In this paper, we propose a novel method to compute the similarity between congeneric nodes in bipartite networks. Different from the standard cosine similarity, we take into account the influence of a node’s degree. Substituting this new definition of similarity for the standard cosine similarity, we propose a modified collaborative filtering (MCF). Based on a benchmark database, we...
