Abstract

Aiming at the problem of cold start caused by the addition of new item in the recommendation system, this paper proposed a collaborative filtering recommendation model USPTMF-CFIA based on matrix factorization model, which combined the similarity of item image and category attributes. First, it used the matrix factorization model based on users' preference and time weight to predict and fill the missing item. Then, it used the VGG16 neural network to extract the features of the item images and combined category attributes to calculate the similarity between the new item and the historical items, then got the item's neighbors. Finally, it predicted the new item based on the similarity between the new item and the neighbors, and the first N items with high score were recommended to the correspond user. The experiment on the dataset provided by GroupLens proved that the proposed accuracy rate of this model. The recommended accuracy of this model is 0.006~0.015 higher than the MAP-BPR model, 0.02~0.028 higher than the traditional collaborative filtering model and 0.001~0.003 higher than that of the USPTMF-CFA model without image similarity 0.001~0.002 higher than ACMF model.
