It learns the pattern of user content consumption, predicting what he will consume in the future based on similar items to those he has shown interest. It considers similarity with neighbor users, thus creating a user model. Content-based filtering, collaborative filtering, and memory-based on hybrid filtering techniques are used. Content-based filtering allows to extract the fundamental features or attributes of the items and select similar items. Moreover, it proposes predicted classifications for the items of interest not yet classified by the active user. Collaborative filtering allows applying the kNN methodology to identify the similarity between the active user located in the neighborhood and propose predicted classifications for items of interest not yet classified. Hybrid filtering combines the two methodologies to overcome their drawbacks. A weighted approach is applied, allowing a dynamic linear combination of collaborative and content-based filtering. The results obtained were empirically relevant in the experimental evaluation, matching with the results presented in similar studies validated with RMSE metrics.engInformation systemsRecommender systemsHuman centered computingUser ModelsWeb-based interactionjournal article10.1007/978-981-19-2394-4_2
