A recommender system for wiki pages: Usage based rating approach

Online educational resources are in abundance, which urged the need for recommender systems to assist learners in identifying learning resources which suits their need. Wikipedia plays a major role in online delivery of educational resources. The open to access and edit feature of wiki allows anonymous users to include resources which necessitate the rating of wiki resources. Recommender systems suggests users with items that suits them the best. In this paper we propose a recommender system for wiki pages, which uses certain measures and metrics to rate the quality of wiki resources. The proposed model categorizes the wiki educational resources based on the purpose of usage.
