🎓 About the project

Movie Recommender recommends you top five movies based on a single entry of a movie. The project explores content based filtering of data, which is a type of recommender system that attempts to guess what a user may like based on that user’s activity. Content-based filtering makes recommendations by using keywords and attributes assigned to objects in a database. Youtube uses CBF along with other filtering techniques. The backend service is provided by streamlit and is hosted on Heroku.

The different stages of the project included:

1. Preprocessing where the data from two csv files which contained information about 4086 movies were processed for futher detailing.
2. Model building where a model was trained using the algorithm of k-nearest neighbours using CountVectorizer and cosine_similarity libraries.
3. Website building done using streamlit
4. Deployed on Heroku
