Group Recommendation Using External Followee for Social TV

Group recommendation plays a significant role in Social TV systems, where online friends form into temporary groups to enjoy watching video together and interact with each other. Online microblogging systems introduce the "following" relationship that reflects the common interests between users in a group and external representative followees outside the group. Traditional group recommendation only considers internal group members' preferences and their relationship. In our study, we measure the external followees' impact on group interest and establish group preference model based on external experts' guidance for group recommendation. In addition, we take advantage of the current watching video to improve context-aware recommendations. Experimental results show that our solution works much better in situations of high group dynamic and inactive group members than traditional approaches.
