----------------------------------
Sounds good -- I sense you have a patch?
> Compare Recommender output by order of recommendations.
> -------------------------------------------------------

> Key: MAHOUT-559
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAHOUT-559
> Project: Mahout
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Collaborative Filtering
> Reporter: Lance Norskog
> Attachments: OrderBasedRecommenderEvaluator.patch
>
>
> The existing RecommenderEvaluator
> (AverageAbsoluteDifferenceRecommenderEvaluator.java) has a very limited API.
> It evaluates a Recommender's performance on a training v.s. test scenario. It
> does not allow comparing the outputs of different recommenders against the
> same data model. Also, I could not figure out how its comparison criteria.
> OrderBasedRecommenderEvaluator compares the output of two recommenders. It
> only checks the order of the items in the recommendations, ignoring the
> returned preference values.
