Abstract

Web-based learning or e-Learning in contrast to traditional education systems offer a lot of benefits. This article presents the Goal-based Framework for providing personalized similarities between multi users profile preferences in formal e-Learning scenarios. It consists of two main approaches: content-based filtering and collaborative filtering. Because only traditional content-based filtering is not sufficient to generate the recommendations for new-users, therefore, the proposed work hybridized multi user's collaborative filtering functionalities with personalized content-based profile preferences filtering. The main purpose of this proposed work is to (a) overcome the user-based cold-start profile recommendations and (b) improve the recommendations accuracy for new-users in formal e-learning recommendation systems. The experimental has been done by using the famous ‘MovieLens' dataset with 15.86% density of the user-item matrix with respect to ratings, while the evaluation of experimental results have been performed with precision mean and recall mean to test the effectiveness of Goal-based personalized recommendation framework. The Experimental result Precision: 81.90% and Recall: 86.56% show that the proposed framework goals performed well for the improvement of user-based cold-start issue as well as for content-based profile recommendations, using multi users personalized collaborative similarities, in formal e-Learning scenarios effectively.
