As science advances, the academic community has published millions of research papers. Researchers devote time and effort to search relevant manuscripts when writing a paper or simply to keep up with current research. In this paper, we consider the problem of citation recommendation on graph and propose a task-specific neighborhood construction strategy to learn the distributed representations of papers. In addition, given the learned representations, we investigate various schemes to rank the candidate papers for citation recommendation. The experimental results show our proposed neighborhood construction strategy outperforms the widely-used random walks based sampling strategy on all ranking schemes, and the model based ranking scheme outperforms embedding based rankings for both neighborhood construction strategies. We also demonstrated that graph embedding is a robust approach for citation recommendation when hidden ratio changes, while the performance of classic methods drop significantly when the set of seed papers is becoming small.
@cite_40: Collaborative filtering has proven to be valuable for recommending items in many different domains. In this paper, we explore the use of collaborative filtering to recommend research papers, using the citation web between papers to create the ratings matrix. Specifically, we tested the ability of collaborative filtering to recommend citations that would be suitable additional references for a target research paper. We investigated six algorithms for selecting citations, evaluating them through offline experiments against a database of over 186,000 research papers contained in ResearchIndex. We also performed an online experiment with over 120 users to gauge user opinion of the effectiveness of the algorithms and of the utility of such recommendations for common research tasks. We found large differences in the accuracy of the algorithms in the offline experiment, especially when balanced for coverage. In the online experiment, users felt they received quality recommendations, and were enthusiastic about the idea of receiving recommendations in this domain.
@cite_10: Every day researchers from all over the world have to filter the huge mass of existing research papers with the crucial aim of finding out useful publications related to their current work. In this paper we propose a research paper recommending algorithm based on the Citation Graph and random-walker properties. The PaperRank algorithm is able to assign a preference score to a set of documents contained in a digital library and linked one each other by bibliographic references. A data set of papers extracted by ACM Portal has been used for testing and very promising performances have been measured.
The graph embedding methods that we will present use sampling method inspired by the classic seed papers based citation recommendation PaperRank @cite_10 and Collaborative Filtering @cite_40 . And we will also evaluate the recommendation results our graph embedding methods obtain against these two baselines.
