  • For one thing, we are using content analysis, classification and autotagging to help identify relevant content. We use incoming links and attention to determine how much authority a particular entry has on a topic.

Content analysis and the cold-start problem - Duke Listens! - 0 views

  • A classic problem in traditional collaborative filtering recommendation is the 'cold start' problem. It is hard to generate recommendations for new items because there isn't enough taste data about the new items to make reliable correlations with other items. That's where content analysis comes in. The cold start problem can be alleviated by basing recommendations on similarity of content as well as the wisdom of the crowds. New items can be analyzed and enrolled into a recommender, making these items available and recommendable.

    The cold-start problem is common in tranditional CF system. Conten analysis comes in to prevent form suffering from cold-start.

  • Any human being that has to make decisions in real-time will be under a lot of stress.
  • Capitalism is about opportunities. Whenever there is a gap, there is an opportunity to bridge it.
  • Lets face it, we are obsessed with real-time. We want more, and faster. It is not enough for me to have you tell me what you did yesterday. I want to know what you did 5 minutes ago.

      Lova and passion help us on top of whatever you name it.
  • The bad news is that real-time is not going away. We are not going to settle for less than right now.
  • Real-time is not only stressful, it is addictive.
  • So for better or worse, we are rushing forward through the sea of information towards more stress.

    Though most managers understand intellectually that time is their scarcest resource, few make the effort to gain a strategic perspective on how they spend their hours each week. Still fewer make a regular practice of keeping track of how the priorities they say are most important jibe with the way they actually spend their time. "Those we label natural born leaders know how to leverage their time," writes Warren Blank in The 108 Skills of Natural Born Leaders (Amacom, 2001). For those in whom this talent is not innate, here's how to do it.

  • With Pagerank, Google took a very different approach. Instead of considering each page in isolation, they examined the link structure of the entire web and computed a global evaluation of that structure. In other words, they began looking at the entire forest instead of just the individual trees.
