“…A change of serendipity might affect other properties of a recommender system. To demonstrate the dependence of different properties and features of the baselines, we employed evaluation metrics to measure four properties of recommender systems: (1) accuracy, as it is a common property (Kotkov et al, 2016b), (2) serendipity, as SPR, Zhengs, SOG and SOGBasic are designed to improve this property (Lu et al, ;Zheng et al, 2015), (3) diversity, as this is one of the objectives of TD, SOG and SOGBasic (Ziegler et al, 2005) and (4) novelty, as SPR, Zhengs, SOG and SOGBasic are designed to improve this property (Lu et al, ;Zheng et al, 2015).…”
