How to obtain personalized quality of cloud/IoT services and assist users selecting the appropriate service has become a hot issue with the explosion of services on the Internet. Collaborative QoS prediction is proposed to address this issue by borrowing ideas from recommender systems. However, there is still a challenging problem as how to incorporate contextual factors into existing algorithms to realize context aware QoS prediction as contextual factors play a crucial role in QoS assessment. In this paper, we propose a general context-sensitive matrix-factorization approach (CSMF) to make collaborative QoS prediction. By considering the complexity of service invocations, CSMF models the interactions of users-to-services and environment-to-environment simultaneously, and make full use of implicit and explicit contextual factors in the QoS data. Experimental results show that CSMF significantly outperforms the-state-of-art methods in metric of prediction accuracy. Particularly, when the QoS data is very sparse, CSMF is more effective and robust. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
