A recommendation algorithm combined with a knowledge graph enables auxiliary information on items to be obtained by using the knowledge graph to achieve better recommendations. However, the recommendation performance of existing methods relies heavily on the quality of the knowledge graph. Knowledge graphs often contain noise and irrelevant connections between items and entities in the real world. This knowledge graph sparsity and noise significantly amplifies the noise effects and hinders the accurate representation of user preferences. In response to these problems, an improved collaborative recommendation model is proposed which integrates knowledge embedding and graph contrastive learning. Specifically, we propose a knowledge contrastive learning scheme to mitigate noise within the knowledge graph during information aggregation, thereby enhancing the embedding quality of items. Simultaneously, to tackle the issue of insufficient user-side information in the knowledge graph, graph convolutional neural networks are utilized to propagate knowledge graph information from the item side to the user side, thereby enhancing the personalization capability of the recommendation system. Additionally, to resolve the oversmoothing issue in graph convolutional networks, a residual structure is employed to establish the message propagation network between adjacent layers of the same node, which expands the information propagation path. Experimental results on the Amazon-book and Yelp2018 public datasets demonstrate that the proposed model outperforms the best baseline models by 11.4% and 11.6%, respectively, in terms of the Recall@20 evaluation metric. This highlights the method’s efficacy in improving the recommendation accuracy and effectiveness when incorporating knowledge graphs into the recommendation process.
