Probabilistic Model Using Bayes Theorem Research Paper Recommender System

Uniqueness is inherited in every individual. Each individual links with another individual forming some social organization. Social organization in common places some trends or norms that influence each of its members. Thus, each individual ascribes common liking or behavior. Analysis of this behavioral pattern leads to the development of a recommender system, which helps to predict and determine the preference an individual ought to opt. Recommender system proves significant in e-commerce marketing strategies. Besides, recommender system finds its application in academics, health, entertainment, etc. This paper proposes a probabilistic model research paper recommender system using naive Bayes algorithm. The originality this paper incorporates is to classify the instances of the target paper into attributes such as title, reference, citation, calculated conditional probability and label them into recommendation or not. Deploying naive Bayes classifier, the evaluation of the current research is done generating the confusion matrix and hence calculated accuracy, precision, recall and F-measure. We have achieved an accuracy of 90.47%.
