RWW Live: Recommendation Engines
ReadWriteWeb has been running a special series on recommendation engines and this episode of RWW Live is part of that.
The show features 3 exciting and very knowledgeable guests: Jesús Pindado, Strands Vice President, Business Solutions; Yosi Glick, Jinni CEO & Co-Founder; and David Selinger, richrelevance CEO & Co-Founder, who previously led the R&D arm of Amazon’s Data Mining and Personalization team.
As usual I host RWW Live (for full disclosure as my day job I’m also Co-Founder & CEO of mSpoke, a startup offering a recommendation engine for content publishers). Also joining the call were ReadWriteWeb’s Richard MacManus and Bernard Lunn.
Some of the topics discussed in the show:
- Draw backs / problems (referring to our recent post 5 Problems of Recommender Systems)
- Measuring effectiveness of recommendation systems
- Opportunities our guests see for innovation in the space
