Hi Sean, Let me share how i have done it. Is it possible to increase and give recommendation based on user preference selection? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IDRescorer rescorer = new UserSpecificIDsRescorer(map);
ItemSimilarity similarity = new LogLikelihoodSimilarity(model); recommender = new GenericItemBasedRecommender(model, similarity, new UserSpecificItemsStrategy(map), //custom new CategorizedItemsStrategy()); //custom result = recommender.recommend(user, howMany, rescorer); Map<Long, RecommendedItem> recommendMap = Maps.newHashMap(); updateMap() in my map local. recommender = new SlopeOneRecommender(model); result = recommender.recommend(user, howMany, rescorer); updateMap() in my map local. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Regards, cleophus ________________________________ From: Sean Owen [mailto:sro...@gmail.com] Sent: Fri 7/13/2012 4:29 PM To: user@mahout.apache.org Subject: Re: Need help on Mahout Recommendation - using Preferences SlopeOneRecommender does not use an ItemSimilarity, what are you referring to ? User and item ID must be an integer (long). You use the IDRescorer to do exactly the query-time filtering you describe. The recommender will give you as many recs as you ask for, unless it is not possible to calculate more than that. There are simply not even 50 eligible items to recommend in your data set sometimes.
