Collaborative filtering models for recommendations systems Nikhil Johri, Zahan Malkani, and Ying Wang Abstract— Modern retailers frequently use recommen- term collaborative filtering to indicate that people dation systems to suggest products of interest to a implicitly collaborate by recording their reactions to collection of consumers. A closely related task is ratings documents, enabling others to make decisions based prediction, in which the system predicts a numerical rat- on those reactions. ing that a user will assign to a product . In this paper, Our work is based on two broad categories of we build three ratings prediction models for a dataset of collaborative filtering: similarity methods and matrix products and users from A and Y. We evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of each model, and factorization [6].
