicity. In
traditional collaborative filtering,
recommendations are produced based on similarities among users/items. In this approach, the most correlated k neighbors are determined, and a prediction is
computed for each user/item by utilizing this neighborhood. During
recommendation process, a predefined k
value as a number of neighbors is used for prediction processes. In this paper, we analyze the effect of
selecting different k values for each user or item. For this purpose, we generate a
model that determines k values for
each user or item at the off-line time. Empirical outcomes show that using the
dynamic k values during the k-nn
algorithm leads to more favorable recommendations compared to a constant k value.
