Recommender System is a system that seeks to predict or filter preferences according to the user’s choices. Recommender systems are utilized in a variety of areas including movies, music, news, books, research articles, search queries, social tags, and products in general. Recommender systems produce a list of recommendations in any of the two ways –
Collaborative filtering: Collaborative filtering approaches build a model from the user’s past behavior (i.e. items purchased or searched by the user) as well as similar decisions made by other users. This model is then used to predict items (or ratings for items) that users may have an interest in.
Content-based filtering: Content-based filtering approaches uses a series of discrete characteristics of an item in order to recommend additional items with similar properties. Content-based filtering methods are totally based on a description of the item and a profile of the user’s preferences. It recommends items based on the user’s past preferences.
We are using Collaborative filtering technique for results.
It gives result on the basis of cosine similarities.
In the CSV file, we have following attributes - Rank,Title,Genre,Description,Director,Actors,Year,Runtime (Minutes),Rating,Votes,Revenue (Millions),Metascore
And on the basis of Director, Actors,and Genre we will be recommending movies to users.
