Addressing cold start problem through unfavorable reviews and specification of products in recommender system

Importance and usage of the recommender system increases with the increase of information. The accuracy of the system recommendation primarily depends on the data. There is a problem in recommender systems, known as cold start problem. The lack of data about new products and users causes the cold start problem, and the system will not be able to give correct recommendation. This paper deals with cold start problem by comparing product specification and the review of the resembled products. The user, who likes the resembled product of the new one has more probability of taking interest in the new product as well. However, if a user disagreed with resembled product due to some reasons which the user mentioned in the reviews. The new product overcomes that issue, so the user will greatly accept the new product. Therefore, the system needs to recommend new product to those users as well, in this way the cold start problem will get resolved.
