E-commerce Recommender System Using PCA and K-Means Clustering

Recently, recommender system has an important role in e-commerce to market products for users. One of recommender system approach that used in e-commerce is Collaborative Filtering. This system works by providing product recommendations based on products liked by other users who have similar preferences. However, sparse conditions in user data will cause sparsity problems, namely the system is difficult to provide recommendations because of the lack of important information needed. Therefore, we propose an e-commerce product recommendation system based on Collaborative Filtering using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and K-Means Clustering. K-Means is used to overcome sparsity problems and to form user clusters to reduce the amount of data that needs to be processed. While PCA is used to reduce data dimensions and improve clustering performance of K-Means. The test results using the sports product dataset on the Olist e-commerce show that the proposed system has a lower RMSE value compared to other methods. For the number of neighbors of 10, 20, 30, and 40, our system obtains values of 0.771806, 0.75747, 0.75304, 0.75304, and 0.75270.

The Effects of Gender Signals and Performance in Online Product Reviews.

This work quantifies the effects of signaling gender through gender specific user names, on the success of reviews written on the popular amazon.com shopping platform. Highly rated reviews play an important role in e-commerce since they are prominently displayed next to products. Differences in reviews, perceived—consciously or unconsciously—with respect to gender signals, can lead to crucial biases in determining what content and perspectives are represented among top reviews. To investigate this, we extract signals of author gender from user names to select reviews where the author’s likely gender can be inferred. Using reviews authored by these gender-signaling authors, we train a deep learning classifier to quantify the gendered writing style (i.e., gendered performance) of reviews written by authors who do not send clear gender signals via their user name. We contrast the effects of gender signaling and performance on the review helpfulness ratings using matching experiments. This is aimed at understanding if an advantage is to be gained by (not) signaling one’s gender when posting reviews. While we find no general trend that gendered signals or performances influence overall review success, we find strong context-specific effects. For example, reviews in product categories such as Electronics or Computers are perceived as less helpful when authors signal that they are likely woman, but are received as more helpful in categories such as Beauty or Clothing. In addition to these interesting findings, we believe this general chain of tools could be deployed across various social media platforms.

Multi-Criteria Recommendation Systems to Foster Online Grocery.

With the exponential increase in information, it has become imperative to design mechanisms that allow users to access what matters to them as quickly as possible. The recommendation system (RS) with information technology development is the solution, it is an intelligent system. Various types of data can be collected on items of interest to users and presented as recommendations. RS also play a very important role in e-commerce. The purpose of recommending a product is to designate the most appropriate designation for a specific product. The major challenge when recommending products is insufficient information about the products and the categories to which they belong. In this paper, we transform the product data using two methods of document representation: bag-of-words (BOW) and the neural network-based document combination known as vector-based (Doc2Vec). We propose three-criteria recommendation systems (product, package and health) for each document representation method to foster online grocery shopping, which depends on product characteristics such as composition, packaging, nutrition table, allergen, and so forth. For our evaluation, we conducted a user and expert survey. Finally, we compared the performance of these three criteria for each document representation method, discovering that the neural network-based (Doc2Vec) performs better and completely alters the results.
