MOVIEMENDER- A MOVIE RECOMMENDER SYSTEM

In today’s digital world where there is an endless variety of content to be consumed like books, videos, articles, movies, etc., finding the content of one’s liking has become an irksome task. On the other hand digital content providers want to engage as many users on their service as possible for the maximum time. This is where recommender system comes into picture where the content providers recommend users the content according to the users’ liking. In this paper we have proposed a movie recommender system MovieMender. The objective of MovieMender is to provide accurate movie recommendations to users. Usually the basic recommender systems consider one of the following factors for generating recommendations; the preference of user (i.e content based filtering) or the preference of similar users (i.e collaborative filtering). To build a stable and accurate recommender system a hybrid of content based filtering as well as collaborative filtering will be used.
