- Abstract
Recommender system has added an incredible convenience by delivering suggestions that are of our interest while we dive into the ocean of information. Among different recommender techniques, Multi-criteria collaborative filtering (MCCF)system is the one who determines user preferences by carefully considering the user rating on multiple criteria of an item. As the system is dependent on explicit ratings given by user, this openness may make the entire system vulnerable for shilling attacks, thereby causing malicious users to corrupt the credibility of system by proving fake ratings. Identification of all such vulnerabilities within these systems provides worthwhile insight for the security and robustness of this recommender system. This study aims to identify various vulnerabilities of MCCF and construction of multiple datasets for specific analytic requirements. The finding underpins measures that are to be taken for building a robust system and the datasets constructed can be used to analyze and study shilling attacks on MCCF more precisely in future researches.
