Attribute-Based Item Similarity Using Collaborative Filtering Techniques

摘要

A system and method to compute attribute-based similarity between items using collaborative filtering techniques are described. Events input by a user over a network are received, the events further including a plurality of items and associated item metadata. A similarity value is further computed between each pair of items within the plurality of stems based on corresponding attributes of each item stored within the item metadata. Finally, recommendations of the items to the user are presented based on the corresponding calculated similarity value.
