Value-Aware Product Recommendation by Customer Segmentation using a suitable High-Dimensional Similarity Measure

Apr 28, 2026

This study addresses the challenge posed by the high-dimensional sparsity of user-item interaction data and its adverse impact on recommendation profitability. To this end, the authors propose a value-aware recommendation approach that explicitly encodes item profitability within the user-item matrix and introduces a profitability-aware similarity metric tailored for high-dimensional sparse settings. This enables user segmentation based on the profitability of their purchase baskets. Building upon this segmentation, three profit-oriented recommendation strategies—profit share, item popularity, and expected profit—are developed. Experimental evaluations on both synthetic data and the UCI Online Retail real-world dataset demonstrate that the proposed method significantly enhances the overall profitability of recommender systems.

LRC codes over characteristic $2$

Apr 06, 2026

This work proposes a general construction method for linear locally repairable codes (LRCs) over finite fields of characteristic two, fully resolving—for the first time—the high-parameter design problem for LRCs in even characteristic. Leveraging the algebraic structure of finite fields, the method yields LRCs whose length, dimension, and minimum distance are all on the order of $q^4$, with locality $r = q - 1$. The efficacy of the proposed construction is explicitly verified for the cases $q = 4$ and $q = 8$, achieving the best-known parameter trade-offs for LRCs over even-characteristic finite fields to date.
