The Multi-Clustering Collaborative Filtering algorithm was developed to achieve this, as described in the author’s previous papers. However, utilizing multiple clusters poses challenges regarding memory consumption and scalability. Not all partitionings are equally advantageous, making selecting clusters for the recommender system’s input crucial without compromising recommendation accuracy. This article presents a solution for selecting clustering schemes based on internal indices evaluation. This method can be employed for preparing input data in collaborative filtering recommender systems. The study’s results confirm the positive impact of scheme selection on the overall recommendation performance, as it typically improves after the selection process. Furthermore, a smaller number of clustering schemes used as input for the recommender system enhances scalability and reduces memory consumption. The findings are compared with baseline recommenders’ outcomes to validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.}, type={Article}, title={Selection of clusters based on internal indices in multi-clustering collaborative filtering recommender system}, URL={http://so.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/130699/13_4461_Kuzelewska_L_sk.pdf}, doi={10.24425/ijet.2024.149520}, keywords={multi-clustering, collaborative filtering, evaluation of clustering schemes}, }
