A probabilistic ranking approach for tag recommendation

Zhen Liao, Maoqiang Xie, Hao Cao, Yalou Huang · 2009

Abstract. Social Tagging is a typical Web 2.0 application for users to share knowledge and organize the massive web resources. Choosing appropriate words as tags might be time consuming for users, thus a tag recommendation system is needed for accelerating this procedure. In this paper we formulate tag recommendation as a probabilistic ranking process, especially we propose a hybrid probabilistic approach which combines language model and statistical machine translation model. Experimental results validate the effectiveness of our method. 1
