Recommender Systems Complete Course Beginner to Advanced - Deep Learning Foundation for Recommender Systems: Inference M

The video tutorial explains the inference mechanism in recommendation systems, focusing on three main steps: candidate generation, candidate ranking, and filtering. Candidate generation involves pairing users with potential items based on user-item similarity. Candidate ranking assesses the likelihood of user interest in these items, considering both item similarity and individual preferences. Filtering then selects the items most likely to be enjoyed by the user. The tutorial concludes with a brief introduction to incorporating deep learning models into recommendation systems.
