  10. Content Based Collaborative Filtering Knowledge Based Types of recommender system http://www.umiacs.umd.edu/~jimmylin/INFM700-2008 Spring/presentations/recommender_systems.ppt.

  11. Recommend items based on user’s past preferences. Items/content usually denoted by keywords. Matching “user preferences” with “item characteristics” … works for textual information. User profile is the key. Content Based

  13. Recommend items based on ratings of users sharing similar interests. Collaborative filtering systems can produce personal recommendations by computing the similarity between your preference and the one of other people. More users, more ratings: better results.
