| Abstract | The research issue of recommender systems has been treated as a classical regression problem over the decades and has obtained a great success. In the next generation of recommender systems, multi-criteria recommendation has been predicted as an important direction. Different from traditional recommender systems that aim particularly at recommending high-quality items evaluated by users' ratings, inmulti-criteria recommendation, quality only serves as one criterion, and many other criteria such as relevance, coverage, and diversity should be simultaneously optimized. Although recently there is work investigating each single criterion, there is rarely any literature that reports how each single criterion impacts each other and how to combine them in real applications. Thus in this paper, we study the relationship of two criteria, quality and relevance, as a preliminary work in multi-criteria recommendation. We first give qualitative and quantitative analysis of competitive quality-based and relevance-based algorithms in these two criteria to show that both algorithms cannot work well in the opposite criteria. Then we propose an integrated metric and finally investigate how to combine previous work together into an unified model. In the combination, we introduce a Continuous-time MArkov Process (CMAP) algorithm for ranking, which enables principled and natural integration with features derived from both quality-based and relevance-based algorithms. Through experimental verification, the combined methods can significantly outperform either single quality-based or relevance-based algorithms in the integrated metric and the CMAP model outperforms traditional combination methods by around 3%. Its linear complexity with respect to the number of users and items leads to satisfactory performance, as demonstrated by the around 7-hour computational time for over 480k users and almost 20k items. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
