Abstract
The personalized news recommendation has been very popular in the news
recommendation field. In most research, the picture information in the news is ignored, but
the information conveyed to the users through pictures is more intuitive and more likely to
affect the users’ reading interests than the one in the textual form. Therefore, in this paper, a
model that combines images and texts in the news is proposed. In this model, the new tags
are extracted from the images and texts in the news, and based on these new tags, an adaptive
tag (AT) algorithm is proposed. The AT algorithm selects the tags the user is interested in
based on the user feedback. In particular, the AT algorithm can predict tags that a user may
be interested in with the help of the tag correlation graph without any user feedback. The
proposed AT algorithm is verified by experiments. The experimental results verified the AT
algorithm regarding three evaluation indexes F1-score (F1), area under curve (AUC) and
mean reciprocal rank (MRR). The recommended effect of the proposed algorithm is found
to be better than those of the various baseline algorithms on real-world datasets.
