Concerning the problem that traditional recommendation algorithm ignores the time factors, according to the similarity of individuals' short-term behavior, a calculation method of item correlation by using time decay function based on users' interest was proposed. And based on this method, a new item similarity was proposed. At the same time, the TItemRank algorithm was proposed which is an improved ItemRank algorithm by combining with the user interest-based item correlation. The experimental results show that: the improved algorithms have better recommendation effects than classical ones when the recommendation list is small. Especially, when the recommendation list has 20 items, the precision of user interest-based item similarity is 21.9% higher than Cosin similarity and 6.7% higher than Jaccard similarity. Meanwhile, when the recommendation list has 5 items, the precision of TItemRank is 2.9% higher than ItemRank.
