Recommendation Systems - Learn Python for Data Science #3

from Siraj Raval

In this video, we build our own recommendation system that suggests movies a user would like in 40 lines of Python using the LightFM recommendation library. I start off by talking about why we need recommendation systems, then we dive straight into installing our dependencies and writing our script.
