Next, you will be familiarized with how to build and optimize recommender models using R. Following that, you will be given an overview of the most popular recommendation techniques. Finally, you will learn to implement all the concepts you have learned throughout the book to build a recommender system.
This is a step-by-step guide that will take you through a series of core tasks. Every task is explained in detail with the help of practical examples.
