Dynamically Predicting the Quality of Service: Batch, Online, and Hybrid Algorithms

Abstract EN

This paper studies the problem of dynamically modeling the quality of web service.

The philosophy of designing practical web service recommender systems is delivered in this paper.

A general system architecture for such systems continuously collects the user-service invocation records and includes both an online training module and an offline training module for quality prediction.

In addition, we introduce matrix factorization-based online and offline training algorithms based on the gradient descent algorithms and demonstrate the fitness of this online/offline algorithm framework to the proposed architecture.

The superiority of the proposed model is confirmed by empirical studies on a real-life quality of web service data set and comparisons with existing web service recommendation algorithms.
