Systems and methods for filtering techniques using metadata and usage data analysis

摘要

A system and method for maintaining a model representing similarity between media assets. A control circuit receives a first vector of values for the first media asset and a second vector of values for the second media asset. The control circuit determines whether the user has viewed both the first and second media assets. In response to determining that the user has watched both assets, the control circuit represents a modeled similarity value that represents the modeled similarity between the first media asset and the second media asset. Determine. The control circuit reads an observed similarity value that represents the observed similarity between the first media asset and the second media asset based on the metadata and usage data about the asset. The control circuit determines a modeling error value based on the modeled similarity value and the observed similarity value.
