Algorithm for SVD based recommendation engine














0












$begingroup$


I am trying to build an SVD based recommendation engine for MovieLens database. After going through multiple online tutorials and resources I have understood how SVD works if a user-rating matrix is given as an input to it. I wish to use collaborative user based prediction here.



My goal :

Train the recommendation engine using the train set (say, 70% of the entire dataset) and then predict the recommendations for the test set. And finally, compute the error in my predictions.



My doubt:

1.What is the algorithm to use the train set to train the model and then use it for predicting in the test set ?

2.If I apply SVD on the train set, then how exactly do I use the output, i.e. the three matrices (U,sigma,Vt) on the test set?
