  • Experimental design
    • Goal: Measure the effectiveness of the signup process
    • Metrics:
      • User effort - How hard was it to sign up
      • Accuracy - How well can the system make recommendations to the users
    • Reults
      • Random/Classique perform worst
      • Popularity, (log) Popularity * Entropy, Item-Item personalized strategies give the reasonable performance on both metrics

Evaluation of strategies over both experiments on user effort and accuracy metrics
