Amazon's recommendation algorithm

Sunday 9 February 2003

Ever wonder how Amazon manages to produce all those recommendations all over their site? Amazon.com Recommendations: Item-to-Item Collaborative Filtering is a short paper describing their algorithm, and comparing it to other approaches that wouldn't work as well for their 29 million customer database.

Hello Ned,

I just tried to access the paper "Amazon.com Recommendations: Item-to-Item Collaborative Filtering" but the page could not be found.

Is there any other way to access that paper? I'm very interested in finding out more!

Best Regards,

Sebastian
