A: yes
   for the user mentioned:
      query: field=view;q=“13 14” 
   this will return 1, 2, 5
   These are  purchase recommendations, “other people like you also purchased 
these”

B: 
   query: 
      field=purchase;q=“15”
      field=view;q=“14, 15”
   this returns 1, 5 so the recommendations are 1 and 5, which have item ids of 
11 and 16. You do *not* look up the indicators for 1 and 5, you recommend the 
items that 1 and 5 represent.

The way you have it set up the result of the query will be your DB key that you 
call Fields/indexNo. The itemid is a foreign or external key that you have you 
DB index also so you can look up the items by that if you wish.

The query is a two field query:

field purchase; q=“user’s history of purchases”
field view: q=“user’s history of views”

This will return an ordered list of items “other people with similar taste also 
liked these”. Either field query can be empty.

For “other items like this” when you are viewing an item use that items 
interactions history in the query or just lookup the similar items in the 
indicator matrices.

Remember what you are calling “views" are really "purchase-view" cross 
cooccurrences so they recommend _purchase_ not view. Your #B below is 
recommending purchases.

If you want to recommend views create a view-only indicator matrix. But this is 
probably not what you want to do. You want to “predict” what your user may want 
to purchase, right?

Hi all/Pat,

        I have created index by Solr, user two actions: purchase and view, 
index looks like this:

Fields/indexNo  |       itemId  |       purchase        |       view
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        
1               |       11      |       12 13 14 15     |       12 13 14 15 16
2               |       12      |       13 18 19        |       12 13 18 17 19
3               |       13      |       20 21 22        |       11 10 12 20 21 
22
4               |       15      |                       |       20 21
5               |       16      |       15 16           |       14 15 16 10 18
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

        A. If a user’s view history : 13 and 14, now recommended for him - 
"other people also viewed these items":

                Solr Query: q:view=13 or q:view=14, will be return the line 
1,2,5 index data, use "view" field together is OK? 


        B. If a user’s view history : 14 and 15, and purchase history : 15, now 
recommended for him - "other people also purchased these items":

                Solr Query: (q:view=14 or q:view=15) and (q:purchase=15), will 
be return the line 1,5 index data, use "purchase" field together is OK? 
recommendation are : 12,13,14,15,15,16.


        The above is that right? If it’s right, the "itemId" field is never 
used.
        And the "indexNo" number order is important? there is no use.



Thanks,
chepoo
