MDER: Multi-Dimensional Event Recommendation in Social Media Context

Abstract

Events represent a tipping point that affects users’ opinions and vary depending upon their popularity from local to international. Indeed, social media offer users platforms to express their opinions and commitments to events that attract them. However, owing to the volume of data, users are encountering a difficulty to accede to the preferred events according to their features that are stored in their social network profiles. To surmount this limitation, multiple event recommendation systems appeared. Nevertheless, these systems use a limited number of event dimensions and user’s features. Besides, they consider users’ features stored in a single user’s profile and disregard the semantic concept. In this research, an approach for multi-dimensional event recommendation is set forward to recommend events to users resting on several event dimensions (engagement, location, topic, time and popularity) and some user’s features (demographic data, position and user’s/friend’s interests) stored in multi-user’s profiles by considering the semantic relationships between user’s features, specifically user’s interests. The performance of our approach was assessed using error rate measurements (mean absolute error, root mean squared error and cross-validation). Experiment that results on real-world event data sets confirmed that our approach recommends events that fit the user more than the previous approaches with the lowest error rate values.

Deep Learning Enabled Social Media Recommendation Based on User Comments

Accordingly, a great deal of exploration has been done on the unwavering quality of mechanised microblogging; however, the greater part of them offer various ideas of dependability [10].…”
