AI Technical Summary
Existing collaborative filtering recommendation algorithms suffer from privacy risks such as uneven noise addition leading to reduced data availability, decreased accuracy of recommendation results, and privacy leakage, making it difficult to provide accurate recommendations while protecting privacy.
The DBSCAN algorithm is used to screen abnormal users, and box plots are used to identify truly abnormal users. Noise of different magnitudes is added based on user similarity values. The k-means algorithm is used to select centroids and iteratively update them. An adaptive noise matrix is constructed to cluster users and finally generate recommendation results.
It improves the accuracy of recommendation results, avoids the accumulation of noise during the iteration process, enhances user privacy protection, and reduces the risk of privacy leakage.
