Abstract

This paper presents two different methods for diversifying recommendations that were developed as part of the ESWC2014 challenge. Both methods focus on post-processing recommendations provided by the baseline recommender system and have increased the ILD at the cost of final precision (measured with F@20). The authors feel that this method has potential yet requires further development and testing.
