Re: Cosine Similarity and LogLikelihood not helpful for implicit feedback!

How are you using LLR to compute user similarity? It is normally used to compute item similarity? Also, what is your scale? how many users? how many items? how many actions per user? On Mon, Sep 29, 2014 at 6:24 PM, Parimi Rohit wrote: > Hi, > > I am exploring a random-walk based algorithm

Yes. But I strongly suggest that you not use Pearson Correlation. Use the LLR similarity to compute indicator actions for each vendor. Then use a user's history of actions to score vendors. This is not only much simpler than what you are asking for, it will be more accurate. You should also me

@Pat and @Ted Thank You so much for the replay. I was looking for the solution as Pat suggested, here I want to suggest the Vendors to the User which he not yet used by User taking the history of that User and compare with other user who have rated the common vendors. If we take the table in that

Hi, I am exploring a random-walk based algorithm for recommender systems which works by propagating the item preferences for users on the user-user graph. To do this, I have to compute user-user similarity and form a neighborhood. I have tried the following three simple techniques to compute the s

I would recommend that you look at actions other than ratings as well. Did a user expand and read 1 review? did they read >3 reviews? Did they mark a rating as useful? Did they ask for contact information? You know your system better than I possibly could, but using other information in additi

You have users, services, and vendors. You should decide what you want to recommend. Service? Vendor? Service of Vendor? Assuming the latter combine the services and vendors into a single ID space: vendor1-service1, vendor1-service2 … Then decide what method you want to create recs. We are gene

Hello everyone, I have previously asked a question about Streaming K Means examples, and got an answer that there are not so many available. Can anyone give me example of how to call Streaming K Means clustering for a dataset, and how to get the results? What are the results, are they the s
