Artist-Recommedation-System

A very basic recommendation program that recommends artists to users based on hybrid=collaborative+content based model.

Part of Siraj Raval's weekly programming challenge.

Getting Started

I would recommend using Linux/Mac for this as installing the dependency lightfm on Windows is nearly impossible.

Please follow Siraj's tutorial video to get started.

Dependencies

• lightfm
• numpy
• matplotlib

Editor

• Sublime Text 2

Running the code.

From terminal/command prompt -

Usage

python main.py

Result

The challenge was to check for a bunch of classifiers which performs better. Here I have used matplotlib to plot a horizational bar graph and compare different classifiers in terms of accuracy.
