2021. Recommender systems have been proved to be effective techniques to provide users with better experiences. However, when a recommender knows the user's preference characteristics or gets their sensitive information, then a series of privacy concerns are raised. A amount of solutions in the literature have been proposed to enhance privacy protection degree of recommender systems. Although the existing solutions have enhanced the protection, they led to a decrease in recommendation accuracy simultaneously. In this paper, we propose a security-aware hybrid recommendation method by combining the factorization and regression techniques. Specifically, the differential privacy mechanism is integrated into data pre-processing for data encryption. Firstly data are perturbed to satisfy differential privacy and transported to the recommender. Then the recommender calculates the aggregated data. However, applying differential privacy raises utility issues of low recommendation accuracy, meanwhile the use of a single model may cause overfitting. In order to tackle this challenge, we adopt a fusion prediction model by combining linear regression (LR) and matrix factorization (MF) for collaborative recommendation. With the MovieLens dataset, we evaluate the recommendation accuracy and regression of our recommender system and demonstrate that our system performs better than the existing recommender system under privacy requirement.
