Recommendation-System

Overview

CF.py：Item-based collaborative filtering algorithm.

ICCF.py：Introduce item clustering into collaborative filtering algorithm.

SVD.py：Singular Value Decomposition algorithm.

data_manager.py：Data process related class.

multiProcess.py: Concurrently calculate Pearson Correlation Coefficient by Ratings and Euclidean Distance by Tag Genomes.

Utilizing the Project

Previously run multiProcess.py to calculate correlation coefficients and save them locally. Then use CF.py, ICCF.py or SVD.py to train different recommendation models.
