Collaborative filtering (CF), a very successful recommender system, is one of the applications of data mining for incomplete data. The main objective of CF is to make accurate recommendations from highly sparse user rating data. My contributions to this research topic include proposing the frameworks of imputation-boosted collaborative filtering (IBCF) and imputed neighborhood based collaborative filtering (INCF). We also proposed a model-based CF technique, TAN-ELR CF, and two hybrid CF algorithms, sequential mixture CF and joint mixture CF. Empirical results show that our proposed CF...
