Learning Neighbourhood-based Collaborative Filtering Parameters

Research output: Chapter in Book or Conference Publication/ProceedingConference Publicationpeer-review

Abstract

The work outlined in this paper uses a genetic algorithm to learn the optimal set of parameters for a neighbourhood-based collaborative filtering approach. The motivation is firstly to re-assess whether the default parameter values often used are valid and secondly to assess whether different datasets require different parameter settings. Three datasets are considered in this initial investigation into the approach: Movielens, Bookcrossing and Lastfm.
