Recommendation Systems Theory and Coding in C++

Overview

Master the essentials of building recommendation systems from scratch in C++! This course covers collaborative filtering, content-based methods, hybrid techniques, and evaluation metrics through hands-on projects and real-world applications

What you'll learn

  • Implement baseline recommendation models and similarity measures in C++
  • Build collaborative filtering systems utilizing explicit and implicit feedback
  • Apply matrix factorization and Alternating Least Squares (ALS) to recommendation data
  • Create content-based models from item features and user profiles
  • Use factorization machines to produce personalized recommendations
  • Evaluate recommendations using coverage, serendipity, novelty, and diversity
  • Compare recommendation approaches to select suitable methods for different use cases

Advantages and disadvantages

Advantages

  • University courses you can audit for free, with lectures, readings and practice quizzes.
  • A verified certificate from the university if you pay for it.
  • Self-paced: start any time.

Disadvantages

  • Graded assignments and the certificate need the paid track.
  • Audit access can expire a few weeks after the course ends.
  • Learning is free, but the certificate costs money.
  • Some parts (graded work, certificate) are paid.

Some points apply to every course of this kind; see how we rank.

Free to audit

  • Free: Choose "Audit this course" when you enrol: lectures, readings and practice are free.
  • Paid: Graded assignments and the verified certificate (Certificate $40). Audit access may end after the course closes.
