Few approaches for recommending tags to a user for a document address this new item problem, concentrating instead on artificially created post-core datasets where it is guaranteed that the user as well as the document of each test post is known to the system and already has some tags assigned to it. In order to recommend tags for new documents, approaches are required which model documents not only based on the tags assigned to them in the past (if any), but also the content. In this paper we present a novel adaptation to the widely recognised FolkRank tag recommendation algorithm by including content data. We adapt the FolkRank graph to use word nodes instead of document nodes, enabling it to recommend tags for new documents based on their textual content. Our adaptations make FolkRank applicable to post-core 1 ie. the full real-world tagging datasets and address the new item problem in tag recommendation. For comparison, we also apply and evaluate the same methodology of including content on a simpler tag recommendation algorithm. This results in a less expensive recommender which suggests a combination of user related and document content related tags. Including content data into FolkRank shows an improvement over plain FolkRank on full tagging datasets. However, we also observe that our simpler content-aware tag recommender outperforms FolkRank with content data. Our results suggest that an optimisation of the weighting method of FolkRank is required to achieve better results.}, address = {New York, NY, USA}, author = {Landia, Nikolas and Anand, Sarabjot Singh and Hotho, Andreas and Jäschke, Robert and Doerfel, Stephan and Mitzlaff, Folke}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 4th ACM RecSys workshop on Recommender systems and the social web}, doi = {10.1145/2365934.2365936}, interhash = {7400e35f8d412d15722fe3399aba14a3}, intrahash = {b16dabcd7e17b673c34608ac820ce3c7}, isbn = {978-1-4503-1638-5}, location = {Dublin, Ireland}, month = sep, pages = {1--8}, publisher = {ACM}, title = {Extending FolkRank with Content Data}, url = {http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/2365934.2365936}, year = 2012 } @book{balbymarinho2012recommender, abstract = {Social Tagging Systems are web applications in which users upload resources (e.g., bookmarks, videos, photos, etc.) and annotate it with a list of freely chosen keywords called tags.

This new breed of social applications is reshaping nearly every human activity from the way people watch movies to how they overthrow governments. Facebook allows its members to maintain friendships whether they live next door or on another continent. With Twitter, users from celebrities to ordinary folks can launch their 140 character messages out to a diverse horde of ‘‘followers.” Flickr and YouTube users upload their personal media to share with the world, while Wikipedia editors collaborate on the world’s largest encyclopedia.}, author = {Burke, Robin and Gemmell, Jonathan and Hotho, Andreas and Jäschke, Robert}, interhash = {3089ca25de28ef0bc80bcdebd375a6f9}, intrahash = {41dbb2c9f71440c9aa402f8966117979}, journal = {AI Magazine}, number = 3, pages = {46--56}, publisher = {Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence}, title = {Recommendation in the Social Web}, url = {http://www.aaai.org/ojs/index.php/aimagazine/article/view/2373}, vgwort = {30}, volume = 32, year = 2011 } @incollection{marinho2011social, abstract = {The new generation of Web applications known as (STS) is successfully established and poised for continued growth. STS are open and inherently social; features that have been proven to encourage participation. But while STS bring new opportunities, they revive old problems, such as information overload. Recommender Systems are well known applications for increasing the level of relevant content over the noise that continuously grows as more and more content becomes available online. In STS however, we face new challenges. Users are interested in finding not only content, but also tags and even other users. Moreover, while traditional recommender systems usually operate over 2-way data arrays, STS data is represented as a third-order tensor or a hypergraph with hyperedges denoting (user, resource, tag) triples. In this chapter, we survey the most recent and state-of-the-art work about a whole new generation of recommender systems built to serve STS.We describe (a) novel facets of recommenders for STS, such as user, resource, and tag recommenders, (b) new approaches and algorithms for dealing with the ternary nature of STS data, and (c) recommender systems deployed in real world STS. Moreover, a concise comparison between existing works is presented, through which we identify and point out new research directions.}, address = {New York}, author = {Balby Marinho, Leandro and Nanopoulos, Alexandros and Schmidt-Thieme, Lars and Jäschke, Robert and Hotho, Andreas and Stumme, Gerd and Symeonidis, Panagiotis}, booktitle = {Recommender Systems Handbook}, doi = {10.1007/978-0-387-85820-3_19}, editor = {Ricci, Francesco and Rokach, Lior and Shapira, Bracha and Kantor, Paul B.}, interhash = {2d4afa6f7fb103ccc166c9c5d629cdd1}, intrahash = {708be7b5c269bd3a9d3d2334f858d52d}, isbn = {978-0-387-85820-3}, pages = {615--644}, publisher = {Springer}, title = {Social Tagging Recommender Systems}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-85820-3_19}, vgwort = {50}, year = 2011 }
