A predominant approach to CF is rating prediction recommender algorithm, aiming to predict a user's rating for those items which were not rated yet by the user. However, with the increasing number of items and users, thedata is sparse.It is difficult to detectlatent closely relation among the items or users for predicting the user behaviors. In this paper,we enhance the rating prediction approach leading to substantial improvement of prediction accuracy by categorizing according to the genres of movies. Then the probabilities that users are interested in the genres are computed to integrate the prediction of each genre cluster. A novel probabilistic approach based on the sentiment analysis of the user reviews is also proposed to give intuitional explanations of why an item is recommended.To test the novel recommendation approach, a new corpus of user reviews on movies obtained from the Internet Movies Database(IMDB) has been generated. Experimental results show that the proposed framework is effective and achieves a better prediction performance.展开更多

This paper analyzed the feasibility of using an MGM(1,N) model in grey system theory to predict planing craft motion and carried out the numerical simulation experiment. According to the characteristics of planing craft motion, a recurrence formula was proposed of the parameter matrix of an MGMfl,N) model. Using this formula, data can be updated in real-time without increasing computational complexity significantly. The results of numerical simulation show that using an MGM(1,N) model to predict planing motion is feasible and useful for prediction. So the method proposed in this study can reflect the planing craft motion mechanism successfully, and has rational and effective functions of forecasting and analyzing trends.展开更多

It integrates the case-based reasoning (CBR) with adaptive par- ticle swarm optimization (PSO). The nmnber of nearest neighbors and the weighted features vector are optimized online using the adaptive PSO to improve the prediction accuracy of CBR. The adaptive inertia weight and mutation operation are used to overcome the premature convergence of the PSO. The proposed method is validated a compared with the basic weighted CBR. The results show that the proposed model has higher prediction accuracy and better performance than the basic CBR model.展开更多

In order to possess the among-plot variability, we propose the method- ology of stochastic differential equations that is derived from the standard deterministic ordinary differential equation by adding the process variability to the growth dynamic. Age-diameter varying height model was deduced using a two-dimensional stochastic Gompertz shape process. Another focus of the article is the investigation of normal cop- ula procedure, when the tree diameter and height are governed by univariate stochastic Gompertz shape processes. The advantage of the stochastic differential equation method- ology is that it analyzes a residual variability, corresponding to measurements error, and an individual variability to represent heterogeneity between subjects more complex than commonly used fixed effect models. An analysis of 900 Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) trees provided the data for this study.展开更多

Post-J test inference means that the inference problem is considered by taking the first stage J test into account. We first propose a post-J test estimator and derive its asymptotic distribution. We then consider the test problem of the unknown parameters, and a Wald statistic based on the post-J test estimator is proposed. A simulation study shows that the proposed Wald statistic works perfectly as well as the two-stage test from the view of the empirical size and power in large-sample cases, and when the sample size is small, it is even better. As a result,the new Wald statistic can be used directly to test the hypotheses on the unknown parameters in non-nested linear regression models.展开更多
