How does the user-based recommendation algorithm compute preference for items?

By weighting the preferences of similar users to the target user 'u' by a similarity score 's'

By taking the average rating of all items rated by the target user

By considering the preferences of users who have not rated any items

By assigning random weights to the preferences of all users

What does the running average in the user-based recommendation algorithm keep track of?

The predicted preference of the target user 'u' for item 'i'

The total number of items rated by the target user

The average similarity score between all users

The number of items not yet rated by the target user

What is the end result of a user-based recommendation algorithm?

A personalized set of recommended items for the target user 'u'

A static list of items that are popular among all users

The exact future ratings a user will give to unrated items

A ranking of users based on their similarity to the target user

On what basis are the recommended items for the target user 'u' ranked in the user-based recommendation algorithm?

By the weighted average of preferences of similar users

By the chronological order in which the items were rated

By the total number of ratings each item has received

By the alphabetical order of the item names

Which users' preferences have a higher impact on the recommendations in a user-based recommendation algorithm?

Users who are most similar to the target user 'u'

Users who have rated the most items

Users who have the highest overall rating average

All users equally, regardless of similarity

When computing recommendations for a user u on an item i they have no preference for yet, what is the first step?

Compute a similarity s between u and another user v that has a preference for i

Compute a similarity s between u and all other users

Incorporate v's preference for i, weighted by s, into a running average

Return the top items, ranked by weighted average

After computing the similarity s between users u and v for an item i, what should be done next?

Incorporate v's preference for i, weighted by s, into a running average

Compute a similarity s between u and all other users

Return the top items, ranked by weighted average

Retain the top users, ranked by similarity, as a neighborhood n

What is the purpose of retaining the top users, ranked by similarity, as a neighborhood n?

To consider a neighborhood only, instead of all other users

To compute the similarity between all users

To incorporate all users' preferences into the running average

To return the top items based on overall user preferences

What is the purpose of the 'for' loop in the code?

To print out each recommendation

To calculate the similarity score

What is the purpose of the recommended object created in Line 6?

To serve as the core of the recommender system

To calculate the similarity between items

To define a neighborhood of similar items

To initialize the data model with user interaction data

As per Line 7, what does each recommendation typically include?

The item ID and a predicted rating

The similarity score and the item ID

The user ID and the similarity score

What does the Pearson correlation coefficient measure?

The strength and direction of the linear relationship between two variables

The mean difference between two variables

The product of the standard deviations of two variables

The sum of the variances of two variables

In the Pearson correlation coefficient formula, what does cov(X, Y) represent?

The covariance of the two variables X and Y

The mean of X times the mean of Y

The variance of X minus the variance of Y

The standard deviation of X times the standard deviation of Y

What does σxσy in the denominator of the Pearson correlation coefficient formula stand for?

The product of the standard deviations of X and Y

The sum of the standard deviations of X and Y

The difference between the standard deviations of X and Y

The covariance of the standard deviations of X and Y

What does a negative Pearson correlation coefficient indicate in the context of user ratings?

As one user's preference for an item increases, the other user's preference decreases.

As one user's preference for an item increases, the other user's preference also increases.

The users have rated all items similarly.

The users have no common items rated.

What does a negative correlation sign indicate in user preferences for an item?

As one user's preference for an item increases, the other user's preference tends to decrease.

As one user's preference for an item increases, the other user's preference also increases.

As one user's preference for an item decreases, the other user's preference also decreases.

The preferences of users for an item are not related.

What is a problem with the Pearson Similarity when two users overlap on only one item?

B) The correlation is undefined.

A) A correlation can still be computed.

C) The number of items is too large to compute.

D) The preferences of the users are too different to compute.

When does Pearson Correlation similarity fail to work according to the slide?

B) When two users have the same ratings on all items.

A) When two users have different ratings on all items.

C) When there is a large number of items in which two users' preferences overlap.

D) When the preferences of the users are too similar to compute.

According to the slide, what does Pearson Similarity not take into account?

B) The number of items in which two users' preferences overlap.

A) The correlation between user preferences.

C) The difference in ratings between two users.

D) The similarity in preferences between two users.

What does Euclidean Distance represent in data analysis?

The similarity or dissimilarity between 2 data points in a multidimensional space

The maximum distance between any two points in a dataset

The average distance between all pairs of points in a dataset

The distance between the origin and a point in a multidimensional space

What does each data point represent in the context of Euclidean Distance Similarity for recommendation systems?

C) A vector in a multi-dimensional space

What is the first step in calculating the Euclidean distance similarity between two data points?

D) Take the difference between corresponding elements of two vectors

A) Square the difference between corresponding elements

B) Sum up all the squared differences

C) Take the square root of the sum of squared differences

What does a smaller Euclidean distance between two data points indicate in the context of recommendation systems?

C) No relation to similarity or dissimilarity

How is the final similarity result obtained after calculating the Euclidean distance?

C) By taking one over one plus the square root of the sum of squared differences

A) By taking the sum of the squared differences

B) By taking the square root of the sum of squared differences

D) By squaring the sum of the squared differences
