    Collaborative filtering techniques are widely used in e-commerce systems. However, the rating data are very sparse, which affects prediction accuracy greatly. A time division based collaborative filtering algorithm is proposed in this paper. According to the current time and the released time of items, items are divided into three types, named new item, normal item and old item respectively. Accordingly, users´ interests are calculated in the three types respectively and user-item matrix is expanded. When predicting the rate of an item for a user, different strategies are used with different types of items. Data sparsity and new item problems are solved effectively. Empirical studies on MovieLens have shown that our newly proposed method improve recommendation quality obviously.
