- Abstract:
-
Recommender systems based on federated learning has become one of the research hotspots in the recommender field. However, few studies focused on the cold start problem of federated recommender systems. Under the framework of federated learning, we propose a novel collaborative filtering algorithm for its solution: through involving more rating matrices, we can get a similarity matrix with secure inner product method, and implement the recommendation for new users to the system. In this work, we verify the performance of our method on MovieLens. The results show that our proposal is effective in solving the cold start problem in similarity-based collaborative filtering, and the recommendation effects vary according to the data distribution among different parties.
