Abstract
A system and method to navigate through a media item catalog and generate recommendations using behavioral metrics such as correlation metrics (FIGS.) from a knowledge base () of mediasets (FIG.-). One implementation uses a knowledge base comprising a collection of mediasets such as groupings of selected video items. Various metrics (Metric-Metric m) among media items (m. . . ) are considered by analyzing how the media items are grouped to form the sets in the knowledge base (). Such metrics preferably are stored in a matrix () that allows the system to dynamically build appropriate navigation lists (FIG.) from media items that a user selects (FIG.).
