Query-Focused Personalized Citation Recommendation With Mutually Reinforced Ranking
Abstract
Many state-of-the-art citation recommendation methods have been proposed for finding a list of reference papers for a given manuscript, among which the graph-based method has gained particular attention, due to its flexibility for incorporating various information that embodies user's preferences. To achieve a more synthetic, accurate, and personalized recommendation result than the previous graph-based methods, this paper proposes a new graph-based recommendation framework that exploiting diversified link information in a bibliographic network and the concise query information that embodies the specific requirement of user comprehensively. The proposed framework not only performs mutual reinforcement rules on all available multiple types of relations in a multi-layered graph but also incorporates the query information into the multi-layered mutual reinforcement schema to construct a multi-layered mutually reinforced query-focused (MMRQ) citation recommendation approach. Extensive experiments have been conducted on a subset of anthology network data set. Experimental results of Recall measures, normalized discounted cumulative gain measures, and case study all demonstrate that our MMRQ method obtains a superior citation recommendation.
