User relevance measure is the foundation and core of heterogeneous information network research. The existing user relevance measure methods still have improvement space due to insufficient multi-dimensional analysis and link analysis. Aiming at the fact, a user relevance measure method combining Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) and meta-path analysis was proposed. Firstly, the LDA was used to model the topic, and the relevance of nodes was analyzed by the node contents in the network. Secondly, the meta-path was introduced to describe the relationship type between nodes, and relevance measure was carried out for users in heterogeneous information network by relevance measure method (DPRel). Thirdly, the relevance of nodes was incorporated into the calculation of user relevance measure. Finally, the experiment was carried out on IMDB real movie dataset, and the proposed method was compared with the collaborative filtering recommendation method embedded in LDA topic model ULR-CF (Unifying LDA and Ratings Collaborative Filtering) and meta-path based similarity method (PathSim).The experimental results show that the proposed method can overcome the drawback of data sparsity and improve the accuracy of user relevance measure.
