SOFT COMPUTING PROJECT

A hybrid approach to improving a collaborative filtering based movie recommendation system performace using kNN & genetic algorithm.

• main.cpp contains all the implemented algorithms.
• userdatageneration.cpp creates random user ratings of the movies.
• movie.txt is a dataset of movie titles.

HOW TO RUN THIS PROJECT?

First, run userdatageneration.cpp to create random user ratings of the movies. Then run main.cpp to get recommendations for a particular user based on similar users found.

TASKS

• Implement kNN
• Create Indian movies dataset
• Save the similar user ratings as .bin file
• Write paper
