No problem.
Thank you for the advice. One problem I am trying to tackle is how to generate recommendations for a user that are also similar to a particular item. An idea that comes to mind is that I could generate a set of recommendations for a user, then generate a set of similar items to the target item, and take the intersection of that set, but that seems kind of hacky.
Is there a good way to achieve this?
One thing you could do is rank items by a weighed average of the user-item recommendation score and the item-item similarity score.
If you do that, you may want to make sure to normalize the user-item recommendation scores appropriately, for example by transforming them into percentiles. User-item scores out of the LightFM model do not have a guaranteed range or scale (as that is irrelevant for ranking items for any particular user).
Hi, This not really an issue but just a request for advice. A start-up I am working for is trying to create a recommender system for recommending files to users. We only have implicit feedback (when and how many times a file is accessed by a user). I had a couple of questions regarding how we can use LightFM for our problem.
I'd appreciate any advice regarding this. I am a beginner at building recommendation systems. Thank you!
