Info2Go! Recommendation Systems 

While browsing the internet you may have seen suggestions offering "other products you might like" or "people you may know." These suggestions are made by recommendation systems, which use data to suggest relevant items to users. If you've wondered about how these recommendations work please join us for this informative session with BSU data scientist Michael Ekstrand to learn what recommendation systems are, where recommendations come from, how these recommendations relate to advertising, and how you can take (some) control over the recommendations you see.   

Presenter: Michael Ekstrand, Assistant Professor of Computer Science, Boise State University
