Abstract Explainable recommendation systems deal with the problem of ‘Why’. Besides providing the user with the recommendation, it is also explained why such an object is being recommended. It helps to improve trustworthiness, effectiveness, efficiency, persuasiveness, and user satisfaction towards the system. To recommend the relevant information with an explanation to the user is required. Existing systems provide the top-k recommendation options to the user based on ratings and reviews about the required object but unable to explain the matched-attribute-based recommendation to the user. A framework is proposed to fetch the most specific information that matches the user requirements based on… More >

Abstract In the context of the continuous development of the Internet, crowdsourcing has received continuous attention as a new cooperation model based on the relationship between enterprises, the public and society. Among them, a reasonably designed recommendation algorithm can recommend a batch of suitable workers for crowdsourcing tasks to improve the final task completion quality. Therefore, this paper proposes a crowdsourcing recommendation framework based on workers’ influence (CRBI). This crowdsourcing framework completes the entire process design from task distribution, worker recommendation, and result return through processes such as worker behavior analysis, task characteristics construction, and cost optimization. In this paper, a… More >
