DataScience SG Meetup - RecSys, Beyond the Baseline
Eugene Yan
A data scientist presented a project on recommender systems at a DataScience SG meetup, combining traditional baselines with graph and NLP techniques applied to Amazon data. The presentation covered the full pipeline from data acquisition through implementation, optimization, and comparison of multiple recommendation approaches. The speaker published slides and accompanying articles documenting the methods and results for other practitioners to reference.
