The approach constructs the taxonomy trees for each categorical attribute of users. Based on the taxonomy trees, the distance between numerical and categorical attributes is computed in a unified framework via a proper weight. Then, using the proposed distance method, the nave k-means cluster method is modified to compute the intrinsic user groups. Finally, the user group information is incorporated to improve the performance of traditional similarity measurement. A series of experiments are performed on a real world dataset, M ovie Lens. Results demonstrate that the proposed approach considerably outperforms the traditional approaches in the prediction accuracy in collaborative filtering.展开更多
