Abstract
En 中文
Effective and efficient personalized search is one of the most pursued objectives in the era of big data. The challenge of this problem lies in its complex quantifying evaluations and dynamic user preferences. A user-involved interactive evolutionary algorithm is a good choice if it has reliable preference surrogate and powerful evolutionary strategies. A Restricted Boltzmann Machine (RBM) assisted Interactive Estimation of Distribution Algorithm (IEDA) is presented to enhance the IEDA in solving the personalized search. Specifically, a dual-RBM module is developed to simultaneously provide a preference surrogate and a probability model for conducting the individual selection and generation of the IEDA. Firstly, the positive and negative preferences of the currently involved user in IEDA are distinguished and combined to achieve a dual-RBM, and then the weighted energy functions of the RBM model together with social group information from users with similar preferences are designed as the preference surrogate. The probability of the trained positive RBM on the visible units is fetched as the reproduction model of EDA since it reflects the attribute distributions of more preferred items. Some benchmarks from the Movielens and Amazon datasets are applied to experimentally demonstrate the superiority of the proposed algorithm in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the interactive evolutionary computations served personalized search.
