This repo shows a set of Jupyter Notebooks demonstrating a variety of movie recommendation systems for the MovieLens 1M dataset. The dataset contain 1,000,209 anonymous ratings of approximately 3,900 movies made by 6,040 MovieLens users who joined MovieLens in 2000.

Here are the different notebooks:

• Data Processing: Loading and processing the users, movies, and ratings data to prepare them for input into my models.
• Content-Based and Collaborative Filtering: Using the Content-Based and Collaborative Filtering approach
• SVD Model: Using the SVD approach
• Deep Learning Model: Using the Deep Learning approach
