Apache Mahout is chosen as a machine learning library in order to build the application’s recommender. The following two tutorials were completed: Mahout Item Recommender Tutorial using Java and Eclipse as well as Creating a User-Based Recommender in 5 minutes. In order to do so, Mahout was downloaded and integrated as a library into an eclipse project. The setup was simple and the examples easy to understand. The following article sums up and compares the user-based and item-based recommender applications in Mahout: http://blog.chapagain.com.np/recommender-system-using-java-apache-mahout/

Alternatives: LibRec is Java library for recommender systems that provides several state-of-the-art recommendation algorithms. However, the library is mainly used for academic purposes and has abandoned its tutorial (http://librec.net/tutorial.html not accessible).
