Abstract

Modeling interest of a user for services recommendation and friendship between users is the major activity of social networks. The information used by social networks such as user profiles is unfortunately easy to be faked and misled by the users, which often results in poor service recommendation and friendship prediction. In this paper, we propose a propagation model that integrates the emerging Web of Things (resource/services networks) and social networks together so that better service recommendation and friendship prediction can be achieved by considering interactions between people and things.
