 ===== Introduction ===== ===== Introduction =====
  
-Product recommendations are usually implemented by using collaborative filtering technique which recommends items by calculating similar items to the given item as well as finding similar users to whom recommendations are being made. This is very useful algorithm and is core of many big companies like amazon,​netflix etc. But the major concern with collaborative filtering is that it doesn’t handle cold start problem(eg: If user has no enrollments) well so to handle this case we need content based filtering which suggests items based on user profile.So ideally a hybrid recommendation system which implements both collaborative and content based filtering systems is required. Lightfm is the library which implements the hybrid recommendation systems.+Product recommendations are usually implemented by using collaborative filtering technique which recommends items by calculating similar items to the given item as well as finding similar users to whom recommendations are being made. This is very useful algorithm and is core of many big companies like amazon,​netflix etc. But the major concern with collaborative filtering is that it doesn’t handle cold start problem(eg: If user has no enrollments) well so to handle this we need help of content based filtering which suggests items based on user profile.So ideally a hybrid recommendation system which implements both collaborative and content based filtering systems is required. ​**Lightfm** is the library which implements the hybrid recommendation systems.

 Lightfm is a popular recommendation algorithms for both implicit and explicit feedback data.It incorporates both item and user metadata into the traditional matrix factorization algorithms. It represents each user and item as the sum of the latent representations of their features, thus allowing recommendations to generalise to new items (via item features) and to new users (via user features).Lightfm implementation is very easy and has enough documentation in the below link Lightfm is a popular recommendation algorithms for both implicit and explicit feedback data.It incorporates both item and user metadata into the traditional matrix factorization algorithms.
