TL;DR
A combination of the results of content-based and collaborative filtering techniques is used in this work in order to construct a system that provides more precise recommendations concerning movies.
Abstract
Recommender systems offer a solution to the problem of successful information search in the knowledge reservoirs of the Internet by providing individualized recommendations. Content-based and Collaborative Filtering are usually applied to predict recommendations. A combination of the results of the above techniques is used in this work to construct a system that provides precise recommendations concerning movies. The content filtering part of the system is based on trained neural networks representing individual user preferences. Filtering results are combined using Boolean and fuzzy aggregation operators. The proposed hybrid system was tested on the MovieLens data yielding high accuracy predictions.

The key decisions in evaluating collaborative filtering recommender systems are reviewed: the user tasks being evaluated, the types of analysis and datasets being used, the ways in which prediction quality is measured, the evaluation of prediction attributes other than quality, and the user-based evaluation of the system as a whole.

The key point of this paper is to formalize modular neural networks as information sources, and show the feasibility of the fuzzy integral extended by OWA operators in the problem of combining neural outputs, especially in the case that the networks differ substantially from each other in accuracy.
