Abstract: Movie recommendation system has played a vital role in retrieving the movies that are of interest to the user. Most of the traditional methods provide a unified recommendation without considering the individual preference of the user. To address this challenge, various recommender methods are currently employing side information like location, time, gender, and genre to provide a personalized recommendation. In this paper, we propose —Common Genre Relations (COGS), which incorporates the information on genre relationships between the movies. Meanwhile, the method reduces the search space for each user and helps to mitigate the sparsity problem. To improve the scalability, the methods are executed on user-item subgroups. Extensive experiments are conducted on a real-world dataset. The empirical analysis shows that the proposed method based on the graph model excels the accuracy at top-k than the state-of-art collaborative filtering methods.
