With the rapid growth of web services on the Internet, it becomes more difficult for users who want to choose the high-quality web services from a large number of functionally equivalent candidate services. Therefore, the prediction of quality of service (QoS) values according to the history of web services has received extensive attention. In recent years, deep learning has achieved great success in speech recognition, image processing, and natural language understanding. However, it is rarely applied to the service recommendation field. Therefore, a novel approach for QoS prediction named NDL (neighborhood-aware deep learning) is proposed. NDL first gets the Top-k neighbors of the user and the service through the Pearson correlation coefficient according to the service QoS information. Then, it extracts the potential features of the user neighbor and the service neighbor; after that, it inputs the QoS values of the user and the user neighbor as well as the QoS values of the service and service neighbors as a convolutional neural network. The results of experiments conducted on a real-world dataset demonstrate that the NDL significantly outperforms the current QoS prediction method in prediction accuracy.
