I was at the bookstore looking for book recommendations online when I thought of using the newly learned skills from workshops a hackathon project
It recommends the reader with the top 5 books related to their interests that other readers have in common (just like how Instagram & Facebook recommendation system works) and helps them get the book from the wide range of choices.
Built it using different tech and tools like: Kaggle Notebook, numpy, pandas, gensim, sklearn, cosine_similarity
Had to debug a lot of things during the entire coding. Had to clean data a lot for efficiency and ran into numerous error as python was not my coding strength
Proud of using all the newly learned skills from workshops in this project, SUCCESSFULLY!
A lot of new skills and improved coding & debugging abilities
Stay tuned! ~This is going to be upgraded with Hybrid based filtering method (current version uses Collaborative based). Moreover, a new frontend GUI will be provided.
