Abstract

In recommender systems, the user items are offered tailored to users’ requirements. Because there are multiple cloud services, recommending a suitable service for users' requirements is of paramount importance. Cloud recommender systems are qualified depending on the extent to which they accurately predict service quality values. Because no service was chosen by the user beforehand, and no record of the user's selections is available, it became challenging to recommend it to users. To promote the recommender system quality, to accurately predict service quality values by offering various procedures, including collaborative filtering, matrix factorization, and clustering. This review article first mentions the general problem and states the need for research, followed by examining and expressing the kinds of recommender systems along with their problems and challenges. In the present review, various approaches, platforms, and solutions are reviewed to articulate the pros and cons of individual approaches, simulation models, and evaluation metrics employed in the reviewed techniques. The measured values in various approaches of the papers are compared with one another in several diagrams. This review paper reviews and introduces the entire datasets applied in the studies.
