The massive amounts of web-sourced data have made accessibility of precise (tailored) information for end-users a challenging task. If this personalized information-filtering technology is possibly thought to get automated at the machine level, this necessitates the design of an appropriate machine-assisted recommender system that suffices both system and end-user requirements. This paper attempts to make use of an innovative hybrid approach to build a prototype of a machine-assisted recommender that can be used as a tool in the physical library of universities, organizations, and institutions. In this manuscript, an Enhanced Item-Based Collaborative Filtering Approach for Book Recommender System Design is proposed to predict the popular books based on the transactions found in the issue/return transaction database. Demographic attributes of books are used for the precise calculation of item-item similarity with cosine/correlation coefficient by discovering all significant associations rules in the formulated item set and it provides the recommendations. The proposed algorithm’s performances are calculated based on accuracy, precision, and recall.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
