Conclusion
• We will implement a number of collaborative filtering algorithms in matlab.
• You will learn: Clustering; Matrix factorization & Principal Components Analysis; Regression; Classification: naive Bayes classifier, decision trees, neural networks
• We will work with real world data from netflix, stock-portfolio management, and more.
• But most of all: this will be fun!
