Popis: Currently, recommender systems (RS) are incorporating implicit information from social circle of the Internet. The implicit social information in human mind is not easy to reflect in appropriate decision making techniques. This paper consists of 2 contributions. First, we develop an item-based prototype classifier (IPC) in which a prototype represents a social circle’s preferences as a pattern classification technique. We assume the social circle which distinguishes with others by the items their members like. The prototype structure of the classifier is defined by two2-dimensional matrices. We use information gain and OWA aggregator to construct a feature space. The item-based classifier assigns a new item to some prototypes with different prototypicalities. We reform a typical data set—Iris data set in UCI Machine Learning Repository to verify our fuzzy prototype classifier. The second proposition of this paper is to give the application of IPC in recommender system to solve new item cold-start problems. We modify the dataset of MovieLens to perform experimental demonstrations of the proposed ideas.
