This is a java project from my early days as a Computer Science student
This programm was created for my thesis project and is a test program implementing knn algorithm to use as a template for my thesis project
A Java console application that implements the factionality of the knn algorithm to find the similarity between a new user with only a few non zero ratings of some locations, find the k nearest neighbors through similarity score and then predict the ratings of the new user for the non rated locations.
- Implementing knn algorithm using these heuristics for similarity score:
- Cosine similarity
- Euclidean distance
- Manhattan distance
- Using the ratings of the k nearest neighbours the system recommends some non-rated-locations ratings
- This is a test project and an effort to implement the knn algorithm using a variety of heuristics for similarity score
- The comments to make the code understandable, are within the .java archive
- This project was written in Eclipse Java IDE
- This repository was created to show the variety of the work I did and experience I gained as a student
