Abstract
The video recommendation system provided with an on-line connection system generates on-line video recommendations using collaborative filtering for clusters of member profiles. The recommendation system clusters member profiles using member profile information as clustering criteria. The video recommendations are then generated for a given cluster, based on aggregation of video viewing history recorded for the member profiles that are in the given cluster, using the video similarity matrix. In order to produce video recommendations for a particular member profile, the recommendation system first determines cluster membership for the member profile, retrieves recommendations generated for that cluster, and provides recommendations to the associated member. A user interface including references to one or more recommended videos is rendered on a display device of a viewer.
