A Python library and collection of Jupyter notebooks with best practices for building, evaluating, and operationalizing recommendation systems, from classic algorithms like ALS to deep learning models like xDeepFM. It is a Linux Foundation AI & Data project providing utilities for data preparation, model selection, offline evaluation, and production deployment.

Use cases

• build a recommendation system in python
• compare recommender algorithms like ALS and xDeepFM
• evaluate recommendation models with offline metrics
• tune hyperparameters for a recommendation model
• deploy a recommendation model to production
• learn best practices for recommender systems
• split and prepare data for recommendation algorithms

When to choose

• you want ready-made implementations and notebooks for classic and deep learning recommenders
• you need utilities for dataset loading, train/test splitting, and offline evaluation of recommendations
• you want to prototype and operationalize recommendation models on Azure or Kubernetes

When to avoid

• you need a turnkey production recommendation service with no ML coding
• your use case is general machine learning unrelated to recommendations
• you require a framework outside the Python/Spark ecosystem
