description | The Internet provides a platform for sharing services, and web service brokers help users to choose the suitable service among similar services based on ranking. The quality of service is important in evaluating the services the user needs. However, finding a quality-based data label in many fields can be time-consuming and difficult. Thus, machine learning is required to classify and choose the best service in this field. The selection process is done through analysis and recommendations by the system. This article introduces the SSL-WSC algorithm, which classifies unlabeled data through semi-supervised self-training learning using a small amount of labeled data. This algorithm labels the data using a two-step method of calculating a score for each service and dynamic thresholding. The quality features of web services obtained from the QWS dataset were used to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm. The experimental results in different scenarios showed that using proposed semi-supervised learning algorithms to create classification models led to better results, so it improved the F1-score, accuracy, and precision, on average, by 11.26%, 9.43% and 9.53%, respectively, as compared to the supervised method. |
