Abstract: This paper introduces an innovative approach, the LS-SLM (Local Search with Smart Local Moving) technique, for enhancing the efficiency of article recommendation systems based on community detection and topic modeling. The methodology undergoes rigorous evaluation using a comprehensive dataset extracted from the “dblp. v12.json” citation network. Experimental results presented herein provide a clear depiction of the superior performance of the LS-SLM technique when compared to established algorithms, namely the Louvain Algorithm (LA), Stochastic Block Model (SBM), Fast Greedy Algorithm (FGA), and Smart Local Moving (SLM). The evaluation metrics include accuracy, precision, specificity, recall, F-Score, modularity, Normalized Mutual Information (NMI), betweenness centrality (BTC), and community detection time. Notably, the LS-SLM technique outperforms existing solutions across all metrics. For instance, the proposed methodology achieves an accuracy of 96.32%, surpassing LA by 16% and demonstrating a 10.6% improvement over SBM. Precision, a critical measure of relevance, stands at 96.32%, showcasing a significant advancement over GCR-GAN (61.7%) and CR-HBNE (45.9%). Additionally, sensitivity analysis reveals that the LS-SLM technique achieves the highest sensitivity value of 96.5487%, outperforming LA by 14.2%. The LS-SLM also demonstrates superior specificity and recall, with values of 96.5478% and 96.5487%, respectively. The modularity performance is exceptional, with LS-SLM obtaining 95.6119%, significantly outpacing SLM, FGA, SBM, and LA. Furthermore, the LS-SLM technique excels in community detection time, completing the process in 38,652 ms, showcasing efficiency gains over existing techniques. The BTC analysis indicates that LS-SLM achieves a value of 94.6650%, demonstrating its proficiency in controlling information flow within the network.
