Hi,
I like your code. It's concise and efficient.
But when i read the recommenders part, that's the "class UserBasedRecommender(UserRecommender)", i found the code in the method named estimated_preference can not guarantee that one neighbor's preference will multiple the his similarity rather than others.
It is the previous code:
prefs = prefs[~np.isnan(prefs)]
similarities = similarities[~np.isnan(prefs)]
prefs_sim = np.sum(prefs[~np.isnan(similarities)] *
similarities[~np.isnan(similarities)])
total_similarity = np.sum(similarities)
I take a simple example:
>>> import numpy as np
>>> p = np.array([np.nan, 3,4,5,np.nan,5,6,np.nan,9,10])
>>> p
array([ nan, 3., 4., 5., nan, 5., 6., nan, 9., 10.])
>>> s = np.array([1,np.nan,4,6,np.nan,6,7,8,9,10])
>>> s
array([ 1., nan, 4., 6., nan, 6., 7., 8., 9., 10.])
>>> p = p[~np.isnan(p)]
>>> p
array([ 3., 4., 5., 5., 6., 9., 10.])
>>> s = s[~np.isnan(p)]
>>> s
array([ 1., nan, 4., 6., nan, 6., 7.])
>>> p[~np.isnan(s)]
array([ 3., 5., 5., 9., 10.])
>>> s[~np.isnan(s)]
array([ 1., 4., 6., 6., 7.])
>>> p[~np.isnan(s)]*s[~np.isnan(s)]
array([ 3., 20., 30., 54., 70.])
it follows the steps as the code. as you can see, it gets a wrong result.
my code is like this:
temp_prefs = [~np.isnan(prefs)]
temp_similarities = [~np.isnan(similarities)]
noNaN_indices = np.logical_and(temp_prefs, temp_similarities)
prefs_sim = np.sum(prefs[noNaN_indices[0] == True] *
similarities[noNaN_indices[0] == True])
similarities = similarities[~np.isnan(similarities)]
total_similarity = np.sum(similarities)
with the same example:
>>> pp = np.array([np.nan,3,4,5,np.nan,5,6,np.nan,9,10])
>>> pp
array([ nan, 3., 4., 5., nan, 5., 6., nan, 9., 10.])
>>> ss = np.array([1,np.nan,4,6,np.nan,6,7,8,9,10])
>>> ss
array([ 1., nan, 4., 6., nan, 6., 7., 8., 9., 10.])
>>> tss = [~np.isnan(ss)]
>>> tss
[array([ True, False, True, True, False, True, True, True, True, True], dtype=bool)]
>>> tpp = [~np.isnan(pp)]
>>> tpp
[array([False, True, True, True, False, True, True, False, True, True], dtype=bool)]
>>> nonNaN = np.logical_and(tss,tpp)
>>> nonNaN
array([[False, False, True, True, False, True, True, False, True,
True]], dtype=bool)
>>> ss[nonNaN[0] == True] * pp[nonNaN[0] == True]
array([ 16., 30., 30., 42., 81., 100.])
as you can see, it gets the right answer.
if i misunderstood, please let me know. Thank you in advance.
Best Wishes
