Recommender Systems, based on collaborative filtering (CF), aim to accurately predict user tastes, by minimising the mean error achieved on hidden test sets of user ratings, afte...
We describe a class of causal, discrete latent variable models called Multiple Multiplicative Factor models (MMFs). A data vector is represented in the latent space as a vector of...
Collaborative Filtering (CF) recommendations are computed by leveraging a historical data set of users’ ratings for items. It assumes that the users’ previously recorded ratin...
Abstract. User-to-user similarity is a fundamental component of Collaborative Filtering (CF) recommender systems. In user-to-user similarity the ratings assigned by two users to a ...
Collaborative Filtering (CF) Systems are gaining widespread acceptance in recommender systems and ecommerce applications. These systems combine information retrieval and data mini...
