Abstract

Personal recommendation technology is becoming a useful and popular solution to solve the problem of information overload with the popularity of big data cloud services. But most recommendation algorithms pay too much attention to the similarity to focus on the social trust between users. So this paper focus on the research of hybrid Recommendation algorithm for big data based on the optimization combining with the similarity and trust in sociology. In this paper, we introduced some user trust models including trust path model and loop trust model, and then we took these models into the calculation of mixed weighting. The experiment results show that the recommendation algorithm considering the trust models has the higher accuracy than the traditional recommendation algorithm, and we have a 2% increase in both MEA (Mean Absolute Error) and RMSE (Root Mean Square Error).
