Cofi: A Java-Based Collaborative Filtering Library - Summary
This group is not part of the GNU Project.
Collaborative filtering is the process of predicting ratings based on a
database of ratings from various users. It is widely applicable to
e-Commerce, e-Learning, and so on.
Currently, programmers who want to use collaborative filtering have to
read the literature and implement their own algorithms. More often than
not, programmers probably design their own algorithms and they will
generally produce suboptimal algorithms. We want to build a foundation
of already tested algorithms and documented that can be used in a wide
range of contexts from research to applications.
The guiding principle is that the design should be thin. Cofi doesn't want
to be all things for all people. So the focus is on delivering very few lines
of code, and to rely on the programmer for providing the necessary glue.
