Abstract

Recommender systems provide users with product information and suggestions, which has gradually become an important research tool in e-commerce IT technology, which has attracted a lot of attention of researchers. Collaborative filtering recommendation technology has been the most successful recommendation technology so far, but there are two major problems-recommendation quality and scalability. At present, research at home and abroad mainly focuses on recommendation quality, and there is less discussion on scalability. The scalability problem is that as the size of the system increases, the response time of the system increases to a point where users cannot afford it. Existing solutions often result in a significant drop in recommendation quality while reducing recommendation response time. In this paper, the clustering analysis subsystem based on the genetic algorithm is innovatively introduced into the traditional collaborative filtering recommendation system, and its design and implementation are given. In addition, when obtaining the nearest neighbors, only the clustered users of the target user are searched, making it a collaborative filtering recommender system based on genetic clustering. The experimental results show that the response time of the traditional collaborative filtering recommender system increases linearly with the increase in the number of users while the response time of the collaborative filtering recommender system based on genetic clustering remains unchanged with the increase in the number of users. On the other hand, the recommendation quality of the collaborative filtering recommender system based on genetic clustering is basically not degraded compared with that of the traditional collaborative filtering recommender system. Therefore, the collaborative filtering recommender system based on genetic clustering can effectively solve the scalability problem of the collaborative filtering recommender system.
