<em>MyRecommendation</em> engine based on the <a 
href="/templates/recommendation/quickstart/">Recommendation Engine Template: 
QuickStart</a>. We will demonstrate how to add a filtering logic to exclude a 
list of items in the training data.</p><p>A sample black list file containing 
the items to be excluded is provided in 
<code>./data/sample_not_train_data.txt</code>.</p><p>A full end-to-end example

Component</h2><p>Recall <a href="/start/engines/">the DASE Architecture</a>, 
data is prepared by 2 components sequentially: <em>Data Source</em> and 
<em>Data Preparator</em>. <em>Data Source</em> reads data from the data store 
of Event Server and then <em>Data Preparator</em> prepares <code>RDD
 [Rating]</code> for the ALS algorithm.</p><p>You may modify any component in 
an engine template to fit your needs. This example shows you how to add the 
filtering logics in Data Preparator.</p><h2 id='modify-the-preparator' 
class='header-anchors'>Modify the Preparator</h2><p>The Data Preparator 
component can be found in <code>src/main/scala/Preparator.scala</code> in the 
&quot;MyRecommendation&quot; directory. The unmodified version looks like the
