Detailed Description

Weighted k-nearest neighbor user-based collaborative filtering using cosine-similarity.

This recommender does NOT support incremental updates.


Member Function Documentation

virtual bool CanPredict ( int  user_id,
int  item_id 
) [inline, virtual, inherited]

Check whether a useful prediction can be made for a given user-item combination.

Parameters:
user_id the user ID
item_id the item ID
Returns:
true if a useful prediction can be made, false otherwise

Implements IRecommender.

Object Clone (  )  [inline, inherited]

create a shallow copy of the object

override void LoadModel ( string  filename  )  [inline, virtual, inherited]

Get the model parameters from a file.

Parameters:
filename the name of the file to read from

Implements ItemRecommender.

override double Predict ( int  user_id,
int  item_id 
) [inline, virtual]

Predict rating or score for a given user-item combination.

Parameters:
user_id the user ID
item_id the item ID
Returns:
the predicted score/rating for the given user-item combination

Reimplemented from UserKNN.

override void SaveModel ( string  filename  )  [inline, virtual, inherited]

Save the model parameters to a file.

Parameters:
filename the name of the file to write to

Implements ItemRecommender.

override string ToString (  )  [inline]

Return a string representation of the recommender.

The ToString() method of recommenders should list the class name and all hyperparameters, separated by space characters.

Reimplemented from UserKNN.
