| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we applied copulas which can consider complex dependencies among multiple features to the areas of information retrieval (IR) and recommender systems, and showed a method to design transparent and highly effective IR and recommender systems.
More specifically, we considered a mixture copula model which integrates multiple copulas with a linear combination for building effective IR and recommender systems. To estimate a good mixture copula which affects their effectiveness, we indicated that it is appropriate that a density-based clustering algorithm is applied in the copula estimation phase. In addition, we also developed an efficient top-k algorithm for quickly returning relevant results even if the scoring function is non-linear, such as copulas, and non-monotonic. Moreover, as for recommender systems, we showed that effective recommender systems can also be designed with mixture copulas, when preprocessing feature parameters with a statistical approach.
