looking to create a movie recommender, any resources I should look at? I have created a recommendations system (in SQL) with Pearson Correlation awhile ago.
A long time ago, a nameless/blameless Clojure person and I used the https://lenskit.org from Clojure, this was ad-hoc, unfinished, unpublished work done while we were taking a Recommender Systems MOOC. Looks like LensKit has transitioned to Python, if LensKit seems interesting, you might take a look at the feasibility of accessing it via https://github.com/clj-python/libpython-clj, or not 🙂
This article about recommender systems was posted recently, you may find it interesting https://findka.com/blog/rec-sys-in-30-lines/
