Hello list, is it possible to filter out some items/users from the recommendation-process?
In some cases one does not want to include information from some sources in special situations. As an example you can imagine an onlineshop. If you click on the category "women" it would be the best to only show recommendations for this main-category rather than also showing some stuff for men. A Rescorer could be a solution to filter out those unwanted results *after* the big part is done (am I correct?), however I do not want to spend ressources on computing probabilities for items that are definitly unwanted for the resultset. What I want is something like a SELECT col1, col2, col3 FROM myData WHERE category = "women" OR category = "subcategoryOfWomen" and than do the computation on top of this dataset. Is this possible with Mahout?
