Abstract

To address the data-sparsity and cold-start problems in recommender systems, this paper proposed a dual-channel autoencoder–collaborative filtering hybrid algorithm based on locality-sensitive hashing (LSH) clustering. First, LSH is exploited to cluster users efficiently, cutting computational overhead. Next, a dual-channel autoencoder is designed to jointly learn deep representations of two heterogeneous information sources—user rating behavior and movie genre preferences. Finally, a hybrid collaborative-filtering mechanism refines the predicted scores. Experiments on MovieLens-100K, MovieLens-1M, and Amazon-Book show that the proposed model achieves NDCG@5 values of 0.3714, 0.5689, and 0.737, respectively—up to 13.8 % higher than the best existing methods. RMSE for rating prediction drops to 0.3266, 0.4435, and 0.5606, an improvement of over 70 % compared with the AutoRec baseline. The model outperforms competitors in recommendation accuracy, ranking quality, and coverage, demonstrating its scalability and robustness in large-scale, highly sparse scenarios.
