Word of Mouse: The Marketing Power of Collaborative Filtering.
Over the past decade, recommender systems employing collaborative filtering technology have evolved from research proofs-of-concept to commonplace components of e-commerce web sites and direct marketing. At the same time, research has moved forward to embrace more sophisticated algorithms and more detailed exploration of both the user experience and online community issues. This talk reviews recent highlights from the decade-old GroupLens Research Project, including an overview of the techniques used in recommendation and recent results on the social and design issues surrounding participation in online communities.
