The evaluation of a hybrid recommender system for recommendation of movies

Main information
In this paper we present our approach to generation of movie recommendations. The idea of our hybrid approach is to first separately generate predicted ratings for movies using the contentbased and collaborative recommender modules. Predicted ratings from both recommender engines are then combined into final classification by the hybrid recommender using weighted voting scheme. The basis for the calculations are Pearson’s correlation coefficient, True Bayesian prediction and M5Rules decision rules. The evaluation of the system performance was based on the EachMovie data corpus, for around 7000 users. Preliminary results show that this approach works really well, while there is still some room for improvement.
