Content-Based Recommendation

Content-Based Recommendation

Content-Based Recommendation is one of the most common recommendation techniques used in Machine Learning.

Instead of relying on user ratings or browsing history, a content-based system recommends items that have similar characteristics to the selected item.

In this project, the recommendation system compares the textual content of news articles and recommends articles discussing similar topics.

Some advantages include:

  • Does not require user history.
  • Generates personalized recommendations.
  • Works well with textual datasets.
  • Easy to understand and implement.

Content-Based Filtering is particularly suitable for news recommendation because news articles contain rich textual information.
