Abstract:
People’s needs are constantly changing, and the performance of traditional recommendation algorithms is no longer enough to meet the demand. Considering that users’ preferences change with time, the users’ behavior sequence hides the evolution and change law of users’ preferences, so mining the dependence of the users’ behavior sequence is extremely important to predict users’ dynamic preferences. From the perspective of constructing users’ dynamic preferences, this paper proposes a users’ dynamic preference model based on users’ behavior sequences. Firstly, the user’s interest model is divide

Abstract:
In social networks, users can easily share information and express their opinions. Given the huge amount of data posted by many users, it is difficult to search for relevant information. In addition to individual posts, it would be useful if we can recommend groups of people with similar interests. Past studies on user preference learning focused on single-modal features such as review contents or demographic information of users. However, such information is usually not easy to obtain in most social media without explicit user feedback. In this paper, we propose a multimodal feature fusion ap

Abstract:
Web intelligence provides a platform that empowers internet users to determine the most appropriate and best information for their interests. It provides the ability to sense and adapt to the needs and preference of the user. The recent advancements have made it conceivable to capture the users experience and interactions with web. Consequently predicting users behaviors will expedite and enhance browsing experience. This paper proposes an intelligent approach for making the web more powerful by predicting the conduct of individual users. The main goal is to implicitly construct user profiles

Abstract:
Background: Hearing aids today often provide both directional (DIR) and omnidirectional (OMNI) processing options with the currently active mode selected automatically by the device. The most common approach to automatic switching involves “acoustic scene analysis” where estimates of various acoustic properties of the listening environment (e.g., signal-to-noise ratio [SNR], overall sound level) are used as a basis for switching decisions. Purpose: The current study was carried out to evaluate an alternative, “direct-comparison” approach to automatic switching that does not involve assumptions

Twitter's user behaviour data is crucial for studying user patterns and content recommendation. To achieve this goal, the paper first preprocesses a Twitter user dataset obtained from Kaggle. The dataset includes over 40,000 objects in JSON format, focusing on users who tweeted on trending topics and had at least 100 followers and were following at least 100 other accounts. This filtering helps to exclude spam and empty accounts. The study constructs a user-hashtag matrix and applies label encoding technology to convert it into a numerical matrix.

We train these models using user tweets in Twitter, and her reviews and ratings of movies of different genres in Internet movie database (IMDb).
