Project Topic Proposal: iFixit Recommender System
28/12/11 18:11 Filed in: 481
The ifixit Web site offers instructions for repairs of all kinds of devices, and has recently been expanded to allow the submission of user-generated instructions. The company, co-funded by a CSC alumnus, is interested in adding a recommendation facility that would offer user suggestions such as other devices or repairs they may be interested in, or parts and tools that are suitable for the repair. They currently have recommendations for the latter, but they are not very sophisticated.
