Slope One (Recommendation Algorithm)

DESCRIPTION:

Ruby implementation of the Slope One recommendation algorithm. Ported from Bryan O’Sullivan's awesome Python implementation.

SYNOPSIS:

user_data = {
  "rob" => {
    "24" => 9.5,
    "Lost" => 8.2,
    "House" => 6.8
  },

  "bob" => {
    "24" => 3.7,
    "Big Bang Theory" => 2.1,
    "House" => 8.3
  },

  "tod" => {
    "24" => 9.5,
    "Lost" => 3.4,
    "House" => 5.5,
    "Big Bang Theory" => 9.3
  },

  "dod" => {
    "24" => 7.2,
    "Lost" => 5.1,
    "House" => 8.4,
    "The Event" => 7.8,
  }
}

slope_one = SlopeOne.new
slope_one.insert(user_data)
puts slope_one.predict({"House" => 3, "Big Bang Theory" => 7.5}).inspect
