ANDs and ORs can be mixed by how you formulate the query. Before the Universal Recommender v0.6.0 (soon to be released) you could only have rules that cause inclusion, with 0.6.0 you will be able to exclude things based on their properties.
BEWARE, onerous business rules often cause a decrease in lift from the recommender. I’ve seen people get 0 lift because of too many business rule restrictions.

It seems that this cannot be done in the version you mentioned, since the query is used as "and" but not "or"? Any advice? Thank you so much!

They are implemented now when you set in inclusion field in the query of “id”: [“id1”, “id2”< …] This is undocumented because it is a bad idea—read on. I warn you that this will restrict recommendations so much that it will not be worth making recommendations. You are telling the recommender to go through a bunch of work to create the best recommendations then throw them all away and rank the few items you have whitelisted. It may be that none of the whitelisted items are able to be recommended to begin with so you may get no recs. If you simply want to rank things on your whitelist, use popularity or something that will be more likely to give you recommendations and even then, this will often lead to conversion lift of 0 so be careful.

And I wonder if the following situation can be realized by the engine. First, an item can be set with either whitelist or blacklist property (but not both), and the elements in the lists is something like category. The recommendation will only contain those items with from whitelist if whitelist property exists; on the other hand, if blacklist property presents, then those with property from blacklist will never be in the query result. Is this possible? Thank you all! Best regards, Amy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "actionml-user" group.
