Abstract

Nowadays, a Recommender System is a technology
that aims to predict preferences based on the user’s selections.
These systems are applied in numerous fields, such as movies,
music, news, books, research articles, search queries, social tags,
and various products. In this study, we use this potential tool to
predict the ratings of users’ preferences in MovieLens datasets. To
do so, we applied the matrix factorization algorithm and calculate
the RMSE as our evaluation metric. The results represent that
RMSE estimated for the train and test set are 0.83 and 0.93 that
are very close one another. This results indicates that our model
performance is well
