description Cyber-physical systems are becoming part of our daily life, and a large number of data are generated at such an unprecedented rate that it becomes larger than ever before in social cyber-physical systems. As a consequence, it is highly desired to process these big data so that meaningful knowledge can be extracted from those vast and diverse data. Based on those large-scale data, using collaborative filtering recommendation methods to recommend some valuable clients or products for those e-commerce websites or users is considered as an effective way. In this work, we present an integrated collaborative filtering recommendation approach that combines item ratings, user ratings, and social trust for making better recommendations. In contrast to previous collaborative filtering recommendation works, integrated collaborative filtering recommendation approach takes full advantage of the correlation between data and takes into consideration the similarity between items, the similarity between users and two kinds of trust among users to select nearest neighbors of both users and items providing the most valuable information for recommendation. On the basis of neighbors selected, integrated collaborative filtering recommendation provides an approach combining two aspects to recommend valuable and suitable items for users. And the concrete process is illustrated as following: (1) the potentially interesting items are obtained by the shopping records of neighbors of a certain user, (2) the potentially interesting items are figured out according to the item neighbors of those items of the user, and (3) determine a few most interesting items combining the two sets of potential items obtained from previous process. A large number of experimental results show that the proposed integrated collaborative filtering recommendation approach can effectively enhance the recommendation performance in terms of mean absolute error and root mean square error. Integrated collaborative filtering recommendation approach could reduce mean absolute error and root mean square error by up to 27.5% and 15.7%, respectively.
