Abstract

LensKit is a new recommender systems toolkit aiming to be a platform for recommender research and education. It provides a common API for recommender systems, modular implementations of several collaborative filtering algorithms, and an evaluation framework for consistent, reproducible offline evaluation of recommender algorithms. In this demo, we will showcase the ease with which LensKit allows recommenders to be configured and evaluated.
