Abstract

Recommendation system is considered a tool that can be used to recommend researchers about resources that are suitable for their research of interest by using content-based filtering. In this paper, clustering algorithm as an unsupervised learning is introduced for grouping objects based on their feature selection and similarities. The information of publication in Science Cited Index is used to be dataset for clustering as a feature extraction in terms of dimensionality reduction of these articles by comparing Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA), Principal Component Analysis (PCA), and K-Mean to determine the best algorithm. In my experiment, the selected database consists of 2625 documents extraction extracted from SCI corpus from 2001 to 2009. Clustering into ranks as 50,100,200,250 is used to consider and using F-Measure evaluate among them in three algorithms. The result of this paper showed that LDA technique given the accuracy up to 95.5% which is the highest effective than any other clustering technique.
