Technical requirements
Most parts of this chapter require access to the DataRobot software. The code example is based on a relatively small dataset, Book-Crossing, consisting of three tables, whose manipulation was carried out with Jupyter Notebook.
Check out the following video to see the Code in Action at https://bit.ly/3HxcNUL.
Book-Crossing dataset
The example used to illustrate the use of DataRobot in building recommendation systems is based on the Book-Crossing dataset by Cai-Nicolas Ziegler and colleagues. This dataset was accessed at http://www2.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/~cziegler/BX/.
Note
Before using this dataset, the authors of this book have informed the owner of the dataset about its use in this book.
