| Summary: | A novel method for interest level estimation based on tensor completion via feature integration for partially paired users' behavior and videos is presented in this paper. The proposed method defines a novel canonical correlation analysis (CCA) framework that is suitable for interest level estimation, which is a hybrid version of semi-supervised CCA (SemiCCA) and supervised locality preserving CCA (SLPCCA) called semi-supervised locality preserving CCA (S2LPCCA). For partially paired users' behavior and videos in actual shops and on the Internet, new integrated features that maximize the correlation between partially paired samples by the principal component analysis (PCA)-mixed CCA framework are calculated. Then videos that users have not watched can be used for the estimation of users' interest levels. Furthermore, local structures of partially paired samples in the same class are preserved for accurate estimation of interest levels. Tensor completion, which can be applied to three contexts, videos, users and “canonical features and interest levels,” is used for estimation of interest levels. Consequently, the proposed method realizes accurate estimation of users' interest levels based on S2LPCCA and the tensor completion from partially paired training features of users' behavior and videos. Experimental results obtained by applying the proposed method to actual data show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
