Text-Based User-kNN: Measuring User Similarity Based on Text Reviews

Abstract: Abstract. This article reports on a modification of the user-kNN algorithm that measures the similarity between users based on the similarity of text reviews, instead of ratings.

We do so by using datasets from two different domains: movies from RottenTomatoes and Audio CDs from Amazon Products. Our results show… Show more

“…reviews, comments) via either word-level text similarity or extracted sentiment. For instance, Terzi et al (2014) proposed TextKNN to measure the similarity between users based on the similarity of text reviews instead of ratings. Pappas and Popescu-Belis (2013) developed a sentiment-aware nearest neighbor model (SANN) for recommendations over TED talks.…”

“…To identify if the tweet is relevant to the event under focus, we investigate the semantic similarity ρ of the previously processed text of the tweet with the name and type of the event. This is achieved by utilising WordNet [36]: a large lexical database of nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs grouped into sets of cognitive synonyms to compute similarity between short texts [37], and the semantic similarity measure described in [38], effectively utilised in [39], [40].…”
