Respected Sir ,
I am Venkatesh , a Computer Science student from India. I am interested in
contributing to the project "Alternatives to neighborhood-based
collaborative filtering".
I have been reading about a few matrix factorization models for the same.
One of the models that I propose to implement is the modified SVD
,(SVD++) that makes use of implicit feedback using classes from mlpack::svd
namespace for recommendation.
The method is well described here (here) .

Also I propose to implement models that use time factors , (like the rating
drop of a movie over time etc). Other models that would be implemented
includes the weight based kNN (that is mentioned in the project
description). The data that I would be using to test my models would be
from Netflix
and Kaggle. I have been working with C++ for the past 5 years and am good
with implementation. I request for your valuable suggestions / additional
methods.
I also thank you for contributing to this wonderful project - mlpack.
Thank you.
