Review-Based Personalized Recommendation System in Emergency Management

In emergency management, it is important to distribute supplies to people that meet their needs and interests. A good personalized recommendation system must rely on users’ real interests. Relied on purchase history, overall ratings and other forms of data, which are far from enough to infer users’ real interests, the limitation of traditional recommendation methods are revealed. In this paper, we proposed a review-based personalized recommendation system which could be applied in various areas, especially in emergency management. This method extracts a user’s latent interest and preference from his/her reviews of a product. The system aims to mine the features of the product which the users paid the most attention to, then find user group that shares similar interest, finally recommend the products that can most satisfy the users’ (or decision makers’) needs. An experiment was conducted and the result demonstrated that our system could generate a reliable and realistic recommendation.
