Sean Owen commented on MAHOUT-541:
----------------------------------

Am I right that Sebastian's latest changes kind of incorporate this? The last 
patch here deals with ExpectationMaximizationSVD but Sebastian moved this out 
to ExpectationMaximizationSVDFactorizer. Is this effectively rolled into what 
SS did?

> I thought I'd put up this implementation of the popular SVD algorithm for 
> recommender systems. It is based on the SVD implementation, but instead of 
> computing each user and each item matrix, it trains the model iteratively, 
> which was the original version that Simon Funk proposed.  The advantage of 
> this implementation is that you don't have to recalculate the dot product of 
> each user-item pair for each training cycle, they can be cached, which speeds 
> up the algorithm considerably.
