Domain of interests clustering algorithm based on users’ preferred topics by GONG Wei-hua1, YANG Liang-huai1, JIN Rong2, DING Wei-long1

“…In order to solve the problem of users’ preferences changing frequently,an iterative computing method was presented to gain the weights of users’ preferences as time goes.A bipartite graph was constructed to show the relations of users’ interests and topic classes.On this base,a novel topic-based clustering（TBC） algorithm was proposed to group the nearest neighbors according to users’ interests,which had changed the usual hard partition method meaning "one or the other" for the clustering items.And the partitioned domains of users’ interests based on multiple topics was also es-tablished by the algorithm,which not only fully profiled users’ interests and the relations of topics indirectly reflected in different domains,but also could adaptively track the changes of users’ interests.Experimental results show that TBC method has better declustering outcome of users’ interests than both the traditional K-Means algorithm and FCM method belonged to the soft clustering,and the TBC algorithm also has higher recommendation quality and better efficiency in personalized recommender services.…”

Evolution of Electoral Preferences for a Regime of Three Political Parties by María Guadalupe Medina Guevara, Héctor Vargas Rodríguez, Pedro Basilio Espinoza Padilla, José Luis Gozález Solís

“…In this article, we use a discrete system to study the opinion dynamics regarding the electoral preferences of a nontendentious group of agents. To measure the level of preference, a continuous opinion space is used, in which the preference (opinion) can evolve from any political option, to any other; for a regime of three parties, a circle is the convenient space. …”

Learner preferences prediction with mixture embedding of knowledge and behavior graph by Xiaoguang LI, Lei GONG, Xiaoli LI, Xin ZHANG, Ge YU

“…To solve the problems of inaccurate prediction of learner preference and insufficient utilization of structural information in the knowledge recommendation model, for the knowledge structure and learner behavior structure in the learner’s preference prediction model, the model of learner preferences predication with mixture embedding of knowledge and behavior graph was proposed.First, considering using graph convolution network (GCN) to fit structural information, GCN was extended to knowledge graph and behavior graph, the purpose of which was to obtain learners’ overall learning pattern and individual learning pattern.Then, the difference between knowledge structure and behavior structure was used to fit learners’ individual preferences, and recurrent neural network was used to encode and decode learners’ preferences to obtain the distribution of learners’ preference distribution.The experimental results on the real datasets demonstrate that the proposed model has a good effect on predicting learner preferences.…”
