description To promote online businesses and sales, e-commerce industry focuses to fulfill users' demands by giving them top set of recommendations which are ranked through different ranking measures.Deep learning based auto-encoder models have further improved the performance of recommender systems. A state-of-the-art collaborative denoising auto-encoder (CDAE) models user-item interactions as a corrupted version of users rating inputs. However, this architecture still lacks users' ratings-trend information which is an important parameter to recommend top-N items to users. In this paper, building upon CDAE characteristics, we propose a novel users rating-trend based collaborative denoising auto-encoder (UT-CDAE) which determines user-item correlations by evaluating rating-trend(High or Low) of a user towards a set of items. This inclusion of a user's rating-trend provides additional regularization flexibility which helps to predict improved top-N recommendations. The correctness of the suggested method is verified through different ranking evaluation metrics i.e., (mean reciprocal rank, mean average precision and normalized discounted gain), for various input corruption values, learning rates and regularization parameters.Experiments on standard ML-100K and ML-1M datasets show that suggested model has improved performance overstate-of-the-art denoising auto-encodermodels.
