The Netflix Prize
نویسندگان
چکیده
In October, 2006 Netflix released a dataset containing 100 million anonymous movie ratings and challenged the data mining, machine learning and computer science communities to develop systems that could beat the accuracy of its recommendation system, Cinematch. We briefly describe the challenge itself, review related work and efforts, and summarize visible progress to date. Other potential uses of the data are outlined, including its application to the KDD Cup 2007.

Matrix factorization for the Netflix Prize
I compare two common techniques to compute matrix factorizations for recommender systems, specifically using the Netflix prize data set. Accuracy, run-time, and scalability are discussed for stochastic gradient descent and non-linear conjugate gradient.

INTRODUCTION The KDD Cup is the oldest of the many data mining competitions that are now popular [1]. It is an integral part of the annual ACM SIGKDD International Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining (KDD). In 2007, the traditional KDD Cup competition was augmented with a workshop with a focus on the concurrently active Netflix Prize competition [2]. The KDD Cup itself in 2007 con...
متن کاملCollaborative Filtering via Ensembles of Matrix Factorizations
We present a Matrix Factorization (MF) based approach for the Netflix Prize competition. Currently MF based algorithms are popular and have proved successful for collaborative filtering tasks. For the Netflix Prize competition, we adopt three different types of MF algorithms: regularized MF, maximum margin MF and non-negative MF. Furthermore, for each MF algorithm, instead of selecting the opti...
متن کاملThe Netflix Prize High Performance Computing Neural Networks Final Report
A solution for the Netflix Prize was developed based on back propagation neural networks. The solution is different than most other Collaborative Filtering techniques in that rather than perform a global dimensionality reduction, this method focuses on each desired prediction by creating an entirely new neural network for each prediction. The implementation was parallelized using MPI, achieving...
متن کاملOn the Gravity Recommendation System
The Netflix Prize is a collaborative filtering problem. This subfield of machine learning has become popular from the late 1990s with the spread of online services that use recommendation systems, such as e.g. Amazon, Yahoo! Music, and of course Netflix. The aim of such a system is to predict what items a user might like based on his/her and other users previous ratings. The dataset of Netflix ...
