Are you doing any machine learning? Are you using an Amazon style recommendation system where instead of recommending people based on overall rating you're looking for poeple user's like me rated highly (based on the ratings we've given to other people so far and our declared goals for the site?)
- HumanamuH 14y agoI am not doing any machine learning (yet). If the site takes off a bit and generates some data, I expect optimizing the prediction algorithm will become a top priority. Accurately predicting human relationships sounds incredibly hard. Currently, it's looking how similar your ratings are to the ratings of others. Similar people will influence your predictions more strongly. The declared goals or intentions are currently not affecting predictions. And I'm doubtful if they should. Any opinion on this?
