Local activities become the most popular application of SNS (social networking services). Due to the exponential increase of activities information and the urgent need for ways to cope with it, this paper describes the design and implementation of an interest mining and recommender systems. The user interest model is a major factor in the efficiency of the recommender system, thus modeling according to the userspsila interests is one of the problems which should be a major concern in personalized service. The system adopts interest mining technology and can automatically identify the userpsilas interests and recommend interest-related local activities initiatively. This paper improves a category-based collaborative filtering algorithm base on authority of user. Experimental results show that this method can overcome the problem of extreme sparsity in collaborative filtering, and provide better recommendation results than traditional collaborative filtering algorithm.

Todays' WUM techniques allow to perform the mining process based on lists of words, stems, and visitors' sessions. Although, results are (generally) far from visitors' real goals or motivations when browsing a web site. Thus, extraction of useful modifications of site organization or contents are difficult to obtain. It is needed a way to enhance the WUM process, to allow better results, closer to visitors' real preferences and goals. It was developed a Semantic WUM process, which uses a concept-based approach to add semantics into the mining process. The solution proposed, was applied to a real web site to produce off-line enhancements of contents and structure. The method was compared with four different WUM methods. Afterwards, the quality of enhancements was evaluated using a survey to 100 subjects, proving the effectiveness of the proposal.

Except in very controlled or fortuitous circumstances, good coordination between agents does not spontaneously occur. In general, agents need to plan for coordination, anticipating how their activities can affect each other and choosing actions that dovetail well together to achieve their separate and common goals. Of course, this is easier said than done, since the potential space of agents' action and interaction sequences to consider is intractable. I discuss some technologies that make it practical to plan for good coordination by exploiting algorithmic, representational, and problem-specific structure. Furthermore, when conducted by the involved agents, the processes for planning coordination need to be coordinated themselves. Toward this end, I also outline meta-level strategies for coordinating the agents' planning processes.

In the negotiation literature we find two relatively distinct types of negotiation. The two types are known as integrative negotiations and distributive negotiations. Integrative negotiations are those where all sides are looking for solutions that are "good" for everyone while distributive negotiations are those where each party tries to maximize his gain. In this paper we are interested in argumentation- based integrative negotiations. More precisely we present a study characterizing the outcomes of such negotiations. For this reason, we aggregate the argumentation systems that the agents use in order to negotiate. The aggregate argumentation system represents the negotiation theory of the agents as a group and corresponds to the "ideal" situation of having access to complete information or negotiating through a mediator. We show that the aggregation operator we use is very suitable for capturing the essence of integrative negotiation as the outcomes of the aggregate theory we obtain have many appealing properties (e.g. they are Pareto optimal solutions).

We proposed a cognition-driven decision process model for business intelligence. In this model, a managerpsilas situation awareness (SA) and mental models are developed and enriched for naturalistic decision making based on traditional business intelligence systems. Mental models are also used to supervise the process of situation information retrieval and presentation. The final decision-making process is based on recognition-primed decision model.

Coalition formation in social networks allows many choices of which task to select and with whom to partner in the social network. Agents communicate with agents within n network links in their surrounding network. These agents are considered part of an agentpsilas local neighborhood. Agents maintain a database of skills possessed by agents in their local neighborhood. We compare agents of two different types. Structural agents seek to create a scale-free network. Inventory agents seek to connect to agents who possess a skill not found in their current local neighborhood. We examine the ability of the agents to deal with static skill demand patterns, changing skill demand patterns, and a mismatch of the skills supplied to the skills demanded.

Social networks are very popular nowadays and the understanding of their inner structure seems to be a promising area. Several approaches for the social network structure visualization has been introduced and the typical problem is the schematic value of such visualization and the computational complexity of their analysis. This paper proposes a method by using the relation between objects, which is reduced and used as an input to Formal Concept Analysis methods. Our method attempts to deal with both mentioned problems.

An online question answering (QA) portal provides users a way to socialize and help each other to solve problems. The majority of the online question answer systems use user-feedback to rank userspsila answers. This way of ranking is inefficient as it involves ongoing efforts by the users and is subjective. Currently researchers have utilized link analysis of user interactions for this task. However, this is not accurate in some circumstances. A detailed structural analysis of an online QA portal is conducted in this paper. A novel approach based on userspsila reputation reflecting the usage patterns is proposed to rank and recommend the user answers. The method is compared with a popular link topology analysis method, HITS. The result of the proposed method is promising.

The need for recommendation systems to ease user navigations has become evident by growth of information on the Web. There exist many approaches of learning for Web usage-based recommendation systems. In hybrid recommendation systems, other knowledge resources, like content, semantics, and hyperlink structure of the Web site, have been utilized to enhance usage-based personalization systems. In this study, we introduce a new structure-based similarity measure for user sessions. We also apply two clustering algorithms on this similarity measure to compare it to cosine and another structure-based similarity measures. Our experiments exhibit that adding structure information, leveraging the proposed similarity measure, enhances the quality of recommendations in both methods.

News Topics are related to a set of keywords or keyphrases. Topic keyphrases briefly describe the key content of topics and help users decide whether to do further reading about them. Moreover, keyphrases of a news topic can be considered as a cluster of related terms, which provides term relationship information that can be integrated into information retrieval models. In this paper, an automatic online news topic keyphrase extraction system is proposed. News stories are organized into topics. Keyword candidates are firstly extracted from single news stories and filtered with topic information. Then a phrase identification process combines keywords into phrases using position information. Finally, the phrases are ranked and top ones are selected as topic keyphrases. Experiments performed on practical Web datasets show that the proposed system works effectively, with a performance of precision=70.61% and recall=67.94%.
