Abstract

Most of the traditional recommendation algorithms are based on TF-IDF, a term-based weighting method. This paper proposes a new method for recommending news items based on the weighting of the occurrences of references to concepts, which we call Concept Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (CFIDF). In an experimental setup we apply CF-IDF to a set of newswires in which we detect 1; 167 instances of a set of 65 concepts from a domain ontology. The proposed method yields significantly better results with respect to accuracy, recall, and F1 than the TF-IDF method we use as a basis for comparison.
