@article{landia2013deeper, abstract = {The information contained in social tagging systems is often modelled as a graph of connections between users, items and tags. Recommendation algorithms such as FolkRank, have the potential to leverage complex relationships in the data, corresponding to multiple hops in the graph. We present an in-depth analysis and evaluation of graph models for social tagging data and propose novel adaptations and extensions of FolkRank to improve tag recommendations. We highlight implicit assumptions made by the widely used folksonomy model, and propose an alternative and more accurate graph-representation of the data. Our extensions of FolkRank address the new item problem by incorporating content data into the algorithm, and significantly improve prediction results on unpruned datasets. Our adaptations address issues in the iterative weight spreading calculation that potentially hinder FolkRank's ability to leverage the deep graph as an information source. Moreover, we evaluate the benefit of considering each deeper level of the graph, and present important insights regarding the characteristics of social tagging data in general. Our results suggest that the base assumption made by conventional weight propagation methods, that closeness in the graph always implies a positive relationship, does not hold for the social tagging domain.}, author = {Landia, Nikolas and Doerfel, Stephan and Jäschke, Robert and Anand, Sarabjot Singh and Hotho, Andreas and Griffiths, Nathan}, interhash = {e8095b13630452ce3ecbae582f32f4bc}, intrahash = {e585a92994be476480545eb62d741642}, journal = {cs.IR}, title = {Deeper Into the Folksonomy Graph: FolkRank Adaptations and Extensions for Improved Tag Recommendations}, url = {http://arxiv.org/abs/1310.1498}, volume = {1310.1498}, year = 2013 } @inproceedings{doerfel2013analysis, abstract = {Since the rise of collaborative tagging systems on the web, the tag recommendation task -- suggesting suitable tags to users of such systems while they add resources to their collection -- has been tackled.

Social tagging systems are open and inherently social; features that have been proven to encourage participation. However, with the large popularity of these systems and the increasing amount of user-contributed content, information overload rapidly becomes an issue. 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 social tagging systems, however, we face new challenges. While in classic recommender systems the mode of recommendation is basically the resource, in social tagging systems there are three possible modes of recommendation: users, resources, or tags. Therefore suitable methods that properly exploit the different dimensions of social tagging systems data are needed. In this book, we survey the most recent and state-of-the-art work about a whole new generation of recommender systems built to serve social tagging systems.

Those tags help users in finding/retrieving resources, discovering new resources, and navigating through the system. The process of tagging resources is laborious. Therefore, most systems support their users by tag recommender components that recommend tags in a personalized way. The Discovery Challenges 2008 and 2009 of the European Conference on Machine Learning and Principles and Practice of Knowledge Discovery in Databases (ECML PKDD) tackled the problem of tag recommendations in collaborative tagging systems. Researchers were invited to test their methods in a competition on datasets from the social bookmark and publication sharing system BibSonomy. Moreover, the 2009 challenge included an online task where the recommender systems were integrated into BibSonomy and provided recommendations in real time.

In practice, however, only very basic recommendation strategies are applied. In this paper we evaluate and compare several recommendation algorithms on large-scale real life datasets: an adaptation of user-based collaborative filtering, a graph-based recommender built on top of the FolkRank algorithm, and simple methods based on counting tag occurences. We show that both FolkRank and Collaborative Filtering provide better results than non-personalized baseline methods. Moreover, since methods based on counting tag occurrences are computationally cheap, and thus usually preferable for real time scenarios, we discuss simple approaches for improving the performance of such methods. We show, how a simple recommender based on counting tags from users and resources can perform almost as good as the best recommender. }, address = {Amsterdam}, author = {Jäschke, Robert and Marinho, Leandro and Hotho, Andreas and Schmidt-Thieme, Lars and Stumme, Gerd}, doi = {10.3233/AIC-2008-0438}, editor = {Giunchiglia, Enrico}, interhash = {b2f1aba6829affc85d852ea93a8e39f7}, intrahash = {955bcf14f3272ba6eaf3dadbef6c0b10}, issn = {0921-7126}, journal = {AI Communications}, number = 4, pages = {231-247}, publisher = {IOS Press}, title = {Tag Recommendations in Social Bookmarking Systems}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.3233/AIC-2008-0438}, vgwort = {63}, volume = 21, year = 2008 } @inproceedings{hjss06bibsonomy, author = {Hotho, Andreas and J{\"a}schke, Robert and Schmitz, Christoph and Stumme, Gerd}, booktitle = {Proc. of the ICCS 2006 Conceptual Structures Tool Interoperability Workshop}, interhash = {5c3de78cf860c767ee40602b3a5382f3}, intrahash = {4ca695ae4501bd56c03e435306d7c5a0}, note = {(to appear)}, title = {{BibSonomy}: A Social Bookmark and Publication Sharing System}, year = 2006 } @inproceedings{krause2008comparison, abstract = {Social bookmarking systems allow users to store links to internet resources on a web page.

In the first part, we compare the user activity and behaviour in both kinds of systems, as well as the overlap of the underlying sets of URLs. In the second part,we compare graph-based and vector space rankings for social bookmarking systems with commercial search engine rankings. Our experiments are performed on data of the social bookmarking system Del.icio.us and on rankings and log data from Google, MSN, and AOL. We will show that part of the difference between the systems is due to different behaviour (e. g., the concatenation of multi-word lexems to single terms in Del.icio.us), and that real-world events may trigger similar behaviour in both kinds of systems.
